"If we all agree that our current social-political moment is tenuous and unsustainable (and indeed, that may be the only thing we can agree on right now), then how do markets, governments, and people interact in this next era of capitalist societies?

The result, they hope, is something greater than what is typically achieved by an academic volume"--
