1. How Will Capitalism End?
Essays on a Failing System
The book explores the inherent contradictions and systemic issues within capitalism, arguing that these flaws could lead to its eventual demise. It examines how economic stagnation, rising inequality, and political instability are symptoms of deeper structural problems that capitalism cannot resolve. The author suggests that the relentless pursuit of profit and growth is unsustainable, leading to social and economic crises. Through a critical analysis of contemporary economic and political trends, the book questions the viability of capitalism's future and considers the potential for alternative systems.
