The Economic Revolution is Already Happening

Submitted by Other Worlds on Tue, 10/13/2009 - 12:00

 

Writer Gar Alperovitz believes that a radical transformation of the U.S. economy is taking place all around us, with very little fanfare. He points to the 11,000 worker owned enterprises in this country as proof that the economy can be run, and increasing is already being run, in a more just and democratic way. In a new interview on Alternet, Alperovitz explores the various forms of worker ownership, from worker coops to employee stock option plans, to community development initiatives, and talks about their potential to remake the economy as we know it.
