Beyond Racial Capitalism

Co-Operatives in the African Diaspora

Herausgeber: Hossein, Caroline Shenaz; Edmonds, Kevin; Austin, Sharon D Wright

Knowledge-making in the field of alternative economies has limited the inclusion of Black and racialized people's experience. This book aims to close that gap in development through a detailed analysis of cases in about a dozen countries where Black people live and turn to co-operatives to manage systemic exclusion.
