I am happy to announce the publication of my new book, Distributism Basics: Foundational Principles. This is an exploration of some of the core principles underlying the distributist idea.
My previous Distributism Basics series of articles[1] was a very generalized introduction to the historical background of the modern distributist movement, with some explanations of how distributism differs from both capitalism and socialism. This book is a more detailed introduction to distributism for those who would like a better understanding of it.
The topics covered include:
- The relationship of politics and economics
- Different kinds of Capitalism
- Different kinds of Socialism
- What the name, Distributism, really means.
- Private Property
- Subsidiarity
- Regulation of Businesses
- Preference for Local Economics
- Rights and Responsibilities
- The Social Responsibility for Charity
- The Social Responsibility to Work
- The Social Responsibilities of Business
- Ethical Employment
- Ethical Competition
- Ethical Finance
- Implementation
- Distributism in the Age of the Internet
- Innovation
- Nationalism and Global Trade
This book is available in paperback and e-book formats from The Book Patch (thebp.site/167644). The paperback is $13.00 plus shipping and handling. I am recording an audio book version and will announce when it becomes available. Thank you for your continued support!
