In the mid-1990s, at the height of discussion about the inevitability of capitalist globalization, J. K. Gibson-Graham presented a groundbreaking argument for envisioning alternative economies. This new edition includes an introduction in which the authors address critical responses to The End of Capitalism and outline the economic research and activism they have been engaged in since the book was first published

In this creatively argued follow-up to their book The End of Capitalism (As We Knew It), J.K. Gibson-Graham offer already existing alternatives to a global capitalist order and outline strategies for building alternative economies. A Postcapitalist Politics reveals a prolific landscape of economic diversity-one that is not exclusively or predominantly capitalist-and examines the challenges and successes of alternative economic interventions

Much of J. K. Gibson-Graham's work has been aimed at opening up ideas about what action is, both by broadening what is considered action (under the influence of feminist political imaginaries and strategies), and by refusing the old separation between theory and action. But the coming of the Anthropocene forced Julie and me to think more openly about what is the collective that acts. In this lecture I ask: what might it mean for a politics aimed at bringing other worlds into being to displace humans from the center of action and to see more-than-human elements as part of the collective that acts? The lecture proceeds with sections discussing (1) elements and limits of a feminist imaginary of possibility, (2) the synergies between a politics of building community economies and the political imaginary of actor-network theory, and (3) the materiality of emerging community economy assemblages.

Poststructuralism is a theoretical approach to knowledge and society that embraces the ultimate undecidability of meaning, the constitutive power of discourse, and the political effectivity of theory and research. In this paper the authors explore three poststructuralist concepts/strategies –deconstruction, genealogy, and performativity– highlighting their uses in economic geography. The paper concludes with an exploration of how poststructuralism transforms and politicizes the practice of social research. In relation to this, they examine three poststructuralist research projects that actively engage in producing or destabilizing discursive formations, thereby participating in the constitution of power, subjectivity and social possibility. ; El posestructuralismo es una aproximación teórica al conocimiento y la sociedad que acoge la incertidumbre de los significados, el poder constitutivo del discurso y la efectividad política de la teoría y la investigación. Las autoras exploran tres conceptos/estrategias posestructuralistas –la deconstrucción, la genealogía y la performatividad– resaltando su uso en la geografía económica. El artículo concluye con una exploración acerca de la manera como el posestructuralismo transforma y politiza la práctica de la investigación social. Al respecto se consideran tres proyectos de investigación posestructuralistas que se involucran en producir o desestabilizar formaciones discursivas, y de esta forma participan en la construcción de poder, subjetividad y posibilidad social.

Reconceptualizes contemporary society's relationship with capitalism, drawing on the film, The Full Monty, to examine issues raised in the author's (1996) work, highlighting queer identity, political affiliation, & noncapitalism. It is noted that the forced unemployment of several characters resulted in the proliferation of queer identities, eg, men becoming financially dependent on working women. Forced unemployment possesses the possibility of overcoming gender, class, & sexual identities that have previously obstructed societal recognition of queer identities. The author's role in organizing a videoconference that brought together businesses that use noncapitalist practices is discussed. From this experience, it is claimed that theories of economic difference & noncapitalism largely exist in noneconomic systems. Even though the implications of providing space for noncapitalist businesses are currently unknown, the number of economic communities continues to increase. 1 Reference. J. W. Parker
