What to expect
Imagine a world with no banks. No stock market. No tech giants. No billionaires.
Imagine if Occupy and Extinction Rebellion actually won.
In Another Now, world-famous economist Yanis Varoufakis shows us what such a world would look like. Far from being a fantasy, he describes how it could have come about—and might yet. But would we really want it?
Varoufakis’s boundary-breaking new book confounds expectations of what the good society would look like and reveals the uncomfortable truth about our desire for a better world.
Critics Review

The Wire

“Offering a glimpse of how things might be different, Another Now invites us to contemplate possibilities that are not without their challenges, but worth entertaining nonetheless.”
PopMatters

“I am enjoying Yanis Varoufakis’s Another Now. The way we live is not inevitable.”
Jeanette Winterson, author of The Passion
-
“[This] book is both visionary in its search for new possibilities and realistic in its embrace of the burdens, contradictions, and complexities of our human nature.”
Alfonso Cuarón, Academy Award–winning director
