Wolff, a Marxist economist known for making complex economic debates accessible to a general readership. First published in 2012, it argues that capitalism is not simply an imperfect system but one that repeatedly produces inequality, unstable growth, weak democracy, and social costs that are treated as unavoidable. Wolff frames these problems as structural rather than accidental, linking workplace hierarchy to broader political and economic dysfunction. The book is not a technical economics text; instead, it is a manifesto-like argument for economic democracy, especially workplace self-management. Its purpose is to show that if democracy is limited to voting in elections while most people remain excluded from decisions at work, society will continue to reproduce domination and crisis. Wolff therefore presents worker-managed enterprises as both a practical reform and a foundation for a more genuinely democratic society.
