About the Book
"Building the New Economy" introduces a successor to Capitalism. A system with an explicit mandate of distributed wealth and ownership that the author terms "Distributive Capitalism". Harlley takes a multi-dimensional view of the potential comparative advantages of a distributed system, covering areas as diverse as political grid-lock, macro-economic risk and economic justice, while always anchoring his arguments for "Distributive Capitalism" to the goal of human happiness and flourishing.
