Beschreibung
In Would Democratic Socialism Be Better?, Lane Kenworthy examines how capitalist economies have performed on 15 outcomes that contemporary democratic socialists say we should care about: an end to poverty in rich countries, an end to poverty everywhere, more jobs, decent jobs, faster economic growth, inclusive growth, more public goods and services, affordable healthcare for all, helpful finance, truly democratic politics, economic democracy, less economic inequality, gender and racial equality, more community, and a livable planet. As he shows, the evidence suggests that capitalism, and particularly social democratic capitalism, or what is often called the Nordic model, is better than many democratic socialists seem to think.
