Looking Over the Abyss: The US and Europe Beyond Capitalism

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.
