Abstract

This commentary was invited by the special editors of this issue and is partly based on the Community Economies session that the four authors organised at the Social Movements Conference III: Resistance and Social Change in Wellington, 2016. In the Community Economies session we reviewed the diverse-economies framework and showed how it translates into a politics grounded in economic difference, specifically non-capitalist economic practices. We gave various examples of how people enrol different practices into the formation of community economies that prioritise ethical interdependence among people and with the planet. In what follows we briefly outline some key theoretical underpinnings of Community Economies scholarship, and then provide some reflections on the questions asked during the 2016 conference session.
