Talk by Walther Zeug: Democratic Economic Planning – For a good Life for Everyone within Planetary Boundaries

This talk is hosted by the group ‘Plurale Ökonomik Chemnitz‘ (heterodox economics Chemnitz). The talk will be held in German.

Here is the translated description of the event:

“What can we learn from the historical failure of really existing socialism and the current escalating crisis dynamics of capitalism for the possibilities of a post-capitalist economy?

We invite you to a presentation by Walther Zeug, in which he will introduce the economic model he developed together with Jakob Heyer: Cybernetic Democratic Economic Planning (CDEP) – a cybernetic, democratic form of economic planning that aims to enable a good life for all within planetary boundaries. CDEP is a tool that we could use to decide democratically, fairly, efficiently, and effectively which and how many resources we can and want to use, with which technologies and production systems, to satisfy which social needs.”
