New Consensus Press publishes the books, pamphlets, and stories that carry the new consensus into the world. Ideas change history only when they are made vivid, readable, and free. So we publish across every form the written word can take, from graphic novels and pocket pamphlets to major works of history and economics, and we give them away.
Our purpose is educational: to equip a generation to imagine, argue for, and build an economy that works for everyone. Every title is free to read, free to share, and licensed for anyone to build on.
Why a press?
The old consensus was not won in a single election. It was built over decades with many tools: think tanks, media, donors, and political organizing. Books were one of the most important. Popular paperbacks, academic tomes, foundation pamphlets, and op-eds slowly made one story about markets and government feel like plain common sense. Books are not the only tool a movement needs, but they are an essential one, and we intend to use them the same way: not with a single white paper, but with a whole shelf.
New Consensus Press is where that shelf takes shape. Some of our titles are works of imagination, like Looking Backward from 2100 to 2027, which lets readers walk through a world that already works. Others are works of argument and reporting, like the Lucky Bastards pamphlets, which take apart the myths propping up the current order. Whatever the form, the aim is the same: to make the case for a better economy in language people actually want to read, and to put it in as many hands as possible, for free.
