Why Hunger: Arguments Against the Market

More about the book

The book critically examines the paradox of modern technology alongside persistent global issues like hunger, poverty, and poor working conditions, highlighting the disparity between national wealth and the reality faced by most people. It argues for a reevaluation of the global market economy and suggests that alternatives must be considered. The resurgence of interest in Karl Marx's "Capital" is emphasized as a pivotal text that offers insights into these economic disparities, asserting that Marx's analysis remains relevant in today's context.
