In Does Capitalism Have a Future?, a global quintet of distinguished scholars cut their way through to the question of whether our capitalist system can survive in the medium run. Despite the current gloom, conventional wisdom still assumes that there is no real alternative to capitalism. The authors argue that this generalization is a mistaken outgrowth of the optimistic nineteenth-century claim that human history ascends through stages to an enlightened equilibrium of liberal capitalism. All major historical systems have broken down in the end, and in the modern epoch several cataclysmic events-notably the French revolution, World War I, and the collapse of the Soviet bloc-came to pass when contemporary political elites failed to calculate the consequences of the processes they presumed to govern. At present, none of our governing elites and very few intellectuals can fathom a systemic collapse in the coming decades. While the book’s contributors arrive at different conclusions, they are in constant dialogue with one another, and they construct a relatively seamless-if open-ended-whole.
Written by five of world’s most respected scholars of global historical trends, this ambitious book asks the most important of questions: Are we on the cusp of a radical world historical shift?

And the alternatives?
Communism
Socialism
Rainbows
One produces, innovates, builds.
The others destroy, subjugate and enslave.
Easy choice

“All major historical systems have broken down in the end”? A bit quick to suggest that the oldest democracy in the world is on the brink of collapse, isn’t it? And, what of the socialist regimes? Which one do we have to choose from that has outlived Western capitalism?

Rome’s republic collapsed, and the US is built after Rome. Capitalism will lead to a Crassus crowning himself king.

But then Crassus falls, too (or Crassus crashes)

To Jiminy, the oldest democracy in the world is as young as the green shoots of spring in historical terms. It’s not if it will collapse but when.

So is this book worth reading or not?

Love to see all the airheads in the comments. Their chorus of stupidity is always venting the same fallacy: capitalism is good because socialism is bad. Don’t bother asking them what these words mean, though, they haven’t the slightest clue.
