A mini source-book on the roots and prevailing features of the contemporary capitalist political economy, Class Talk - Communications Unbound outlines the alternative of economically viable, politically robust and socio-culturally inclusive democratic socialism fit for the 21st Century and beyond. Tracing politico-economic and socio-cultural exploitative behaviours to historical antecedents of feudalism, slavery and colonialism, it defines the age of capitalism, examines the dismantling of the Post-Second World War politico-economic consensus, outlines shareholder control of the corporate, banking and communications systems and details the global privatization of public services and the worldwide burgeoning of commercial rentierism.
The book makes visible the web of connections between matters of immense public concern: climate catastrophe and capitalist profiteering, foreign policy and terrorism, the housing crises and the global banking cartel, education systems and politico-economic divisiveness. It signposts the discussions, debates, solidarity and organisational activism in which the poor and workingclass majority must engage if societies are to be built and maintained for the common good.
Born in Glasgow, Helen Davitt left school at fifteen; emigrated at seventeen to California where she worked as head cashier in a loan company and was sacked for refusing to sell dud car insurances on car loans. She returned to the UK, worked full time and did a degree at Birkbeck College, University of London for four nights a week over four years. She taught in inner-city schools, worked as a schools' inspector and then as a civilian education officer for the schools abroad for UK servicemen and women.
