This book is an introduction to the works of a collective of
academics on social innovation and socio-political transformation.
It offers a critique of the dominance of market-based logics and
extractivism in the age of neoliberalism. Calling for systemic
change, the authors invite the reader to engage in the analysis and
practice of socially innovative initiatives and, by doing so,
contribute to the co-construction of a sustainable,
solidarity-based and regenerative society. This book will not only
be an inspiration for many academics and researchers broadly
interested in social innovation, but also for social movements and
their protagonists challenging the dominance of the status quo. In
addition, it will appeal to policymakers and politicians who want
to appreciate contemporary ways of thinking and gain inspiration on
how to better meet the needs of the communities they serve.
