Abstract

Diverse economy thinking has contributed to a better understanding of the range of motivations, desires, and practices that shape how people engage in economic transactions. This chapter reviews how transactions affect people’s lives, relationships with other people, and relationships with the non-human world. It explores how ethics, relationships, value, trust and certainty shape how people undertake transactions, and the kinds of economic infrastructure and systems that emerge to both enable and constrain how and what people exchange. The chapter concludes by highlighting future questions around diverse economies, and points to the work community economy scholars are doing to foster more equitable and generative transactions.
