Description

In Unmaking Goliath: Community Control in the Face of Global Capital, James DeFilippis challenges the idea that local communities are helpless against large, mobile corporations. This book provides an important contribution to urban political economy literature by examining how localities can maintain autonomy in an era of high capital mobility. DeFilippis looks at practical and political methods to protect social justice and egalitarian values. The text explores the potential of collectively owned, local enterprises as a way to resist the influence of global capital. Instead of accepting the powerlessness of small communities, this work offers a study of how local agency can be used to create real change. It is a necessary read for those studying economics, urban politics, and the effects of globalization on local structures.
