More about the book
The book critiques the rise of unrestrained vampire-capitalism, highlighting its disconnection from the needs of citizens and workers, which exacerbates social divisions across class, gender, and ethnicity. It examines the detrimental effects of a cultural focus on self-realization that hampers collective action against pressing issues like climate change and technological disruption in labor. Through sociological and political economic analysis, it investigates the origins of these challenges and proposes pathways toward alternative social economies for a more equitable future.
