Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Many progressive books ae weak in terms of proposing alternatives that are realistic or have actually been tried somewhere. This book is the opposite, it has a great many examples of alternatives and stories about how they have worked. Many books by journalists are not analytical, this one is and the analysis is coherent and intelligent. Our problem in this country is that the union movement has been weakened since the 70s. Unions are the basis of the strength of the 8 social democracies in Europe. This problem challenges progressives in this country and we struggle to find alternatives as well as ways to strengthen unions. This book has some good analysis and ideas about all of this. There is also good material on cooperatives which will be part of the solution. Highly recommended.
