| Sumario: | "Geert Reuten offers an alternative to contemporary capitalism. The book sets out a detailed design of a democratic society organised in worker cooperatives (Part One) and an equally detailed democratic transition to it (Part Two). Workers constitute the single economic class. Unlike in capitalism, there is no class that owns the means of production. The legal structure of worker cooperatives is such that workers have full rights to the fruits of the cooperative without owning it, and yet the state does not own the cooperatives either. Worker councils in the economic and state domains vote on all economically relevant matters. There is free choice of occupation and of specific consumer goods, more so than in capitalism"-- Provided by publisher. |
