Debates over the role of government rage in the wake of America 's
deepest financial crisis since the Depression. This book suggests
new ways of appreciating the political, legal, and moral context
that could bring about a more sound economic future.
"Postcapitalism" analyzes the contemporary American predicament
plaguing the economy: whether to leave the markets to their own
devices or to allow government intervention. Instead of arguing for
a capitalist or social democratic ideology, this book suggests that
American pragmatism is indeed the choice we have made in the past
century and that informs our current policies. This means that from
the workplace to foreign aid, Americans are bound to cooperate with
each other and collaborate rather than pursue their self-interest
in competitive ways. Drawing on thinkers from Adam Smith to Keynes
and Bernanke, Sassower shows how a new era of postideological
capitalism can emerge in the wake of the current economic crisis.
