Description

Featuring contributions by such leading scholars as Mike Goodman (Baruch College), Benjamin Huybrechts (University of Liège), Andrew E. G. Jonas (University of Hull), Roger Lee (University of Chicago), Peter North (Swansea University), and Katinka Weber (University of Liverpool), this collection explores alternative modes of economic and social exchange, including credit unions, alternative currencies, sustainable consumption, and social enterprises, and their performance in relation to and beyond the economic mainstream. The volume introduces a framework for transitioning to a more sustainable economic system while reconceptualizing the system itself in our scholarly thinking and daily lives.
