PEP Talk: The Participatory Economy Podcast
What would an alternative to capitalism actually look like? A Participatory Economy (also known as Parecon) is a model for a new democratic, fair and green economic system based on democratic planning of the productive commons by self-managing workplaces and neighbourhoods. It describes how a modern economy of millions of people can be organised around solidarity and cooperation instead of competition and greed. In this podcast, co-creator and economist, Robin Hahnel, is joined by fellow advocates Mitchell Szczepanczyk and Antti Jauhiainen to discuss questions and topics relating to a Participatory Economy, post-capitalism and how we can get there.

It’s an age-old question: reform or revolution? Or, to put it another way, can welfare states be a laboratory for social change? in this episode of PEP talk we discuss the Meidner plan in Sweden in the 1970s, the Finnish welfare state and any lessons we can draw for establishing a full scale Participatory Economy.
