When Markets Cease to Control Human Economic Life

Kim Petersen: Our most important contribution is to have demonstrated concretely how to reconcile democratic planning with worker and consumer autonomy.

Capital Punishment Places Too Much Trust In An Untrustworthy Institution

Thomas Knapp: On Valentine’s Day in 2018, Nikolas Cruz murdered 14 students and three school employees at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
