- A citizen's guide on how to create a new and more humane world economy, written for a wide general readership.
- The book lays out a radical alternative to the existing ways of organizing the global economy, putting the wellbeing of people and communities, rather than the profits of banks and corporations, at the centre.
- The volume includes over thirty original essays which address topics such as globalization, microcredit and corporate social responsibility.
- This book offers a creative and practical vision of an alternative way of organizing our social and economic life, inspired by the ideas of the World Social Forum at Porte Alegre, in which the editors and many of the authors have been active participants.
