An Inheritance for Our Times : Principles and Politics of Democratic Socialism

An Inheritance for Our Times : Principles and Politics of Democratic Socialism

Gregory Smulewicz-Zucker
4/5 ( ratings)
Democratic socialism is on the lips of activists and politicians from both left and right. Some call it extremism, some call it common sense.

What are we talking about?

At a time when the capitalist experiment has made fewer people richer than ever before and seems to be well on the way to killing the planet, a new generation is reassessing old-fashioned principles of community. Millions are looking to democratic socialist values—much as they are now championed by the Squad’s Green New Deal and once were espoused by FDR’s New Deal—to address economic inequalities and environmental devastation.

An Inheritance for Our Times is a reader that includes original essays in the form of both personal accounts and intellectual arguments from activists and theorists advocating a democratic socialist outlook. Featured writers include Mimi Abramovitz, Kevin B. Anderson, Sheri Berman, Fred Block, Stephen Eric Bronner, Paresh Chattopadhyay, Sheila D. Collins, Zillah Eisenstein, Barbara A. Epstein, Steve Fraser, Fernando E. Gapasin, Philip Green, Gregor Gysi, Rohini Hensma, K. Kim Holder, Nancy Holmstrom, Peter Hudis, Joy James, Geoffrey Kurtz, Elena Mancini, Stephanie Mudge, Bernie Sanders, Saskia Sassen, David Schweickart, Wilson Sherwin, Tony Smith, Gregory R. Smulewicz-Zucker, Lester Spence, Michael J. Thompson, Ian Williams, and Richard D. Wolff.
