Gar Alperovitz is one of the leading thinkers today in the area of progressive political economy. I highly recommend this video a well as all of the documents of “The Next System Project.
If you haven’t heard Democracy Collaborative co-founder Gus Alperovitz’s keynote address at the 2018 Bioneers Conference near San Francisco, you will find it even more timely today amid debates over such issues as what should be in a “Green New Deal” and how far should a new vanguard of elected officials push the envelope for systemic change. The address lays out the thinking that is driving much of The Next System Project’s work.
