Socialism for Soloists
Angebote / Angebote:
Socialism has made a comeback, particularly among the young. Rising generations, however, are unlikely to embrace socialism if it ignores their yearning for individual autonomy. So why should 'soloists' embrace socialism?
William Edmundson argues in this highly original new book that there are, in fact, good reasons for even the most resolute of individualists to embrace socialism. Political equality is precarious in an economy where the means of production - which today include not only the highway system and the currency and the power grid, and so on, but also platforms and networks like Amazon, Facebook, and Google - are privately owned. Socialism is therefore essential to protect the basic liberal rights and freedoms that underpin our social contract.
This pathbreaking defence of liberal democratic socialism will be essential reading not only for all on the left, but also for students and scholars of liberalism, libertarianism, socialism and the social contract.
