Cooperative economic democracy is a central theme throughout our work- a framework of concepts, values, and practices that give priority to
resilience over economic growth
co-operation over competition
sufficiency over efficiency
well-being over the right to possess
fairness and equity over the primacy of markets, trade, and capital
decentralized and democratic ownership over centralized power and private ownership
climate justice and just transition
the commons over the rights of private property, and
our dependence upon nature over our right to dominate it.
