We live in a world of poverty, war and environmental devastation. A world where living standards for working people plummet while an elite few enjoy lives of unbelievable wealth and power. Something different--an alternative to capitalism--is desperately needed. But what should replace it?
Coinciding with the publication of The Case for Socialism by SocialistWorker.org editor Alan Maass, the International Socialist Organization is sponsoring meetings across the country to put forward the socialist alternative--a society built from the bottom up through the struggles of ordinary people against exploitation, oppression and injustice.
