We need an economic system that is both cooperative and competitive, with each balancing and complimenting the other. Lietaer and Dunne tell how such a balanced system can be created and, in fact, how it is already being built in many places around the world. Individual citizens, entrepreneurs, businesses, communities, and governments are creating new cooperative money systems that link unused resources with unmet needs. Over the past 30 years there has been a tremendous growth of cooperative currencies from fewer than 100 in 1980 to over 4,000 today. But we need many more of them spread more consistently all over the globe. We also need more large-scale cooperative currencies. The emergent cooperative currency movement needs to grow up. Dodging the dogma of both left or right Rethinking Money provides the roadmap for this to happen.
Bernard Lietaer has studied and worked in the field of money for more than 30 years as a Central Banker, a fund manager, a university professor, and a consultant to governments, multinational corporations, and community organizations. He co-designed and implemented the convergence mechanism to the single European currency system (the Euro). He co-founded and managed GaiaCorp, a top performing currency fund whose profits funded investments in environmental projects. He is currently a Research Fellow at the Center for Sustainable Resources of the University of California at Berkeley. Jacqui Dunne is an award-winning journalist from Ireland who has produced and guest hosted hour-long radio interviews, which have been syndicated through Public Radio. Dunne is currently CEO of Entrepreneurs without Borders, a for-profit organization that supports emergent, socially conscientious, and profitable technologies.
