  1. 1. After Capitalism

    Economic Democracy in Action

    This book critiques capitalism’s concentration of wealth, social injustice, and ecological destruction and argues for a nonviolent transition to economic democracy grounded in grassroots movements, cooperatives, and community-controlled institutions. Blending political analysis with spiritual and ethical perspectives, it outlines practical steps—worker ownership, public banking, participatory budgeting, local currencies, land reform, and ecological limits—to build a solidarity economy that prioritizes human well-being and environmental sustainability. Drawing on case studies and freedom movements, it emphasizes cultural change, nonviolent organizing, and decentralized, participatory structures as the pathway from the current system to a more just, resilient, and cooperative society.
