The voices in this inspiring volume, of academics and activists engaged in a rich variety of struggles against the primacy of the market, point to the possibility of a world that is not entirely for sale. With stirring examples of determination to contest neoliberal forces that have brought about significant improvements in people’s lives, this collection is a must-read book for those who continue to hope for social change in the global economy. -- Verity Burgmann, Monash University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword by Mark Barenberg Acknowledgments  Chapter 1: Agents and methods of social change in the global economy  Shae Garwood and Sky Croeser Chapter 2: The Right to organize, living wage, and real change for garment workers Sarah Adler-Milstein, Jessica Champagne and Theresa Haas Chapter 3: Waste for Life: poverty-reducing technologies for repurposing waste at the margins Baillie and Eric Feinblatt Chapter 4: From toxic to green: turning mountains of e-waste into green jobs Bharati Chaturvedi Chapter 5: Social justice and fairness in global food systems Michael Heasman and Ralph Early Chapter 6: Challenging work: working conditions in the electronics industry Marisol Sandoval and Kristina Areskog Bjurling Chapter 7: Global supply chains – struggle within or against them?
