David Schweickart is a professor of philosophy at Loyola University Chicago, holding PhDs in both mathematics and philosophy.
He has developed a model of market socialism called Economic Democracy, which combines workplace self-management, democratic control of capital investment, and market mechanisms.
Schweickart has lectured internationally and contributed to various publications on economic alternatives.
His work, including "After Capitalism," proposes a system where firms are socially owned and worker-managed, competing in markets while profit is shared among workers.
Schweickart's ideas aim to address the flaws of capitalism while maintaining some market elements, offering a pragmatic approach to socialist economics.
