CHAPTER

Imagining Futures Beyond Capitalism

This chapter examines visions for a post-capitalist world, drawing insights from the book 'Imagining After Capitalism' and the author's expertise as a futurist. It discusses societal reactions to the decline of capitalism and introduces three guiding images: the 'circular commons', 'non-workers paradise', and 'tech-led abundance', each offering unique pathways for future societies. The chapter emphasizes the need for significant social and political shifts to navigate these complex transitions towards alternative futures.
