For the future to be built, important current questions are the following: Will economic life be adjusted or transformed? Which way? By legal prescription or in an emergent manner? Empirically, or coherently? As regards the market, through regulation or through changing toward equity as a necessary base solidarity? As regards labor, through more organized workforce or self-management, equitable and efficient work, and democratic regulation? As regards populations, as accepted market-led globalization or as new equity? JEL codes: A13, B14, B51, D45, D63, D71, E22, J54, L31, P13
