About this listen

This Audiobook is not a blueprint for the future, but a philosophical exploration of the crisis of the present. It argues that capitalism, once animated by the promise of profit and endless growth, is now eroding from within. Profit has lost its legitimacy, work its meaning, and growth its aura of inevitability. Meanwhile, the historical alternatives—socialism, communism, anarchism—have been exhausted or discredited, leaving us in a void where the old is collapsing but the new has not yet emerged.

In this void, fragments of alternatives appear: decentralized organizations, eco-social practices, open knowledge networks, new forms of solidarity, and the cultural revolution brought by artificial intelligence. These are not complete systems, but seedlings—mosaic elements that test what a post-capitalist order might look like. The book treats them not as utopias, but as living laboratories of possibility.

With clarity and critical rigor, this work examines postcapitalism as both necessity and uncertainty: not a ready-made model, but a direction—a compass in the void. It invites scholars, activists, and engaged listeners to rethink economic, cultural, and technological structures, and to participate in the ongoing experiment of shaping futures beyond accumulation and alienation.
