Democratize the Economy with Bhaskar Sunkara and Isabella Weber

Jacobin hosts a discussion on how to build a truly democratic economy with Bhaskar Sunkara and Isabella Weber. What would an economy look like if it truly served working people? Jacobin hosts an essential discussion exploring how to build democratic power in our workplaces, redistribute wealth, secure a livable future, and construct an economic system that works for everyone. Jacobin founding editor Bhaskar Sunkara and coauthor of The Blueprint: How Socialism Can Work in the Real World will be in conversation with economist Isabella Weber, author of Anti-Fascist Economics: In Defense of Affordability, Dignity, and Democracy. Together they will outline what a truly democratic economy might look like, considering the relationship between planning and markets in a socialized economy, how we might shift decision-making power from elites back into the hands of working people, how economics can be used to confront corporate power, and why affordability is a foundation of democracy that we must fight for to halt the appeal of the Right across the globe.
