In The Corruption of Capitalism, Guy Standing demonstrates why, in the interests of democracy and our common wealth, the rise of rentier capitalism must be resisted. Standing reveals the devastating effects of the construction of a global market economy.

A system in which property — financial, physical, and intellectual — is controlled by a tiny but enormously powerful rentier class.
