Summary: A very strong critique/interesting recommendations.
Comment: This is a manifesto for a new sustainable economy. Like most of the Open Media Pamphlets, this work is cheap, short and to the point; as well as being very insightful and pertinent. Her critique of the global economy and social structure here at home are right on track. She gives a framework for some proposals for how to change our system. I do not find all of her every one of her proposals to be desirable, but do appreciate the spirit and breadth of her arguments. This is a much needed contribution to the burgeoning dialogue in progressive literature. The entire Open Media Pamphlet series is indispensible. You won't find a non-well argued book among them.

Summary: Primer on Key Issues for Next and Future Elections
Comment:
I am just blown away by the quality and utility of the Open Media Pamphlet Series, which brings very high-value thinking to the people in a very low-cost and easy to understand format.
Juliet Schor, author of two books on related topics, and a lecturer at Harvard since 1984, does a lovely job, in 64 pages, of hitting on the key issues that voters must address as they move forward in taking back the power from political parties now held hostage by corporations.
Her reasoned and logical discussion of basic premises (sustainability, democractic control, egalitarianism), of key issues in the relations between workers and their corporate employers, of how to achieve environmental as well as social balance, and of the larger global issues including needed changes in federal law, provide the single best primer I have ever seen for anyone--at any level of understanding--who wishes to invest time in understanding what needs to be done to protect future generations who have no one to represent them other than the people.
