All the Same - All Being New: Basic Rules of Capitalism in a World of Change Peter Herrmann

The book gathers different contributions - they can all be linked to recent orientations by the main contributor, Paul Boccara who states the need for a new modèle anthroponomique. According to the work of the well-known French academic and political activist the current challenges need more than a simple change of the economic system - even if such reorientation is surely also needed and has to be in itself far-reaching. However, going beyond economic changes the challenge of the time has to face the need to redefine the position and role of humanity in the wider relationship to others and to nature. The contributions gathered in the present volume are discussing both, generic questions of such revolutionary processes and the need of changes in concrete areas as labour market policies, political strategies, financial control and the like.
