Aye Write! Paul Mason and Nick Srnicek – Postcapitalism 19 March, 2016.
19th Mar 2016 • 6:00PM – 7:00PM
Mitchell Library, North St, Glasgow G3 7DN
Session on Postcapitalism with two highly respected speakers chaired by Lesley Riddoch.
Paul Mason is one of Britain’s most recognisable voices on the economy, culture and politics. He is the award-winning Economics Editor of Channel 4 News. In his ground-breaking book, Postcapitalism, Mason shows how, from the ashes of the recent financial crisis, we have the chance to create a more socially just and sustainable global economy. Moving beyond capitalism, he shows, is no longer a utopian dream. Nick Srnicek’s book, Inventing the Future (written with Alex Williams) envisages a post-capitalist economy which is capable of advancing living standards, liberating humanity from work, and developing technologies which free us from biological and environmental constraints. Chaired by Lesley Riddoch.
