Social geographers and other social scientists offer a distinctive approach to rethinking economy that is inspired by the "diverse economies" research agenda pioneered by J. K. Gibson-Graham,
and is in conversation with other contemporary projects that are reconfiguring "the economy" as an effort of various kinds of performativity. Their topics include performing economies of care
in a New England time bank and Buddhist community, nature’s diverse economies: reading political ecology for economic difference, situating wild product gathering in a diverse economy:
negotiating ethical interactions with natural resources, international migration and the global household: performing diverse economies on the world stage, and the politics of mapping
solidarity economics and diverse economies in Brazil and the northeastern US. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
