Consequences of Capitalism

While this contains a strong critique of capitalism's powerful media, state, and military control in disregarding and exploiting labor and the environment, with a more than capable blend of 19-20c history and more recent conflicts and protest - as a book it is hard to recommend as these are straight lecture transcripts from two older men with all the rambling and "but I'll get to that in a moment" that format engenders. Read some Chomsky, but probably not this one.

The book has a large variety of topics concerning the Consequences Of Capitalism. This includes hegemonic common sense, militarism, the environment, neoliberalism (& globalization, financialization) and possible social change. All of which is given with relevant historical evidence, examples and context. The book also takes multiple ideas and concepts from other authors and implements them pretty well. This would include Karl Marx, Shoshana Zuboff and Mark Fisher (just to name a few). Aside from reading how much Capitalism effects our lives and in what way, I'm absolutely blown away by how much history this book has taught me and the amount of detail it went into!

So, if you're interested in learning the Consequences of Capitalism and a ton of history, then I would highly recommend it.
