This is Robert Corfe's third book on the socio-economic philosophy of New Socialism. Whilst in the earlier books he laid down the theoretical foundations for New Socialist economic thinking and formulated a terminology in advancing ideas for a better world, in this book he concentrates on practical proposals for ensuring an efficient financial-industrial infrastructure which correlates also with a fair society. In the earlier chapters, Corfe writes at some length about the special needs of business and industry in the Third World, before considering those necessary changes in the more advanced economies. Robert Corfe is a political scientist, with a long career in business and politics, and is currently involved in establishing the Socialist Business Values Association.
Part 1 Redefining the benefits of free trade: why the business community should be committed to New Socialism; the political threat of global capitalism; how the nation state defines the democratic community; creating free trade for the majority; internal capitalization in the Third World; competition and protection; how environmental issues will change industrial policy. Part 2 Strategies for national prosperity: productivity defined; the bane of rentier capitalism; the meaning of wealth creation; the pursuit of business for its own sake; identifying the right objectives; ownership as a stewardship; industrial democracy and worker investment; government policies for industry; a new investment source for productivity; creative intervention and the business advisor; monopoly versus efficiency. Part 3 Job creation for social wealth: social and unsocial wealth creation; how industry and jobs are undermined; how rentier business practices destroy productivity; political alignments fail to reflect economic realities; scale of the damaging rentier economy; the monster that turned on productivity; where blame must lie; rentier versus productive capitalism; occupational priorities according to productivity; money-power in Britain greater than elsewhere; our competitors put productivity first; invisible barriers against British trade; proposals for promoting job-creating productivity; a message for the world. Part 4 Reforming the business enterprise: the company - identifying its intrinsic purpose; "usury" - is it relevant today?; the company- fairness and efficiency as one; a general purposes clause for the company. Part 5 Forty-three failing Britain - an exercise in the critique of rentier capitalism: industrialists against industry; the ideology of industrial decline; counterblast to the forty-three; the purpose of industry; the bifurcation of capitalism; identifying productive profitability. Part 6 Declaration of socialist business values: first part - the principles of socially responsible capitalism; second part - achieving the practicality of change.
