Dear friends,
I'm very pleased to announce that the Community Economies Institute will be holding its second summer school 'Methods for a Postcapitalist Politics' in June 2020, in Bolsena, Italy. We are now inviting expressions of interest, due by January 30th
The week long program will provide an opportunity to engage with the methods and practice of community economies research. The week will provide an in-depth look at the founding concepts and tools of community economies approaches, an exploration of examples of how these ideas are being put into practice by artists, activists, community groups and scholars, and opportunities to experiment with community economies methods. With a balance of short talks from community economies experts, practice-based workshop sessions, and field excursions the course will lead participants through an engaging and creative program that covers:
- Surviving well together – what do we really need to live healthy lives, in ways that do not impinge on others’ healthy lives (including the planet).
- Distributing surplus – what do we do with what is left over from meeting our survival needs? How to decide what to do with it?
- Encountering others – what kinds of relationships do we have with other people and environments as we seek to survive well?
- Consuming sustainably – what do we use up in the process of surviving well?
- Caring for commons – how do we maintain, restore and replenish our natural, social and intellectual commons?
- Investing in future generations – how do we store and use our surplus for the wellbeing of people and planet into the future?
The Summer School is aimed at anyone interested in learning more about action oriented research and to deepen their engagement with applied community economic thinking. The course will use Take Back the Economy: An Ethical Guide for Transforming Our Communities (2013) by J.K. Gibson-Graham, Jenny Cameron and Stephen Healy as the key text. Other readings will be provided depending on the interests and aspirations of the participants.
Expressions of Interest in attending this Summer School should be registered by January 30th using the following google form: https://forms.gle/xjeDkvTDKSBLSk759
For more information please see the attached brochure.
Please circulate widely!
