The Cancer Stage of Capitalism : And Its Cure

See all formats and editions

This volume traces the cause of global disorder back to the assumptions of market theory that govern the world's economy.

It sets out to explain how the corporate market paradigm suppresses the very market freedoms which are used to justify it and how it denies any recognition of its destructive consequences.

The crisis in the global market is located in an underlying conflict between the "life sequence of value" and the now decoupled "money sequence" which has, the book argues, bankrupted, invaded and expropriated domestic economies worldwide.Drawing a broad parallel with the behaviour of biological cancers, this study explains the delinked circuits of monetised growth in terms of carcinogenic disorder of society.

The author argues that the way out of this global crisis is found in the substructure of history.
