:: Greenpepper Magazine :: Life Beyond the Market Issue ::
Call for Contributors ::

GREENPEPPER is an Amsterdam-based environmental and social
justice magazine focusing on direct and autonomist action.

To coincide with the Life After Capitalism conference to
be held in New York City in August 2004 the theme one of
the upcoming issues of the magazine is LIFE BEYOND THE
MARKET.

GREENPEPPER is currently looking for contributions for the
LIFE BEYOND THE MARKET issue. Topics to be explored
include (but are not limited to):

Post-capitalist economic models / solidarity economics  /
occupied factories, barter networks, unions of the
unemployed / worker collectives and participatory
economics, alternative currencies and land trusts /
autonomous unionism and operaismo / self-managed
workplaces / Linux and Open source, forms of gift
economies /dual power structures and economic solidarity.
For more ideas on possible contributions see the list
below.

Contributions can be written text (either 1000-1500 or
2500-3000 words) or other visual submissions (1-3 A4
landscape pages) and must be sent to us by June 15.  More
importantly, contributions should be critical, generative
of different ways of thinking about and/or visualising
these issues, and relevant to those engaged in political
and cultural struggles around building cooperative
economies.
