Reindustrialise Britain: A Strategy for Wealth Creation

By Costas Lapavitsas, Larry Elliott, Doug Nicholls

Britain is broken: its economy hollowed out, unbalanced, and unable to provide good livelihoods for millions. We import too much, make too little, and keep wages low. Neoliberalism has failed.

This book puts forward a concrete, costed programme for real economic renewal: rebuilding the foundations of industry, expanding manufacturing, and lifting productivity through skilled work, investment and domestic capacity. It outlines a practical route to generating real wealth rather than recycling financial gains. To deliver it requires sovereignty to plan and invest, and democratic power to mobilise the necessary workers, skills and institutions.

This bold intervention is a blueprint for economic revival. Anyone who wishes to be part of the democratic movement that is needed to make this happen should read this book.
