Too Long; Didn't Read
Eric Posner and Glen Weyl’s new book, Radical Markets, tackles the big questions of how markets and politics and society intersect. The book is split into five major sections, each arguing for a particular reform: self-assessed property taxes, quadratic voting, a new kind of immigration program, breaking up big financial conglomerates that currently make banks and other industries act like monopolies even if they appear at first glance to be competitive. The authors are no strangers to controversy; Posner has on previous occasions even proven willing to argue against human rights law.
