Capitalism – The Anglo- American Liberal Democratic Model

Capitalism, the dominant economic system in today’s world is also widely credited for the wealth and progress of nations. However, the great success stories often come with a growing polarization of society between haves and have nots. In this interactive seminar, Michael Bucher looks at the Anglo-American experiment, and asks what went wrong and why true capitalism is the only sensible path to reforming capitalism.

Location: Henry George School of Social Science, 149 East 38th Street (Between Lexington & 3rd Avenue) New York, NY 10016

    Masters of Money: Now, More than Ever. And Just in Time – Frederick Soddy’s Winning Trifecta


    In this first session of our Masters of Money series, Joe Bongiovanni will engage in a conversation on Nobel laureate Dr. Frederick Soddy’s unique work on the national economy’s broken “wealth-distributing” mechanism via our existing money system, and on society’s need for achieving ecological balance . The talk will highlight Soddy’s relevance by discussing his pioneering contribution on ‘internalizing’ the cost of environmental degradation that is regularly ‘externalized’ in today’s model of Finance Capitalism.

    Joe Bongiovanni is, perhaps uniquely, a second-generation monetary reformer and the former Director of Vermont’s Kettle Pond Institute for Debt-Free Money. Joe is a Founding Member of the U.S.-based Alliance For Just Money (Inc.) and for over a decade Joe has been a regular speaker at the American Monetary Institute’s (AMI) Annual Monetary Reform Conference.
