As a clearly defined economic and physical area of 5.3 million people, with a strong national identity, and a devolved parliament, Scotland is perfectly placed to create a new digital currency and payment system. Such a scheme could stimulate local economies, create a level playing field for small businesses, and support social justice for all its citizens. The question of currency loomed large in the Scottish independence referendum campaign. The fear of losing sterling was one of the decisive factors in the eventual result. But the debate lacked an informed analysis of what independence would mean for the pound, or what a new Scottish currency could look like.

  • Bristol Pound's Critique of the Economy and How It Aims to Challenge the Different Regimes That Operate in the Economy
    1_ Local Currencies: a tool for sustainability? A Transitions Perspective on the impacts of local currencies for sustainability – The case of the Bristol Pound Thiago Henrique Toste Master Thesis Series in Environmental Studies and Sustainability Science, No 2018:006 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of Lund University International Master’s Programme in Environmental Studies and Sustainability Science (30hp/credits) LUCSUS Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies Local Currencies: a tool for sustainability? A Transitions Perspective on the impacts of local currencies for sustainability – The case of the Bristol Pound Thiago Toste A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of Lund University International Master’s Programme in Environmental Studies and Sustainability Science Submitted May 15, 2018 Supervisor: Turaj Faran, LUCSUS, Lund University Abstract: This research investigates the contribution of local currencies to sustainability. I look at a specific local currency scheme (the Bristol Pound, in Bristol, United Kingdom) through a transitions perspective, employing a Transitions Evaluation Framework, Multi-Level and Multi-Phase Perspectives to conduct my analysis. I use a qualitative triangulation approach to collect data, namely semi-structured interviews in combination with participant observation and document review, and analyze this data through inductive and deductive coding. My findings reveal that the Bristol Pound’s contribution to sustainability is diffusive, that is, concerns the experiment's capacity to influence mainstream regimes. As of now, the Bristol Pound does not provide intrinsic contributions to sustainability. The currency contributes to increasing people's sense of socio-ecological stewardship and democratic governance, but does not increase resource maintenance and efficiency, intra- and intergenerational equity and livelihood sufficiency and opportunity, despite its intention.

The aim of this article is to explain the viability of this type of currency and its application in local development, in this case, in a rural mountain municipality in the province of Almería (Spain) called Almócita. The Plus, Minus, Interesting (PMI); “Flying Balloon”; and Strength, Weakness, Opportunity (SWOT) analysis methodologies will be used to carry out the study. Finally, a ranking of success factors will be carried out with a brainstorming exercise. As to the results, there are, a priori, more advantages than disadvantages of implementing these currencies, but the local population has clarified that their main concern is depopulation along with a lack of varied work. As a counterpart to this and strengths or advantages, almost all the participants mention the support from the Almócita city council and the initiatives that are constantly being promoted.

    International Journal of Community Currency Research Volume 19 (2015) Section A 1-11 THE COMMUNITY CURRENCY SCENE IN SPAIN Neil Hughes* School Of Cultures, Languages And Area Studies University Of Nottingham, UK ABSTRACT This article maps the contours of the community currency scene in Spain. In so doing, it reveals a diverse and vibrant landscape of almost 400 currencies. These are made up of both tried and tested community currency types: service time-banks and mutual credit schemes; a regional currency, the Bilbao-based ekhi and more innovative alternatives such as barter shops and loy- alty schemes. The scene is national in scope and has undergone rapid recent growth. The sources used in the study comprise scholarly books, articles published in the Spanish national and regional press, an online database, and interviews and focus groups conducted during Cield trips to Spain with academics with interests in alternative economic practices, some of Spain’s leading community currency pioneers and community currency user groups and activists. In an effort to reveal the factors shaping community currency practice in Spain, the article discusses the role of municipal councils, community currency pioneers, the recent economic downturn, pre-igurative economic experiments conducted by radical social movements and ideological frameworks such as feminism and de-growth. The article also highlights the extent to which Spanish community currencies have been inCluenced by developments in Europe, the USA and Latin America. * Email: [email protected] To cite this article: Hughes, N.

  • Iulie Aslaksen and Anne Ingeborg Myhr “The Worth of a Wildflower
    Discussion Papers No. 476, September 2006 Statistics Norway, Research Department Iulie Aslaksen and Anne Ingeborg Myhr “The worth of a wildflower” Precautionary perspectives on the environmental risk of GMOs Abstract: How much is a wildflower worth? Inspired by “The worth of a songbird” by Funtowicz and Ravetz (1994) we use the value of a wildflower as symbol of the complexity of evaluating environmental qualities and risks. We critically discuss the application of cost-benefit analysis in evaluating environmental impacts of adoption of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). We argue that cost- benefit analysis should be supplemented with other methods, such as processes for assessing uncertainty, accommodation of scientific disagreements, and integration of stakeholders’ interests and perspectives. A more inclusive perspective is to develop precautionary approaches that recognize the multidimensional nature of environmental qualities and risks, such as irreplaceability, irreversibility, uncertainty and complexity. Precautionary approaches can contribute to develop a stronger environmental responsibility within the framework of rational self-interest. Keywords: cost-benefit analysis, environmental risk, environmental value, genetically modified organisms, precautionary principle, scientific uncertainty. JEL classification: D81, Q20, Q50 Acknowledgement: This paper grew out of a bioethical nature walk, several days across the Hardangervidda national park in Norway, while discussing ethical and philosophical questions about quality in nature and technology, and environmental risk, with Robert Pirsig’s book, “Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance” as a point of reference for discussing quality. We would like to thank Silvio Funtowicz, Kamilla Kjølberg and Roger Strand, as well as all the participants, for providing this unique opportunity to reflect on our own relationship to nature and how our perception of quality is influenced by being in nature, walking in pristine wilderness, and relying on each other.
