I independently formed a similar conclusion just from the perspective I've developed from consuming a load of information. For me, the novelty of this book was to show how predictions from economic contributors were in agreement if you look at the future described by the author in the perspective of modern technology.One takeaway for me was I found a way to disagree with author Chris Hedges, a man who agrees with Marxist criticism of capital but disagrees with the communist outcome as predicted by Karl Marx. I think Mr. Bastani did a great job of codifying and narrating the capitalist progression, calling it capitalist realism, and worded it all in a way that is hard to reject.If you're not an avid reader of news, this book will arm you with the insight to make some predictions, and if you are an avid reader of news like I am but are short on relevant selections of the history of economic thought, this book will fill in the gaps and give you the benefit of seeing how Keynes and Marx, for instance, agreed with one another, a comparison I've never seen myself from any other author.In short, speaking with an educational background of an advanced degree in computer science, I find it easy to go from the premises he presents (which are true) to the conclusion he presents, so I believe he builds a strong argument for the future of society. I thank Mr. Bastani for reminding me that communism, as presented by Karl Marx, didn't necessarily rely on human labor to produce the shared material wealth. Instead, Karl Marx's prediction relied on the assumption that the means of production will become very efficient, and Mr. Basatani identified the nascent technology for this as artificial intelligence.I recommend you purchase this book and I hope you enjoy reading it just as I did. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We can’t go into the future with “socialism for the rich, market capitalism for the poor” *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2019* “Capitalist realism is the belief that the apocalypse is more likely to occur than the end of capitalism.” The point of this book isn’t to convince you that “Fully Automated Luxury Communism” is the future, or is our only chance to survive the enourmous economic and social paradigm-Shift that has already begun, it’s to convince you that “socialism for the rich, market capitalism for the poor” is unsustainable and neoliberalism has led to the collapse of people “having a better life than their parents.” ### ⭐⭐⭐ The Tale of Three Narrative Lines *by T***) on Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2020* This book, Fully Automated Luxury Communism, really consists of three parts. One is broad look at the development of technological stages in modern human civilization. The author calls these technological stages “disruptions.” The first is the development of planned agriculture, the second is the Industrial Revolution, and the third is the evolution of automation at the workplace. We’ve seen this type of analysis before, in a slightly different classifications, but enlightening nonetheless. The second narrative is a detailed description of the extent to which automation has taken over the workplace and our lives. I would say that this narrative takes up approximately sixty percent of the book.Then there is the third part, what the author calls a manifesto, of what is called Fully Automated Luxury Communism. What are the displaced workers to do? Fully Automated Luxury Communism. Fully Automated Luxury Communism is the result of a Universal Basic Income, negotiated and implemented by existing financial institutions, allowed after active participation in the existing political systems, with the blessings of Karl Marx.You can see the problem with this structure. Fully Automated Luxury Communism is an illustration of an age-old question of how societal change happens: To work outside or within the System. The author definitely proposes reform within the Capitalistic structure. But, for example, for a political apparatus which has only grudgingly accepted and at the same time has actively attempted to overturn Obamacare through the Courts since its enactment, the real question is whether that same apparatus would accept a Universal Basic Income with open arms. And while the author is correct in saying Karl Marx marveled at technological advancements, he was also very clear that the entire system as a whole needed to be changed, not, as the author has suggested, simply reformed or “reforged.”My intent is not to disparage the author’s treatment. This is a good read. Workplace automation is a serious topic with serious repercussions and he has more than adequately described the extent and seriousness of the issue. But whether the changes the author proposes can actually happen with the existing apparatuses seems more like Socialist science fiction than a likely projection. I hope I am wrong. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/135707825-fully-automated-luxury-communism-kindle-edition](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/135707825-fully-automated-luxury-communism-kindle-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
