How, exactly, is enterprise “free”? How are markets “free”? Without any regulations they reduce people’s freedoms not enhance them. In my new book I show why and provide another way to think about building a fairer, freer, and more just society. The Road to Freedom, out now.

Our society has decided to accept enormous inequality but it doesn't have to. If we finally reject neoliberal doctrines and structure society in a way that takes all people and their right to live a full life into account—freer to live up to their potential—we would be better

Neoliberalism erodes the very freedoms it claims to champion

This paradox shows why '[a]ny discussion of freedom must begin with a discussion of whose freedom we’re talking about.' -Our Chief Economist Joseph E. Stiglitz in a piece adapted from his new book theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Financial markets left to their own devices do not make economies and those who live in them free, despite what Milton Friedman said. Lots of data over 40 years shows we’re actually worse off. We need a new way to think about markets, economic policy and what we want our society

Forty-odd years after neoliberalism took hold it’s clear it doesn’t work. In fact, it never had either a robust theory or the data to back up its claims. Time to introduce a new, more freeing capitalism that allows all people to live up to their potential. That’s what I do in my
