Alternatives et critiques économiques - Questions démocratiques

2012-02-20T10:18:00Z

Un numéro de la revue d'écologie politique du think tank "Etopia", qui "quatre ans après le déclenchement officiel de la crise financière approfondit les angles de critiques du système libéral-productiviste actuel, en offrant des contributions de nature politique, économique et épistémologique. Il offre en outre des pistes d'alternatives à la machine économique infernale qui nous gouverne : économie verte, nouvelles réflexion sur la création et la diversité monétaires.

Alors que les risques démocratiques dont la crise est porteuse se font chaque jour plus manifestes, le second dossier aborde ces « questions démocratiques » par différents cas d'école : les partis pirates, le référendum sur l'indépendance écossaise, le G 1000, la présidentielle française, etc."

La revue est disponible gratuitement en téléchargement.

Intervention de Pierre Calame au forum asiatique de l'économie solidaire de novembre 2011 (Kuala Lumpur). My introduction could be summarized in two sentences in fact. We have made a long way over the past twenty years but the way ahead will be much longer and much harder.

Building Together Local Indicators for Societal Progress

Aurore Lalucq — 2011-04-05T13:14:21Z

A stage along the OECD Programme: "Measuring and Fostering the Progress of Societies" Economic competitiveness and efficiency remain the priorities sought by societies and the ultimate objectives of public policy, while these should only be intermediate goals. The well-being of everyone should be the ultimate objective of societies, served by appropriate public policies, and this is what should be measured. Today, we know that well-being cannot be reduced to material wealth, as measured by (...) - Colloquia & Conferences

The Financial Crisis, the US Economy, and International Security in the New Administration

Aurore Lalucq — 2011-04-05T13:14:19Z

The international financial system has come to a pass which we had not seen since 1929. The difficulties we are confronting will not be overcome by spontaneous market adjustments or minor regulatory interventions: what we need is a new financial architecture, built on new policies and new regulations. And though much depends on how the United States will act in the years to come, we need to put this issue in global perspective and address it on the international level. This was the theme (...) - Colloquia & Conferences
