Capitalism 3.0

by Peter Barnes 

This book focuses on the dichotomy of private vs. public ownership.  It defines many modern problems as the result of property ownership rights and provides a historical, legal and theoretical primer on property rights.  It goes on to propose new norms of property ownership that would ameliorate the problems that current norms create.

This book is a phenomenal tool for understanding American capitalism.  It is well-reasoned and even-handed.  The author’s feelings are clear but always based on well-reasoned justification rather than dogmatism, which is important since the proposals that are made in this book are nothing less than revolutionary.

As I am not well qualified to offer an opinion on the proposals presented by the author I will not attempt to do so.  However, this book widened my perspective significantly and has colored many of my interests since I read it.  It is available online as a pdf or can be purchased through Amazon
