Launched TODAY- Jan 4th – 1st of a trio – the others to follow in March and June – #WeAreRent Book 1: Capitalism, Cannibalism and why we must outlaw Free Riding by Fred Harrison | 4 Jan 2021 Paperback £14.00 Pre-order Price Guarantee. FREE delivery Released on January 4, 2021.
A new social paradigm is needed to overcome the economic disasters of Covid-19 and enable people to “build back better”. That paradigm exists. It would launch humanity on to a moral growth path and empower societies to survive the existential crises that threaten life on Earth.
In testing his thesis, Fred Harrison discovered that the world’s systemic crises originated in a single cause. Free riding is an anti-social form of behaviour that created the social, demographic and environmental threats which have plunged Homo sapiens into mortal danger.
Free riding deprives humanity of its economic Rent. Rent is the net income that working people produce to fund their shared services. Rent, Harrison reveals, originated as a unique flow of energy that became the living tissue of humanity. The author’s narrative unfolds with the aid of an enriched theory of evolution.
A democratic mandate is now needed for the financial reform that would neutralise the cannibalistic phase into which free-riding has consigned our world. Insights from the evolutionary blueprint, when combined with the fiscal disciplines of good governance, would nurture the healing of nature and society. ISBN 978-0-995635 -9-7 9 780995 635197

The other two books of the trio forthcoming by Fred Harrison
#WeAreRent Book 2 –The Death of Democracy & what we must do about it.
The fate of the West will be determined in 2026, predicts Fred Harrison. House prices around the world will peak, triggering the crash of the global economy. This time, unlike 2008, political and financial paralysis will drive the existential crises — environmental, demographic and military — to converge on a single catastrophic point in time. Defensive strategies can be constructed, if democratic consent can be mobilised for the reforms that would relaunch humanity back on to the evolutionary growth path. The author explains that renegotiation of the constitutions of the UK and European Union would serve as beacons of light for the rest of the world. But it is a race against time.
#WeAreRent Book 3 One-world Rent and the Social Galaxy
The global community of nations is on course for upheavals that cannot be avoided by resurrecting the policies that have repeatedly failed in the past. One strategy alone would provide the synergy to mobilise nation-states behind the common cause of humanity. Fred Harrison explains the political significance of cross-border sharing of a stream of value which all nations help to create. One-world Rent is the blueprint that would initiate, for the first time on planet Earth, an age of inclusive peace and prosperity. Communities would be empowered to expand personal freedom while initiating new approaches to global trade and the renewal of the environment. The outcome would be a reinvigorated Social Galaxy.
