Moving Beyond Capitalism

Moving Beyond Capitalism speaks to the widespread quest for concrete alternative ways forward in the face of the prevailing corporatocracy. It examines a number of institutions and practices now being built in the nooks and crannies of present societies and that point beyond capitalism toward as more equal, participatory, and democratic society – institutions such as co-operatives, public banks, the commons, economic democracy. This seminal collection draws on academic and activist voices from the U.S., Mexico, Cuba, Argentina and a variety of perspectives – Marxism, anarchism, feminism, and Zapatismo.
