Klappentext

This book provides a comprehensive political, economic, and historical analysis of the events and circumstances from the 1920s to 2010 that impacted the rise of today’s "Global Capitalist Crises," Global Economic Crises, and the U.S.’ "Second Great Depression." It argues that liberal capitalism is a "failed" political and economic system in dire need of "systemic change" into either social democracy or democratic socialism via the creation of a New Movement.
