Alternativas económicas hacia la construcción de otros mundos posibles

The structural crisis context, which has been exacerbated globally in the past three or four decades, has led to the creation of social practices and organizations dedicated to the satisfaction of needs outside conventional markets, in an attempt to create a sense of community and autonomy by recovering social relations, the environment and the health of the population, all of which have been affected by the currently dominant mass production and consumption model. The recent proliferation of alternative markets, consumption cooperatives, community gardens, bartering clubs and other proposals that have emerged in cities around the world such as Guadalajara, account for the ways in which the utopia of a better world is built on a daily basis from consumption decisions, exchange and self-sufficiency. By mapping actors in the city's alternative economies, we were able to identify the configuration of a network of spaces in which these practices were promoted, as well as the horizons to which their meaning is anchored
