We are all in search of new paths. Wolfgang Streeck notes that it may not be the end of capitalism, but it certainly is the end of democratic capitalism. Joseph Stiglitz, on a more optimistic note, suggests we should head towards progressive capitalism; Thomas Piketty, participative socialism. Bernie Sanders recovered the legitimacy and potential of the concept of socialism. But this is not a labeling problem. Solutions are not in the past, despite the strong echo produced by Trump’s Make America Great Again or Brexit’s promise of bringing back sovereignty. Rather, we must understand and qualify the mechanisms behind this sudden hastening of history, the structural transformation of the world we know.
