In conclusion
Nadia Johanisova’ s book “Living in the Cracks” talks
about economic alternatives to the communist and
capitalist systems and identifies social enterprise as:
“the only sound basis for a truly sustainable
economy".

Nadia comments that: "Businesses which are well-rooted in their communities

and offer an ecologically sound service...are not part of the new economy if
their staff are underpaid and their owners make profits at the expense of
workers”.
