Hello professor Henderson, thank you for doing this AmA. I have a few questions concerning your work :

1) What, according to your research, has lead capitalism to its current, unsustainable form? Is it perhaps, as is often argued, the spreak of neoliberal ideology and economic policy since the 1970s? Where did capitalism go wrong?

2) Could you tell us some of the main obstacles we deal with today in trying to make a new capitalism possible?

3) What role do you believe governments have today not only in reimagining but also in reestablishing capitalism? Also, are nation states generally still be able to act as a counter-powers to multinational companies today, or would an international authority need to be established (to dismantle tax havens for instance)?

4) How can a business executive / CEO convince their investors or shareholders of the urgent need for social and environnmental accountability, even at the risk of losing profits?
