C. George Benello Books

A revised edition of a classic work long out of print, this book is based on the Schumacher Society Seminars on Community Economic Transformation. It presents the underlying ideas and essential institutions for building sustainable communities. The three major sections of the book deal with community land trusts and other forms of community ownership of natural resources; worker-managed enterprises, and other techniques of community self-management; and community currency and banking.

C. George Benello (1927-1987) was professor of sociology at Cornell University, the University of Massachusetts, Goddard College, McGill University, and Concordia University. He was active in the anti-war movement, and he founded the Federation of Economic Democracy and the journal Changing Work.
