Rutger Bregman
Utopia for Realists : and how we can get there / Rutger Bregman - London : Bloomsbury Publishing, 2017. - 316 p. ; 20 cm.
Utopia for Realists challenges conventional thinking about poverty, inequality, and work by arguing that ideas often dismissed as utopian such as universal basic income (UBI), a shorter working week, and open borders are practical and historically grounded solutions. Drawing on economic research, historical case studies, and social policy experiments, Rutger Bregman contends that many social problems can be addressed through bold reforms that promote human well-being, reduce inequality, and expand economic opportunity. The book encourages readers to rethink what is politically and economically possible.
