I may have to read it again, but the premise of this article in the Guardian seems to be that neoliberal capitalism is up against some serious future problems (climate change, migration, energy depletion), and that therefore what we are seeing now (basically, "information," the sharing economy, food co-ops in Greece, Uber, whatever is hip to talk about) must be somehow starting to bring it down or reform it from the cracks within.  Somehow - because it seems to be cranking along pretty happily to the edge of the cliff, to me - its beneficiaries and those towed along happy to draw as much from the doomed enterprise as possible before it goes over, rather than start an orderly transition.

Any thoughts?
