Gibson-Graham presented a groundbreaking and controversial argument for envisioning alternative economies. This new edition includes an introduction in which the authors address critical responses to \u003ci\u003eThe End of Capitalism\u003c\/i\u003e and outline the economic research and activism they have been engaged in since the book was first published. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Paralyzing problems are banished by this dazzlingly lucid, creative, and practical rethinking of class and economic transformation.\" -Meaghan Morris, Lingnan University, Hong Kong \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Profoundly imaginative.\" -Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, City University of New York \"Filled with insights, it is clearly written and well supported with good examples of actual, deconstructive practices.\" -International Journal of Urban and Regional Research \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e J.

Ironically, the author argues, it is not the economic discourse of the right but primarily the socialist and Marxist traditions that have constituted capitalism as large, powerful, active, expansive, penetrating, systematic, self-reproducing, dynamic, victorious, and capable of conferring identity and meaning. What this has meant for left politics is the continual deferral of anticapitalist projects of social transformation and noncapitalist initiatives of economic innovation, since these presumably would have little chance of success in the face of a predominantly or exclusively capitalist economy. In this book J. K. Gibson-Graham explores the possibility of more enlivening modes of economic thought and action, outside and beyond the theory and practice of capitalist reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 348\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 8.98 x 6.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2006\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52337655939346,"sku":"9780816648054","price":50.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/WXh4Unl5ZXZVaXQxM2FPOVZkb3NQdz09.webp?v=1780463185","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/the-end-of-capitalism-as-we-knew-it-a-feminist-critique-of-political-economy-paperback","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
