What would it mean to create an economics that guarantees dignity for all?

For decades, we were told that free markets would safeguard democracy. Instead, we are now living in an age of emergencies as the cost of living rises, democratic institutions weaken and the far right gains ground across the world. But it doesn't have to be this way. Drawing on history, political economy and her own experience at the centre of recent inflation debates, economist Isabella Weber argues that the rise of today's authoritarian movements is not an accident. It is rooted in an economic order that has treated livelihoods as expendable while elevating markets above democratic choice.

This book offers a bold alternative. Recovering the forgotten post-war ambition of an economics committed to ‘never again’, Weber argues that governments should secure affordable essentials, guarantee dignified work and build resilient economies capable of confronting climate change, technological disruption and geopolitical conflict. In place of market fundamentalism, she sets out a practical programme for an economy organised around human dignity rather than profit fundamentalism.

Both a clear-eyed diagnosis of our age and an inspiring blueprint for renewal, Anti-Fascist Economics shows that the future of democracy depends on choosing an economy that serves all of us.

Recensioni della critica

Weber’s bold ideas are helping shift the economic paradigm (Elizabeth Warren, TIME100 Next)

Isabella Weber can make a good claim to being one of the more influential economists of the past few years, and certainly one of the most prescient

In progressive circles, Weber is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after economists of her generation … Anti-Fascist Economics is the culmination of years of research into inequality and inflation, and a lifelong commitment to fighting fascism

One of the twenty-first century’s most exciting economic thinkers comes down from the mountain with a program to restore democracy that will resonate on every continent—a wonderful book by a marvelous mind (Zachary Carter)

For all their problems, our troubled times have one merit: they force us to challenge orthodoxy, reconnect with history, and invent new models for the future. In this page-turning book, blending the history of ideas with economic analysis, Isabella Weber maps out her vision for a new economic model centred on the conditions for a dignified life. A must-read (Gabriel Zucman)

Isabella Weber’s excellent new book makes an urgent case that defending democracy is, at its heart, an economic question. Recognizing that markets alone cannot secure a dignified life for all, she cuts through the false dichotomy between taming inflation and protecting livelihoods to offer a bold alternative: an economics of essentials that treats access to housing, food, energy, and care as the material foundation of freedom—and of democracy itself. Anti-Fascist Economics is a well-written and necessary book for anyone who believes the economy must deliver for the benefit of all (Mariana Mazzucato)

This great book from the extraordinary Isabella Weber sets a course for positive economic change and will do so for many years. Indeed the effects are already being felt, from New York City to Germany and many points between. There has been nothing quite so clear, on-point, and powerful for at least a generation (James K. Galbraith)

As a public intellectual, Isabella Weber has already shifted the Overton Window on progressive economic policy, making previously taboo policies thinkable. In this book, she recounts her experiences as a fearless insurgent in a conservative field and outlines a transformative program responsive not to the corporate bottom line but to people’s everyday needs (Quinn Slobodian)
