Economic Theory and Community Development: Why putting community first is essential to our survival - Paperback

by Howard Richards (Author), Gavin Andersson (Author), Evelin Lindner (Foreword by)

This book critiques not just neoliberal economics but also the fundamental separation among humans that all economic theories presuppose. Excessive reliance on economic assumptions and practices has created a world bent on self-destruction while serving the true interests of no one.

This book celebrates community-based approaches now blossoming on all continents. Unbounded organizing, together with moral and ethical realism, offers a field-tested philosophy and methodology to provide dignity for all while nurturing the biosphere.
