Title: How will capitalism end?: Essays on a Failing System Author: Wolfgang Streeck Narrator: David Skulski Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 37 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Economics Publisher's Summary: AftAfter years of ill health, capitalism is now in a critical condition. Growth has given way to stagnation; inequality is leading to instability; and confidence in the money economy has all but evaporated. In How Will Capitalism End?, the acclaimed analyst of contemporary politics and economics Wolfgang Streeck argues that the world is about to change. The marriage between democracy and capitalism, ill-suited partners brought together in the shadow of World War Two, is coming to an end. The regulatory institutions that once restrained the financial sector's excesses have collapsed and, after the final victory of capitalism at the end of the Cold War, there is no political agency capable of rolling back the liberalization of the markets. Ours has become a world defined by declining growth, oligarchic rule, a shrinking public sphere, institutional corruption and international anarchy, and no cure to these ills is at hand. er years of ill health, capitalism is now in a critical condition.
