| Sommario/riassunto: | As the destructive tendencies of the current profit-driven economic model become daily more self-evident, there is a growing demand for a fairer economic alternative. Reclaiming Public Ownership goes beyond traditional leftist arguments about the relative merits of free markets and central planning to present a radical new conception of public ownership, framed around economic democracy and public participation. A timely reconsideration of a long-standing but essential topic. |
