This week on the pod, we talk to Dr. Manuel Pastor about how we can build a better economy centered on people, equity, and mutuality.
Dr. Pastor talks to us about his latest book, “Solidarity Economics:Why Mutuality and Movements Matter” which he co-authored with Dr. Chris Benner. Here is what Angela Glover Blackwell, Founder of PolicyLink, has to say about this book.
“In this powerful blueprint for an equitable future, Manuel Pastor and Chris Benner provide a bold critique of conventional wisdom about who owns the economy.
They challenge us to radically imagine how we can design OUR economy to be fully inclusive and guided by the principles of mutuality and solidarity, ensuring that we put people first.”
Dr. Pastor ‘s research generally focuses on issues of the economic, environmental and social conditions facing low-income urban communities – and the social movements seeking to change those realities. You can learn about him and about Solidarity Economics here: https://solidarityeconomics.org/
