The Sunday Times Bestseller We live in a time of unprecedented
upheaval, with questions about the future, society, work,
happiness, family and money, and yet no political party of the
right or left is providing us with answers. Rutger Bregman, a
bestselling Dutch historian, explains that it needn't be this way.
Bregman shows that we can construct a society with visionary ideas
that are, in fact, wholly implementable. Every milestone of
civilization - from the end of slavery to the beginning of
democracy - was once considered a utopian fantasy. New utopian
ideas such as universal basic income and a 15-hour work week can
become reality in our lifetime. This guide to a revolutionary yet
achievable utopia is supported by multiple studies, lively
anecdotes and numerous success stories. From a Canadian city that
once completely eradicated poverty, to Richard Nixon's near
implementation of a basic income for millions of Americans, Bregman
takes us on a journey through history, beyond the traditional
left-right divides, as he introduces ideas whose time has come.
