Mapping noncapitalist supply chains: Toward an alternate conception of value creation and distribution
基于美国新泽西州阿斯伯里帕克镇的参与式行动研究,探讨如何绘制团结经济地图,以促进替代性经济发展,并借鉴巴西团结经济运动的经验。
Organizational scholars pay insufficient attention to noncapitalist enterprises, which limits management theorizing. This article is based on a participatory action research project conducted in the town of Asbury Park in New Jersey, where community researchers attempted to map the solidarity economy of the region in order to promote a different kind of economic development. It presents the findings of the project, which involved investigating the economy and surveying collective forms of organizing in sectors such as agriculture and finance. Examining the well-developed Brazilian solidarity economy movement as contextual background, the lessons from that movement could prove useful to incipient US efforts. Using the findings of the Asbury Park project, the significance and implications of supply chains in sustaining alternative economies will be explored.
