Advancing an intersectional theory of hegemony, this book shows how various power relations interact through capitalist structures of othering. Going beyond the usual critiques of capitalism, it analyses the market itself as a principal cause of various forms of externalisation and domination. The book therefore calls for a dismantling of the market and its competitive economic structures through a transformation of the economy from below, greater democratisation (not least for the empowerment of suppressed identities), and the creation of commons as spaces based on inclusion rather than exclusion.

In doing so, Overcoming Exploitation and Externalisation argues that co-operative possibilities can emerge for the transformation of ourselves and our society. It will therefore appeal to scholars and students of social and political theory with interests in the commons and alternatives to capitalism.

Friederike Habermann is an independent economist, historian, and scholar-activist. Her research is particularly concerned with the interlinkage of sexist, racist, classist, anthropocentric and other power relations with market society. She views commoning as a promising alternative to these power relations and she has been active as a press coordinator in the global grassroots movement, Peoples’ Global Action.
