Series en casa•Feed

What would an alternative to capitalism actually look like? A Participatory Economy (also known as Parecon) is a model for a new democratic, fair and green economic system based on democratic planning of the productive commons by self-managing workplaces and neighbourhoods. It describes how a modern economy of millions of people can be organised around solidarity and cooperation instead of competition and greed. In this podcast, co-creator and economist, Robin Hahnel, is joined by fellow advocates Mitchell Szczepanczyk and Antti Jauhiainen to discuss questions and topics relating to a Participatory Economy, post-capitalism and how we can get there.

A Socialist Economy without Numbers? 36:44

Can a post-Capitalist socialist Economy exist without numbers? There are those who think it can. In this episode Mitchell, Robin and Antti are joined by accountant Anders Sandström (Author of Anarchist accounting) to discuss the topic of numbers in a socialist economy. Do we need numbers to measure the true social costs and opportunity costs of goods and services? Can everything be quantified, are there some things that simply can’t? Or are we doomed as Mark Twain once said to know ‘The Price of everything and the value of nothing’?

Written by Sean Michael Wilson, and drawn by Carl Thompson, Parecomic is about Michael Albert—the visionary behind “participatory economics”—and his life’s struggle as a left-wing activist in the US.” Order the book: https://participatoryeconomy.org/book/parecomic/ Sean Michael Wilson Website: https://seanmichaelwilson.weebly.com/parecomic.html Sean Michael Wilson Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@boychildnew1/videos Support the show Website: https://www.ParticipatoryEconomy.org YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ParticipatoryEconomy Twitter: https://twitter.com/pareconomy Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParticipatoryEconomy Support Us: https://www.paypal.com/donate/……
