This book is a lightweight reading for those who are interested in the overall question on how to change capitalism to make it a liveable, more just and equal space for all on this globe. Specifically, the core of the reasoning is based on the "free money to everyone", the basic income, and the fifteen-hour workweek topics – the topics for Bregman got to be known by the wider public since years – and the topics which represent the most grounded parts of the book. It is a journey through course material in economics, social and development studies with a storytelling narration. The examples based on the classics are presented vividly, taking space from in-depth analysis, or thoroughly constructed insights. This reading is an introduction with an overview, that can be easily read commuting on a train, or on a weekend. |
