PostCapitalism: A Guide to our Future

PostCapitalism: A Guide to our Future is a 2015 book by British journalist and writer Paul Mason. Mason discusses the existential threat posed to capitalism by the digital revolution. Mason argues that the digital revolution has the potential to reshape utterly our familiar notions of work, production and value; and to destroy an economy based on markets and private ownership—in fact, he contends, it is already doing so. He points to parallel currencies, co-operatives, self-managed online spaces, even Wikipedia. Mason argues that from the ashes of the global financial crisis, we have the chance to create a more socially just and sustainable global economy. Some say that he presents a future of utopian socialism. But some others argue that PostCapitalism means nothing else but communism
