No topic is more vital than how to rebuild trust in capitalism -- yet none is more slippery. Adam Arvidsson and Nicolai Peitersen have done us all a huge favor by thinking it through so thoroughly and above all so realistically., The authors address important questions about the impact of new organizational models and modern communication technologies on the value and underlying ethics of business. The book offers a thought-provoking combination of ethics and economics to propose a new value regime that will contribute to our understanding of how business can become a force for good in sustainable development. In particular the analysis of the ethics of collaborative work will be useful to practitioners and analysts alike., No topic is more vital than how to rebuild trust in capitalism--yet none is more slippery. Adam Arvidsson and Nicolai Peitersen have done us all a huge favor by thinking it through so thoroughly and above all so realistically., No topic is more vital than how to rebuild trust in capitalism, but also none is slipperier. Arvidsson and Peitersen have done us all a huge favour by thinking it through so thoroughly and above all realistically., Our mainstream economic system has been focusing on a single type of financial capital, that no longer is capable of dealing with the multiple value streams of the emerging contributive and collaborative economy. How to measure, value, and reward contributions is a key question for solving the 'crisis of value', but unfortunately, the literature and effort on this is still extremely scarce. With one exception though, the new book by Adam Arvidsson and Nicolai Petersen squarely looks the value crisis in the face, and offers an analysis and proposals for a 'ethical economy'., In Danish we have an expression which goes like that: "Nothing is so bad that it is not good for something!" This is also the case for the present worldwide crisis. It encourages people to think ahead about other and new ways of organizing our economies. This book is a very good and stimulating example. And a very ambitious example. It presents a different way to create and distribute wealth. We all want to behave ethically today. But here it is shown how the ethical economy is not only a moral phenomenon. The authors claim that it could --and should be -- the basis for our societies in the future. It is also very interesting how they see the role of social media today and especially in the future in this process. Social media are according to them becoming an essential building stone in such an economy. I personally recommend this book and hope that it will stimulate not only positive discussions, but inspire our politicians to take the necessary decisions., No topic is more vital than how to rebuild trust in capitalism-yet none is more slippery.

Synopsis
A new, more balanced system of economic production and wealth distribution that fundamentally rethinks the definition of value., A more ethical economic system is now possible, one that rectifies the crisis spots of our current downturn while balancing the injustices of extreme poverty and wealth. Adam Arvidsson and Nicolai Peitersen, a scholar and an entrepreneur, outline the shape such an economy might take, identifying its origins in innovations already existent in our production, valuation, and distribution systems. Much like nineteenth-century entrepreneurs, philosophers, bankers, artisans, and social organizers who planned a course for modern capitalism that was more economically efficient and ethically desirable, we now have a chance to construct new instruments, institutions, and infrastructure to reverse the trajectory of a quickly deteriorating economic environment. Considering a multitude of emerging phenomena, Arvidsson and Peitersen show wealth creation can be the result of a new kind of social production, and the motivation of continuous capital accumulation can exist in tandem with a new desire to maximize our social impact. Arvidsson and Peitersen argue that financial markets could become a central arena in which diverse ethical concerns are integrated into tangible economic valuations. They suggest that such a common standard has already emerged and that this process is linked to the spread of social media, making it possible to capture the sentiment of value to most people. They ultimately recommend how to build upon these developments to initiate a radical democratization of economic systems and the value decisions they generate.
