Peter Barnes Book order

We think our wealth today comes from productive corporations and workers, but they merely add icing to a cake baked long ago. In this provocative book, Peter Barnes argues that most of today's wealth is co-inherited from nature and past human efforts, not individually earned. If some of that co-inherited wealth were placed in trust for each of us, living and yet-to-be born – creating what Barnes calls “universal property” – capitalism would be fundamentally transformed. As Barnes notes, capitalism as we know it has two tragic it relentlessly widens inequality and destroys nature. Both flaws are a result of one-sided property rights that favor capital over everything else. Adding universal property to the current property mix would create a market economy in which businesses prosper, nature’s limits are respected, and a large middle class thrives. This smart and concise book could set the agenda for a post-COVID world.

Etonians aren't exactly noted for their grey matter, but I've always found them perfectly adjusted to society. Jack, a possible paranoid schizophrenic with a Messiah complex, inherits the title of the 14th Earl of Gurney after his father passes away in a bizarre accident. Singularly unsuited to a life in the upper echelons of elite society, Jack finds himself at the centre of a ruthless power struggle as his scheming family strives to uphold their reputation. Bubbling with acerbic wit and feverish energy, Olivier Award-winning and Oscar-nominated-writer Peter Barnes's razor-sharp satire combines a ferocious mix of hilarity and horror whilst mercilessly exposing the foibles of the English nobility. This edition of the play is published to coincide with the first-ever revival of this classic cult comedy at the Trafalgar Studios, London, on 16 January 2015.

Addressing economic inequality, the author presents a visionary plan to empower the middle class through monthly dividends for all Americans. This proposal draws on historical concepts and successful models, suggesting that non-labor income is essential in an era shaped by automation and globalization. By leveraging shared wealth from natural resources and cultural heritage, the plan aims to create a sustainable economy while incentivizing environmental stewardship. It seeks to transcend political divides, offering a market-based solution to a pressing issue.

The book presents a compelling argument about the future of America's middle class in the face of globalization and automation, suggesting that traditional high-paying jobs will diminish. To address this challenge, the author proposes a system where every American receives a share of collective wealth, particularly from air and financial infrastructure. This approach aims to provide a supplementary source of nonlabor income through dividends, positioning it as a legitimate form of property income rather than welfare or wealth redistribution.
