Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly examines the current state of capitalism, key obstacles to change, and how to overcome those barriers. Our first article reviews a Harvard social enterprise conference—and analyzes the gap between calls for transformation and the means proposed to achieve it. Our next article looks at the effects of financialization in higher education—and how academic workers are organizing to create universities that prioritize the common good over the pursuit of profit and prestige. These stories are followed by two video clips that highlight emerging tools to create community-controlled capital that can sustain people-centered, democratic economic development.
