<p>For years, we've been taught that capitalism is good for freedom. Dominant right-wing talk radio hosts to this day recommend “libertarian” classics like Hayek's Road to Serfdom and Friedman's Capitalism and Freedom that claim markets free us, and this picture still dominates the schools and the political spectrum. Well get bent, one percent, because Rob Larson's Capitalism vs. Freedom: The Toll Road to Serfdom puts big business under a microscope. This book debunks the conservative classics while demonstrating that the marketplace has its own great centers of power, which the libertarian tradition itself claims is a limit to freedom. In fact, Larson illustrates how capitalism fails both this and other concepts of human liberty―not just failing to establish a right to a share of society's production, but also leaving us subject to the great power plays of the one percent's corporate property.</p>

This work is not designed to be exclusively a compendium of readily-adapted classroom ideas or engineering techniques, the authors' intent is rather to make a contribution to the repertoire of useful strategies for orchestrating design technology experiences. The book presents a grassroots, child-centred approach to true education transformation - educators may see this as part of a new progressivism which includes such elements as co-operative learning, the whole language approach to literacy, and inquiry approaches in science and mathematics. The chapters of the book roughly follow an approximation of the design process, from context to case studies.
