"Capitalism appears invincible and inevitable. It is not." Clara Mattei insightfully highlights its fragility and restores hope that things could be different.
The economy is sold as pure and impartial: scientific, neutral, precise. This urgent book reveals its true role: to convince us that there is no alternative to capitalism. We live in a world dominated by the dogma that austerity is necessary, unemployment is natural, endless wars are inevitable, and central banks are all-powerful. But it doesn't have to be this way.
In her bold, pioneering manifesto, economist Clara E. Mattei uncovers the system of our economy. She analyzes key concepts such as growth, inflation, unemployment, and balanced budgets to show how they are used as tools to enforce dependence on the market, not freedom, depriving us of the power to shape the democratic decisions that govern our daily lives.
Persistent problems like poverty and inequality are not accidents or errors of the economy, but central features – justified by pseudoscientific models to support a system that injustices the people with the most resources.
Why accept this? According to Mattei, capitalism is not inevitable, scientific, or natural – it is a relatively new system that can be replaced. Inspired by a legacy of political resistance, Escape from Capitalism calls us to challenge the broken economy of our time, and to open the path toward liberation.
