{"product_id":"9781529224542","title":"From Capital to Commons : Exploring the Promise of a World beyond Capitalism by Hannes Gerhardt","description":"A Choice Outstanding Academic Title in Economics 2023.   In this stimulating analysis, Hannes Gerhardt outlines the potentials and challenges of a technology-enabled, commons-focused transition out of capitalism.   The book shows that openness and cooperation are more beneficial in today's economies and societies than competition and profit-seeking. Driven by this conviction, Gerhardt identifies key imperatives for overcoming capitalism, from democratizing our digital, material, and financial economies to maintaining a robust, political mobilization. Using clear examples, he explores tactical openings through the lens of `compeerism', a newly constructed framework that highlights the latent counter-capitalist possibilities, but also limits, of our emerging technological landscape.   This is an accessible contribution to counter-capitalist discourse that is both inspiring and pragmatic for academics and activists alike.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56303794291061,"sku":"9781529224542","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529224542.jpg?v=1762794923","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781529224542","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
