It's a little on the wordy side, but the core principles seem to be:
a) democraticisation of the economy b) social welfare through public industry c) global perspective
Obviously, I don't disagree with any of these. But the author is a little heavy on the adjectives and light on the verbs.
The constitutional framing is, of course, the sort of the thing that idealists can spend a lot of time and energy on, when perhaps they could look at some of the "great constitutions" in history for comparison first. Also, I do worry a little about the mind that becomes obsessive on affixes in words to the point that they must be highlighted and italicised.
