26:1 issue contents - Economic Alternatives

The UK economy is in need of fundamental reform. Change is possible and has been achieved before, but will require confronting concentrations of wealth, income and power.

This issue sets out the economic alternatives, their relevance to the UK and the determinants of policy and campaign success.
