In the face of economic crisis, global capitalism is fast being recognised as a bankrupt system. But is there an alternative Can there be a system which really meets the needs of people on a global scale In The Case for Socialism, Alan Maass argues that Socialism, a democratically planned economy based on workers' control, is rational, necessary and possible.
