Four Futures -- Life After Capitalism by Peter Frase

[ancianita]

This 156-page mapping of four possible futures for the world and America, this is a discussion of four ways the post-capitalist world might look.

Published by Jacobin's editor (available on Amazon), it's a short, dense book that looks at futures run by
equality and abundance (communism),
hierarchy and abundance (rentism),
equality and scarcity (socialism) and
hierarchy and scarcity (exterminism).

So far, our global leaders are colluding with forces of capitalism that will start, if not end, in a frame of exterminism.

It's not an easily accessible read for the everyone, but it's well written. It informs us of paths for decision making, and it is worth the effort.
