Capitalism Made in Germany

Germany’s unique form of capitalism is not well understood by many. This interactive seminar reveals how a distinctive national culture, history and stabilizing institutions deeply imprinted German capitalism. Co-determination in labor relations, dual apprenticeship vocational training, public banking, a social welfare safety net and German “Mittelstand;”altogether make Germany a world leader in exports, second only to China. Join us to discuss the secrets behind the “German model” and draw some important lessons that others could learn from.

    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.
