Networks of coops

Some people would start a book by an outline. I am going to start by listing chapters I want to write about.

The thing I am most intrigued about right now is the topic of Zoe Schlagg and Derek Razo’s new book about how networks of coops, like Poder Emma, and the Industrial Commons over in Morganton, and Ujima are clearly the most efficient relational structure that create the most community wealth for all faster than any other model.

Other chapters would be about innovative housing solutions, focusing on work force housing rather than affordable; that’s a crowded area. We would focus on innovative solutions that go around the cumbersome government driven models. And community owned commercial real estate. The land back movement. Community inclusion currencies like Serafu from Grassrootseconomics.

And giving to invest to create a movement of ally engagement that lasts over time.
