Inequality Interviews: Pelle Dragsted on Nordisk Socialisme
In this episode, Chris Bay interviews politician and author Pelle Dragsted about his new book, Nordisk Socialisme (Nordic Socialism), and the ideas and questions it poses: on what we can learn from the economic alternatives that already exist in our societies, on the political dangers of the increasing concentration of wealth, on the need for new economic models to face the challenges of the climate crisis, and on how we might (re-)introduce democracy into economy.The 10 Reform Proposals in English:
Expand the public sector.
A modern fund socialism.
Deprivatisation - new, democratic public ownership.
A democratic, two chamber system in corporations.
Democratisation of the financial sector and investment.
Land and housing at use value, not market value.
Data socialism.
De-commodification and new public goods.
Democratic doughnut planning.
Full employment and a public job guarantee.
