“Robert Hockett’s groundbreaking new book, A Republic of Producers, shows his remarkable command of political history, philosophy, economics, and law. It is a magnum opus that makes a generational contribution to scholarship on political economy. The solutions he offers to some of our most stubborn economic problems have never been more urgently needed than right now.”—Congressman Ro Khanna, author of Dignity in a Digital Age“With pure genius and stunning American history lessons, Robert Hockett demonstrates how a new form of finance can broaden ownership for wealth opportunities for many citizens. Hockett’s plan for greater wealth security based on broadening property ownership under capitalism should be the guidepost for every investment banker and major financial services firm in the United States for the next century.”—Joseph Blasi, Rutgers University Institute for Employee Ownership, and author of The Citizen’s Share
