A just society is possible from "summary" of Another World is Possible by David McNally

In a world scarred by racism, sexism, and economic exploitation, the idea of a just society may seem like a utopian fantasy. Yet, the truth is that a just society is not only possible but necessary for the survival and flourishing of humanity. A just society is one in which all individuals have equal access to resources, opportunities, and rights. It is a society in which everyone is treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their race, gender, or social class. The path to a just society begins with a radical transformation of the existing social order. Capitalism, with its insatiable drive for profit and exploitation of workers, must be dismantled and replaced with a system based on solidarity, cooperation, and mutual aid. This means challenging the power structures that perpetuate inequality and injustice, whether they be economic, political, or cultural. Building a just society also requires a reimagining of our relationships with one another and with the natural world. It means rejecting the logic of competition and individualism in favor of community and sustainability. It means recognizing that we are all interconnected and that our fates are bound up with one another. The struggle for a just society is not easy. It requires courage, determination, and a willingness to confront entrenched power and privilege. It means standing up to injustice, even when it seems overwhelming. But history has shown us that change is possible, that ordinary people can come together to challenge the status quo and create a better world.
  1. The vision of a just society is not a distant dream but a tangible possibility. It is a world in which we can all live with dignity, freedom, and equality. It is a world in which our humanity is recognized and celebrated. Another world is not only possible – it is necessary. And it is up to us to make it a reality.
