Thanks for sharing, Ashish. This is quite interesting, especially because Goonj's work is very close to this thought, creating a barter between two new non monetary currencies; urban surplus material and people's efforts, wisdom and resources, to address their own neglected community issues. Across India the most missed out people self prioritise their problems and co-create solutions that are evolved from their own contexts, knowledge, efforts and natural resources. Anitra - Thanks for this insightful piece. For development and disaster response work across the world, enabling and nourishing new non monetary currencies in this time of economic slowdown, is also strategically crucial.

Friends,
A new article, "Is post-capitalism post-money?" by Anitra Nelson has been uploaded to the Radical Ecological Democracy website:
https://radicalecologicaldemocracy.org/is-post-capitalism-post-money%ef%bf%b...
If money is the lynchpin of the contemporary capitalist order then it is imperative that an alternative to that world is imagined and crafted outside the constraints of money. In her path-breaking new book, “Beyond Money, A Post-Capitalist Strategy”, Anitra Nelson lays the ideological foundation of a post-money society based on real, non-monetary, social and ecological values that define a new order committed to fulfilling people’s basic needs. In this exclusive article for RED, Nelson provides an insight into her revolutionary ideas essential for designing a world without socio-economic inequality and crippling environmental stresses.
Please take a look and join the discussion on RED listserv and the website discussion forum. The author is copied here in case you would like to contact her directly. This is the first article in a three part series that RED has planned on Anitra Nelson's book.
Also, Pluto Press is offering the RED readers an exclusive 30% discount on the book - the details are available at the end of the article. This discount ends on the 30th of April/2022.
Best,
Pallav
