They contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and a decline in public trust. The solution, argues social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market Stacey Edgar, is the artisan economy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eArtisan Economics\u003c\/i\u003e, Edgar proposes a shift toward an artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community connection over profit at all costs. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity—which define this alternative economic framework. Ultimately, she says, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eArtisan Economics\u003c\/i\u003e delves into:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurpose—Reclaiming Meaning in Work \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreativity—The Art of Problem Solving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResistance—Making as a Political Act \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSustainability—Craft, Climate, and the Living Economy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShared Prosperity and the Community of — How Value Flows When Everyone Counts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chelsea Green","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48986605519103,"sku":"9781645025016","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781645025016","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
