For 10 years, CapX has brought you the best writing on politics, economics, markets and ideas, underpinned by a commitment to make the case for popular capitalism. CapX is free and designed to save you time. Not only do we commission some of the world's leading writers, we also locate the smart stories published elsewhere around the world that you need to read to stay informed. Using cutting edge machine learning technology, our editors scour hundreds of thousands of news sources, blogs, academic papers and think tank publications. We believe that with global capitalism as an engine of human progress tainted by the financial crisis, it is more important than ever that the argument is made in defence of markets, innovation and competition. They are what drive increased prosperity. But popular capitalism is not just about spreading opportunities for wealth creation. It includes nurturing a set of institutions that best allows political freedom and civil society to flourish, while recognising the need for a small but effective state.
