<b>A major new manifesto for a high-tech future free from work</b><br><br>Despite the profound crisis of capitalism and the mass mobilizations of people around the world in response, there has been no successful contestation of neoliberalism’s hegemony.<i>Inventing the Future</i> is a major new manifesto that argues for a novel set of alternatives for the future—alternatives which seek to rekindle a popular modernity. Against the confused understanding of the high-tech and neoliberal world by both the right and the left, this book claims that the emancipatory and future-oriented possibilities of our society can be reclaimed. Instead of running from a complex future, the authors envisage a post-capitalist economy is capable of advancing living standards, liberating humanity from work and developing technologies which free us from biological and environmental constraints.
