Radical Economics
Reviving the Gift Economy in a Consumer World
This website is our attempt to suggest ways to live out the radical economics of THE Gift .
THE Gift economy is not yet the world that dominates our lives. Competitive advantage and over-consumption rule. We are seduced into believing that the violent consumer world we live in is “just the way things are,” or “it may not be the best possible, but it is the best of the alternatives.” But is this really the best out there? What if ours is not to ask first the question “is this realistic,” but with all humility and creativity to follow the Radical Economics of THE Gift? |
