Rendering the actually existing sharing economy visible: social networks, non-market exchanges and mutual help in Central and Eastern Europe
Original language description
In the last quarter-century, Central and East European societies have experienced some of the most profound instances of economic neoliberalisation. While the processes of marketisation and privatisation were initially externally driven by international institutions, domestically the market also enjoyed an elevated symbolic status as part of ‘civilising mechanisms‘ destroyed under socialism. With the focus of much of the post-socialist scholarship on the process of ‘transition’ to the market economy, it has been largely overlooked that Central and East European societies harbour localised, informal and nonmarket practices such as mutual help, household food production and surplus distribution that defy the dominant neo-liberal trends. This paper argues that despite their outward appearance as manifestations of an individualised agency and responsibilisation, these practices constitute an alternative, sharing economy.
