The Blueprint: How Socialism Can Work in the Real World

$29.95 + s/h

There is an alternative to capitalism achievable in our lifetimes.

Capitalism isn’t working. But is there a plausible successor system? The Blueprint, written by founding editor Bhaskar Sunkara and longtime Jacobin contributors Mike Beggs and Ben Burgis, lays one out: a system where workers control every lever of production, and competitive markets and state planning coexist side by side.

Drawing on the history of socialist experiments and the economic debate over planning and markets, The Blueprint confronts the hardest questions about what went wrong in the past — and why socialism can still work in the future. The result is a plan for socialism that is up to the task of overcoming the challenges facing workers in the twenty-first century.

400-page paperback book. Preorders will ship in late September.
