All too often, ordinary people across the world are being told that the problem of organization is already solved, or that it is being solved somewhere else, or that it need not concern them because they have no choices. This dictionary provides those who disagree with the evidence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUsing hundreds of entries and cross-references, it proves that there are many alternatives to the way that we currently organize ourselves. These alternatives could be expressed as fictional utopias, they could be excavated from the past, or they could be described in terms of the contemporary politics of anti-corporate protest, environmentalism, feminism and localism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePart reference work, part source book, and part polemic, this dictionary provides a rich understanding of the ways in which fiction, history and today's politics provide different ways of thinking about how we can and should organize for the coming century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Parker, Valerie Fournier, Patrick Reedy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 184277333X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781842773338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.15h x 6.23w x 0.65d","brand":"Martin Parker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938912534783,"sku":"9781842773338","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_dd21d2b5-b16a-4724-bdd3-03b26d450079.jpg?v=1681438409","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-dictionary-of-alternatives-doctor-martin-parker-9781842773338","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
