Description

In Social Economy in Asia: Realities and Perspectives, thirteen scholars from various academic disciplines analyze the reality and different understandings of the social economy in Asia. By providing detailed case studies, engaging in comparative and global discussions, and examining theoretical and policy-relevant implications, the contributors to this collection argue that the Asian social economy has uniquely benefited as a modern economic system with a human-centric approach.

Reviews

The contemporary story of the global expansion of SSE is starting to be told but it has lacked a major chapter--what is happening in the world's most populous region: Asia Theoretically grounded and empirically rich, this volume brings out the diversity, hopes, achievements, and challenges of the myriad organizations, enterprises, and networks that seek an alternative to business-as-usual.

--Peter Utting, co-founder of the United Nations Task Force on Social and Solidarity Economy
