Beyond central planning and capitalism there is a wide network of councils, in which producers and consumers negotiate and make decisions about goods and commodities in a participatory manner." An important contribution to the discussion about another world of tomorrow.

| Unlike as in the planned economy of the real socialism, plans in the modell of the participatory economics are not drawn up by a certain group of people, who stand above the population as an elite, but by the population itself: the workers and consumers plan their activities in a cooperative process of negotiation. |

Kongress Solidarische Ökonomie
SolidarischeÖkonomie im globalisierten Kapitalismus. Kongress vom 24. bis 26. November an der TU Berlin
Institut für Gesellschaftswissenschaften und historisch-politische Bildung an der Fak.I der TU Berlin
Im globalisierten Kapitalismus werden immer mehr Lebensbereiche der Profitmaximierung unterworfen. Die Kluft zwischen Arm und Reich wird immer größer. Es ist an der Zeit, offensiv eine andere Ökonomie auszubauen, die auf sozialen,
ökologischen und demokratischen Werten basiert, eine Ökonomie, die darauf ausgerichtet ist, sinnvolle Produkte und Leistungen zu erstellen, unter menschenwürdigen, persönlichkeitsförderlichen, demokratischen und geschlechtergerechten Arbeitsbedingungen und unter Schonung der natürlichen Lebensgrundlagen. Eine solche Solidarische Ökonomie sehen wir als Teil unserer Suche nach einer anderen Welt.

Michael Albert nennt ParEcon "ein ökonomisches System dessen Ziel es ist, funktionierende Produktions- und Verteilungsbedingungen, die im Einklang stehen mit ethischen Leitlinien wie Gerechtigkeit, Vielfalt, Solidarität und Selbstorganisation... Im Mittelpunkt von Parecon steht die Komitee-Idee, auf der Arbeitsplatz- und Verbraucher-Ebene" sowie "(neue) Normen und Methoden zur selbstorganisierten Entscheidungsfindung, ... partizipative Planung und die Idee ausgeglichener Arbeitsabläufe ('job complexes')."
