TL;DRAbstract

Developing their earlier arguments against the centrality given to capitalist relations in economic analysis, J. K. Gibson-Graham's recent work has sought to outline the contours of a 'postcapitalist politics' based on a more diverse set of economic arrangements. Their aim is to go beyond the level of critique to explore economic alternatives; at the same time, their account is levelled at the pessimism of the 'resigned' left.
