Owning Our Future: The Emerging Ownership Revolution
9781605093109
Description
Building an Economy That Works for AllAs long as businesses are set up to focus exclusively on maximizing financial income for the few, our economy will be locked into endless growth and widening inequality. But now people are experimenting with new forms of ownership, which Marjorie Kelly calls aimed at creating the conditions for life for many generations to come. These designs may hold the key to the deep transformation our civilization needs.To understand these emerging alternatives, Kelly reports from all over the world, visiting a community-owned wind facility in Massachusetts, a lobster cooperative in Maine, a multibillion-dollar employee-owned department-store chain in London, a foundation-owned pharmaceutical company in Denmark, a farmer-owned dairy in Wisconsin, and other places where a hopeful new economy is being built. Along the way, she finds the five essential patterns of ownership design that make these models work.Winner of the 2013 Nautilus Silver Award in the category of Business/Leadership.
