Another Now Summary

Another Now: Dispatches from an Alternative Present by Yanis Varoufakis

Imagine a world with no banks. No stock market. No tech giants. No billionaires.

Imagine if Occupy and Extinction Rebellion actually won.

In Another Now world-famous economist Yanis Varoufakis shows us what such a world would look like. Far from being a fantasy, he describes how it could have come about - and might yet. But would we really want it?

Varoufakis's boundary-breaking new book confounds expectations of what the good society would look like and reveals the uncomfortable truth about our desire for a better world...

'One of my few heroes. As long as people like Varoufakis are around, there still is hope' Slavoj Zizek
