How to Make a Democratic Economy

(Recorded before Covid-19). The strength of the U.S. economy is often at the center of debate during an election season. But whether the economy is good or bad, there is no denying that America’s economy is neither democratic nor good for the planet. Is this inevitable, or is it possible to build a greener and more just economy? In this week’s episode of The Laura Flanders Show, Marjorie Kelly and Ted Howard of the Democracy Collaborative talk about their new book The Making of a Democratic Economy and explain what steps we need to take in order to create an economy that works for everyone.

Guests:
Marjorie Kelly, Executive Vice President and Senior Fellow, The Democracy Collaborative
Ted Howard, Co-Founder and Executive Director, The Democracy Collaborative
