Supercapitalism

In Supercapitalism, Robert B. Reich examines the remarkable growth of the U.S. economy since the 1970s, highlighting increased consumer choices, declining prices, and rising efficiency in companies alongside a booming stock market. However, he contends that this economic success has come at a cost, as the responsiveness of American democracy has waned, leaving citizens feeling increasingly powerless. Reich explores the intricate relationship between capitalism and politics, revealing how supercapitalism enriches lives while simultaneously undermining democratic engagement.
