About the book
"Europe and subsequently the United States rose to power and wealth along with the rise of capitalism. But capitalism has now shifted its attention to Asia, even as the conditions of ordinary workers in Europe and North America decline, and the political influence of the West wanes. This book argues that only by breaking decisively with capitalism, and aligning themselves with the majority of the world's people against exploitation, can the peoples of Europe and the United States save their societies. They must look not into the abyss where capitalism now proposes to plunge them, but over the abyss, over the horizon of capitalism, to an alternative present and future beyond capitalism. This work proposes concrete steps that can be taken to change institutions to move beyond capitalism, and helps to clarify the meanings of key concepts such as the State, Nations, Internationalism, Capitalism, Corporation and Class in ways that are practical and useful for social change"--
