Can we start building a post-capitalist society?
Every year, on International Workers’ Day, the world pledges an equitable future for the workers -- a future where income of the workers will be increased, and working conditions will be improved. In such a future, workers are imagined having access to the barrage of consumer goods that the capitalist firms around the world produce and distribute.
As such a vision of “future” is spread and in today’s world, we are always in a rush for securing our future. Every agenda of development is future-oriented. Additionally, every vision of the future is growth-oriented. We all want to grow our income and secure a future with the rising income and resources. This tendency is evident from the individual to the global level. Ironically, this growth mindset is the backbone of capitalism -- the biggest fraud of the contemporary world.
