	the politics of money: towards sustainability and economic democracy Frances Hutchinson, Mary Mellor and Wendy Olsen On the whole, classical and radical economists have marginalized the role of money in driving the machinery of accumulation and exclusion. Although critiques of capitalism from Marxist, feminist, ecological and many other perspectives abound, 'The Politics of Money' is unique in gathering the strengths of these differing critiques into a coherent whole. The authors draw upon their varied expertise to produce the foundations of a new political economy that will enable communities to reconstruct their socio-economic fabric through social and political control of money systems. 248pp click on image for contents page more on money & trade Price: £18.99

	shopped: the shocking power of british supermarkets Joanna Blythman An elegant demolition of the supermarket miracle, this book charts the impact that supermarkets have had on every aspect of our lives and culture. Did you know! / Almost 50% of supermarket fruit and vegetables contain pesticide residues? / UK supermarkets make 40p on every GBP1 spent on bananas while plantations workers are paid just 1p? / Supermarkets instill a climate of fear amongst their suppliers? / Every time a supermarket opens the local community loses on average 276 jobs? In the 1970s, British supermarkets had only 10% of the UK's grocery spend. Now they swallow up 80%, influencing how we shop, what we eat, how we spend our leisure time, how much rubbish we generate, even the very look of our physical environment. Award-winning food writer Joanna Blythman investigates the enormous impact that these big box retailers are having on our lives. She meets the farmers who are selling food to supermarkets for less than they need to survive and the wholesalers who have been eliminated from the supply chain; she travels to suburban retail parks to meet the teenagers and part-timers who stack our shelves and reveals the hoops third world suppliers must jump through to earn supermarket contracts. This thought-provoking, witty and sometimes chilling voyage of discovery is sure to make you think twice before you enthusiastically reach for that supermarket trolley again. Contains new material on the 'Tesocisation' of Britain. 400pp more on money & trade Price: £7.99
