Published in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, it challenges the idea that prices reliably measure value and argues that many essential social and ecological goods are systematically ignored by conventional markets. Patel uses economics, political theory, and activist experience to question market fundamentalism, privatization, and corporate power. He is especially concerned with the commons, meaning shared resources and shared social capacities that markets often treat as invisible or disposable. The book is not a technical economics text, but a critical and accessible intervention aimed at readers who want to understand why market society produces repeated crises and how democratic decision-making might better protect public and ecological life.
