The Post-Corporate World: Life After Capitalism

A New Vision for a Sustainable and Just Economy

In his groundbreaking book, The Post-Corporate World, David C. Korten argues that the current global economic system is unsustainable and unjust. He offers a new vision for a post-corporate world, one that is based on principles of sustainability, justice, and democracy.

The Problems with the Current Economic System

Korten argues that the current economic system is based on a number of flawed assumptions. First, it assumes that economic growth is the key to human progress. However, Korten shows that economic growth has actually led to a number of serious problems, including environmental degradation, social inequality, and financial instability.

Second, the current economic system is based on the idea that the market is the best way to allocate resources. However, Korten argues that the market is often inefficient and unjust. For example, the market tends to favor large corporations over small businesses, and it often leads to the exploitation of workers and the environment.

Third, the current economic system is based on the idea that the individual is the most important unit of society. However, Korten argues that we are all part of a larger community, and that we need to work together to create a more just and sustainable world.

A New Vision for a Post-Corporate World

Korten offers a new vision for a post-corporate world, one that is based on principles of sustainability, justice, and democracy. He argues that we need to move away from the current system of corporate capitalism and create a new economy that is based on cooperation, compassion, and care for the environment.

Korten's vision for a post-corporate world is a radical one, but it is also a necessary one. The current economic system is unsustainable and unjust, and we need to find a new way to organize our economy if we want to create a more just and sustainable world.
