Good in theory -- maybe -- but proven disastrous by over a century of experimentation. The Blueprint will present a vision for socialist politics in the twenty-first century, offering not only a critique of contemporary capitalism but a description of a viable economic model that features both expansive social welfare guarantees, worker-managed firms, and the innovation that comes from market competition. Based on the real experiences of social democracy and the cooperative movement, we can envision a better world, and outline concrete steps to get there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bhaskar Sunkara,Ben Burgis,Mike Beggs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839768630\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839768637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs","brand":"Bhaskar Sunkara","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48174825537791,"sku":"9781839768637","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc796969-05ad-40c6-ad0a-1c9ce0456f8c.jpg?v=1771330777","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-blueprint-bhaskar-sunkara-9781839768637","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
