Goodman, Benjamin Huybrechts, Andrew E.G. Jonas, Roger Lee, Peter North, and Katinka Weber) concerned with alternative modes of economic and social exchange. The cases addressed in these contributions - including credit unions, alternative currencies, sustainable consumption, and social enterprises - deliver valuable insights into how such alternatives are performed at various scales and spaces in relation to and beyond the economic mainstream. In sum, the collection provides vital grounds for both a transition of the economic system towards a more sustainable one, and a reconceptualisation of the economic itself in our scholarly thinking and everyday lives. 330 1 $a»This book is a welcome addition to the alternative economics literature, and would be helpful for students, academics and practitioners. The book clearly illustrates the complexity and various ethical negotiations facing those of us interested in alternative socio-economic practices.« Gradon Diprose, International Journal of Community Currency Research, 18 (2014) »Das Buch zeichnet sich durch eine fu?r Sammelba?nde ungewo?hnliche Koha?renz aus. Es erga?nzt Standardwerke aus dem angelsa?chsischen und franzo?sischsprachigen Raum [...] durch seine differenzierten konzeptionellen Perspektiven und sektoralen Beispiele. Es eignet sich daher als hervorragende Einstiegslektu?re in ein Themenfeld, das in der Geographie in den na?chsten Jahren weiter an Dynamik gewinnen du?rfte.« Christian Schulz, Geographische Zeitschrift, 103/2 (2015) »Insgesamt machen die Beitra?ge [...] zwei strukturelle Merkmale der Debatte u?ber real mo?gliche Nachhaltigkeit deutlich: Anna?herungen bedu?rfen in diesem Feld immer einer pluridisziplina?ren Perspektive - von der Geografie u?ber die Politik bis zu den Ingenieurwissenschaften - und beno?tigen eine grundlegende Debatte daru?ber, was das gute Leben im 21. Jahrhundert, noch dazu in einem globalen Maßstab, eigentlich sein soll.« Matthias Lemke, Portal fu?r Politikwissenschaft, 24.04.2014 Besprochen in: http://www.ku.de (2014) 410 0$aGlobal studies (Bielefeld, Germany) 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aRegional economics 610 $aAlternative Economic Spaces. 610 $aAlternative Economies. 610 $aCultural Geography. 610 $aEconomy. 610 $aGeography. 610 $aGlobalization. 610 $aSocial Geography. 610 $aSpace. 610 $aSustainability. 610 $aTransition. 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aRegional economics. 676 $a338.9 702 $aHillebrand$b Sebastian 702 $aZademach$b Hans-Martin 712 02$aKatholische Universita?t Eichsta?tt-Ingolstadt, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910213856403321 996 $aAlternative Economies and Spaces$92155610 997 $aUNINA
