About This Item
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2001. First Edition. very good, very good. 527, footnotes, notes, selected bibliography, index, sticker residue on front endpaper. For nearly half a century, Seymour Melman has been an influential commentator on capitalism and militarism. In this book he explores a growing trend in capitalist systems worldwide: workplace democracy. The end of the Cold War in 1991 inspired an unprecedented outburst of triumphalist rhetoric among proponents of unfettered capitalism. Melman, in dissent, tracks the increasing social and economic inequities and the resulting cries for workplace reform. He points out the ominous parallels between the Soviet Union's planned economy and the relentless onward march of American capitalism.
