Democracy At Work Book Cover Democracy At Work: A Cure For Capitalism

By Richard Wolff

In "Democracy at Work"," Richard Wolff argues that capitalism is a failed system, that democracy is the only viable alternative. Capitalism has created a world of inequality, insecurity, and environmental destruction. Democracy at Work offers a vision of a better future, a future in which the economy is democratically owned and controlled by the people who work in it. Wolff's book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the problems with capitalism and the potential of democracy.

Why Capitalism is a Failed System

Wolff argues that capitalism is a failed system because it is based on the exploitation of workers. Under capitalism, the owners of capital (the capitalists) make their profits by paying workers less than the value of what they produce. This creates a system of inequality, in which the capitalists get rich while the workers remain poor.

Capitalism is also a system of insecurity. Workers are constantly worried about losing their jobs, their homes, and their healthcare. This insecurity makes it difficult for people to plan for the future and to live their lives to the fullest.

Finally, capitalism is a system of environmental destruction. The pursuit of profit leads businesses to pollute the environment and to destroy natural resources. This environmental destruction threatens the health of our planet and the well-being of future generations.

Democracy at Work

Wolff argues that democracy at work is the only viable alternative to capitalism. Democracy at work is a system in which the economy is democratically owned and controlled by the people who work in it. This means that workers would have a say in the decisions that are made about their workplace, including decisions about wages, hours, and working conditions.

Democracy at work would create a more just and equitable economy. Workers would be able to share in the profits that they produce, and they would have more control over their own lives. Democracy at work would also create a more secure economy. Workers would have a vested interest in the success of their workplace, and they would be less likely to lose their jobs.

Finally, democracy at work would create a more sustainable economy. Workers would be more likely to make decisions that are in the best interests of the environment and of future generations.

Democracy at work is a vision of a better future, a future in which the economy is democratically owned and controlled by the people who work in it. Wolff's book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the problems with capitalism and the potential of democracy.
