Synopsis "Another Now"

What would a fair and equal society actually look like? The world-renowned economist and bestselling author presents his radical and subversive answer

'A landmark work' Brian Eno

Imagine a world with no banks. No stock market. No tech giants. No billionaires.

Imagine if Occupy and Extinction Rebellion actually won.

In Another Now world-famous economist, Yanis Varoufakis, shows us what such a world would look like. Far from being a fantasy, he describes how it could have come about - and might yet. But would we really want it?

Varoufakis's boundary-breaking new book confounds expectations of what the good society would look like and confronts us with the greatest question: are we able to build a better society, despite our flaws.

'One of my few heroes. As long as people like Varoufakis are around, there still is hope' Slavoj Zizek
