In a world gripped by endless crises and climate breakdown, the demand to reshape our economic system has never been more urgent. Reclaiming the Future by Simon Hannah is a beginner's guide to planning the economy, taking readers on a transformative journey towards a radically democratic society where the power and control over our lives are firmly in our hands. Decades of right-wing scaremongering have tried to consign economic planning to the dustbin. Still, its need is more significant than ever - it might be the only thing to save us from climate catastrophe. In this myth-busting and accessible guide, Hannah lays the building blocks for a grassroots economy that aligns our economy with human needs and environmental limits.
