#345 World Sovereign Fund: Taking power from the rich by socializing the shareholder
It is a bold vision for a new economic order: The "Global Justice Report", led by star-economist Thomas Piketty, models a global economy that could reconcile planetary boundaries and prosperity for all by 2100. How is it done? By taxing the ultra rich and transferring their shareholder power towards a World Sovereign Fund, a democratic body redirecting investment toward public and sustainable global goods. Thomas Piketty joins Dissens to talk about the report and how socialists can win the battle for the hearts and minds in times of an ultra-nationalist regression.
