商品描述

This book examines the contemporary state of the capitalist economyand its future trajectory in a world characterized by multiple crises from population growth to ecological damage.

Setting an understanding of modern capitalism in global historical context, chapters consider the uncertainty of capitalism's future and argues that capitalism must adapt dramatically to survive.. The book examines the major problems that a capitalist system faces, including inequality, organized crime, uncontrolled technological development, polarizing geopolitics, food security and climate change. To address these multifaceted challenges andminimize the impact of capitalism in exacerbating them, the book discusses the potential viability of a 'steady state' economic model and a de-growth approach to the global economy. It also considers various alternative models for the future, including eco-socialism and participatory socialism. This book deftly weaves together perspectives on a wide variety of issues and will be a useful resource for scholars interested in Marxist economics and heterodox economics, political economy, economic development and economic thought.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了當代資本主義經濟的現狀以及在一個充滿多重危機的世界中的未來走向,從人口增長到生態破壞等問題。將對現代資本主義的理解置於全球歷史背景下,各章節考慮了資本主義未來的不確定性,並主張資本主義必須進行戲劇性的適應才能生存下去。本書探討了資本主義體系面臨的主要問題,包括不平等、有組織犯罪、無法控制的技術發展、極化的地緣政治、食品安全和氣候變化。為了應對這些多方面的挑戰並減少資本主義對其加劇的影響,本書討論了「穩定狀態」經濟模型和全球經濟的減長方法的潛在可行性。它還考慮了未來的各種替代模型,包括生態社會主義和參與式社會主義。本書巧妙地結合了對各種問題的觀點,對於對馬克思主義經濟學和異端經濟學、政治經濟學、經濟發展和經濟思想感興趣的學者來說,將是一個有用的資源。
