Economic Democracy Weekly

Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly features an interview from NPQ’s latest magazine issue with Sara Horowitz, founder of the Freelancers’ Union, on mutualism’s history and its lessons for co-ops and community-based economic institutions today; we also feature an excerpt from her recent book on mutualism.
