The economic turmoil of 2008-2009-?? did not come out of nowhere. The hourly wage for most workers is no better in real terms than it was in 1973. The gap between the rich and the rest of us has widened to a historic extreme. Dividing history into stages is a way of gaining insight on the next social order that humanity is poised to enter. By taking a broad overview of primitive society, the ancient world, the medieval era, dynastic China, and capitalism, we find the limits of capitalism and the basic features of the society that will replace it. Andrews is author of From Capitalism to Equality: An Inquiry into the Laws of Economic Change and has been an activist since the movement against the U.S. war in Vietnam.
