Good in theory — maybe — but proven disastrous by over a century of experimentation. The Blueprint will present a vision for socialist politics in the twenty-first century, offering not only a critique of contemporary capitalism but a description of a viable economic model that features both expansive social welfare guarantees, worker-managed firms, and the innovation that comes from market competition. Based on the real experiences of social democracy and the cooperative movement, we can envision a better world, and outline concrete steps to get there.Bhaskar Sunkara is the president of The Nation magazine, founder and editorial director of \u003ci\u003eJacobin\u003c\/i\u003e, and the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Socialist Manifesto: The Case for Radical Politics in an Era of Extreme Inequality\u003c\/i\u003e.
