Neoliberal capitalism positions us all as consumers in a hypermarket
where money talks. For the majority of people around the globe, this
translates as precarity and immiseration. But how can we break from
this dominant ideological framework? Expose, Oppose, Propose details
how, since the mid 1970s, transnational alternative policy groups
(TAPGs) have functioned as think tanks of a different sort, generating
resources for a globalization from below in dialogue with the critical
social movements that are protagonists for global justice. Based on
two years of intensive research, William Carroll not only provides a
detailed examination of a variety of TAPGs – showing how each group
is distinctive and autonomous in its vision, practical priorities, and
ways of producing and mobilizing alternative knowledge – but also
reveals how TAPGs form a master frame that advocates and envisages
global justice and ecological wellbeing.
