Features: This academic work demonstrates the poverty brought to more people and the destruction to the natural environment caused by unmanaged market globalization driven by asset accumulation. Only by recognizing the restrictive nature of property rights, democratizing ownership of products, and aligning economic development with human needs and the protection of the Earth can this phenomenon be stopped. — Gregory Barlett (Professor at McGill University and Queen's University)
This is a fascinating and meaningful book that makes a significant contribution to the discussion of the negative impacts of the controversial unbridled global market behavior, while also offering valuable insights on how to change this situation. I hope more people can read it and learn from it. — Martin Koel (Director of the Third World Network)
As this book analyzes, trustworthy communities are crucial for global fairness, and they are taking action. By combining our analysis of various factors, moving forward together under the unity, realism, and integrity required for global fairness is the responsibility of all of us. This book represents a major step forward on this path. — Susan George (Writer, former soldier)
I highly recommend this book. When historical developments prompt different thinking about the current organization of the economy and society, capitalism often justifies itself with "natural" or "divinely ordained" reasons. The valuable contribution of this book is that it presents an alternative possible world. — Dennis Hallert (Canadian Christian Justice Initiative)
The author offers a unique perspective in providing a comprehensive analysis of today's capital globalization issues. Focusing on property rights—the central issue in the economic system—the author critically exposes the current state of capital globalization. The author argues that private property rights are the root of major conflicts in the world today, including wars and poverty. This book highlights the negative impacts of neoliberal economics on global humanity while refuting the claim that there is no alternative model to global capitalism. In Chapter 7, "An Alternative Possible World—Rebuilding Ownership Systems from the Perspective of Life and Public Interest, Bottom-Up," the world described is an alternative to the capitalist model.
