System Crash

📖 The Scoop

It seems as if we face crisis after crisis. Financial meltdowns have triggered seemingly permanent stagnation. Wars are shaking the global order. Inequality grows staggeringly greater by the year. Unchecked global warming threatens our very existence. Our governments seem too hollow and tired to offer any solutions.
It s all true and System Crash explains why it s happening. Step by step, the authors lead readers through these compounding crises to reveal their roots in the essentially pathological character of neoliberal capitalism, with its insatiable hunger for growth and refusal to account for consequences. The system, they argue, is unreformable leaving humanity at a crossroads. Do we choose a descent into war, barbarism, and climate catastrophe? Or do we choose collective action, a movement to overthrow the lords of capital and build a new world based on democracy, equality, and solidarity?
Pugnacious, pointed, and unabashedly apocalyptic, System Crash lays bare the causes of the many problems we face and sounds a clarion call for real, lasting, fundamental change."
