The duo was responsible for creating ANBA in 2003, at the behest of the <strong>Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong>, and currently runs content provider Hipermeios Ag&ecirc;ncia de Conte&uacute;dos.<\/p>\n<p>Solidarity economy, according to the blog&rsquo;s creators, is the &ldquo;counterculture for capitalism.&rdquo; &ldquo;The object is to show the workings and organization of initiatives that relate to the so-called solidarity economy: ventures that focus on camaraderie, self-management, association, group work, cooperative work, and locally-oriented, sustainable development,&rdquo; said Quental.<\/p>\n<p>The framework, according to the authors, is a &ldquo;boss-free, fraternal, egalitarian economy.&rdquo; In other words, says Quental, it&rsquo;s all about alternative practices for developing small-scale collective enterprises. In Brazil, 2,300 million people make a living out of these outfits, according to data from the National Secretariat for Solidarity Economy of the Brazilian Ministry of Labour (Senaes\/MT), and they spur economic growth in dozens of municipalities. <\/p>\n<p>Solidarity economy is applied to a bevy of areas, such as handicraft, textile, food, waste management and recycling, financial activities, forest products, fisheries, and family farming. <\/p>\n<p>The website&rsquo;s founders argue that although the number of enterprises following this template has grown by 124% from 2005 to 2012, information to the general public on the subject is scarce. Hence the idea for the blog, which the authors say will eventually give way to a namesake News Agency on Solidarity Economy and Responsible Consumption in the medium-term.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Through articles, news reports, debates and short updates, always focusing on workers as the subjects of action, Solidare intends to show Brazilians that a different economy is possible. And it has a name: solidarity economy, the most viable alternative to capitalism,&rdquo; said Guimar&atilde;es. He adds that the federal government and important sectors of Brazilian society regard the template as a &ldquo;way out&rdquo; of programs like the <em>Bolsa Fam&iacute;lia<\/em> government income transfer scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Check it out!<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Journalists Paula Quental and Joel Santos Guimar\u00e3es are set to begin publishing this Friday on their new solidarity economy-oriented blog Solidare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-50424","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-economy"},"wps_subtitle":"Journalists Paula Quental and Joel Santos Guimar\u00e3es are set to begin publishing this Friday on their new solidarity economy-oriented blog Solidare.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50424","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50424"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50424\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50424"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50424"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50424"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
