Full title :A postcapitalist politics / J.K. Gibson-Graham.

Summary

"A postcapitalist politics reveals a prolific landscape of economic diversity - one that is not exclusively or predominantly capitalist - and examines the challenges and successes of alternative economic interventions. Marshaling empirical evidence from local economic projects and action research in the United States, Australia, and Asia, Gibson-Graham produces a distinctive political imaginary with three intersecting moments: a politics of language, of the subject, and of collective action. Describing a politics of possibility that can build different economies, they urge us to confront the forces that stand in the way of economic experimentation and to explore new ways of moving from theory to action." --book cover.
