Whether from an industrialised country such as the US or from South Africa, the need for an alternative can be felt all over the world. It is clear nowadays that, due to the non-democratic nature and inadequacies of capitalism, another system must take its place. Such a process has already begun through the cooperative movement, which this book examines along with other initiatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing essays by international scholars and activists from various spheres of the anti-capitalist left, the work presents many examples from the north and the south, covering both historically-advanced and late capitalist economies. It discusses initiatives such as participatory economics, the Mondragon experience, worker cooperatives in Europe and Latin America, solidarity economy in South Africa, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten in an accessible manner, \u003cem\u003eBeyond Capitalism\u003c\/em\u003e will be an invaluable resource for any student of social movements and political thought, and for anyone looking for alternatives to today's ongoing systemic crises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47595789156588,"sku":"9781623567972","price":162.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781623567972-beyond-capitalism.jpg?v=1777907434","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/beyond-capitalism-9781623567972","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
