What is your proposed alternative? I struggle to think of any system that doesn’t inevitably result in concentrations of power

    Social Democracy. Commerce is key to strong economies, not capitalistic wealth hoarding.

    Concentrations of power is made from the greed of people. Honestly, I beliefe that any sufficiently large society will eventually fall into capitalism, and the other way around, capitalism encourages border-less states, making effectively bigger communities.

    However, with the current economic trend of de-globalization, things may eventually change.

    I'd agree, but I think public sentiment for globalization is souring. Right wing populists have been gaining in elections the last 10 years because of this, running largely anti-immigration and economically protectionist. I think they're predicting a future reduction in globalization based on this.
