Description:
In "Direct," Kathryn Judge, a finance expert and law professor, explores the rise of middlemen in the economy and their impact on our lives. Over the past three decades, middlemen have become essential players in moving goods, services, and information across the world. They have created intricate financial and retail networks that provide us with convenience and choice but also come with significant costs.
Judge delves into how these middlemen have shaped various aspects of our lives, from influencing our consumption patterns to using their wealth and influence to lobby for favorable policies. Drawing on a decade of research, she argues that there is a way to regain control and contribute to a more sustainable economy: by going to the source.
Direct exchange, as she explains, fosters a sense of connection and community and encourages a more just, resilient, and accountable economic system. By engaging in direct exchange, individuals can have a deeper appreciation of their interconnectedness and make more informed decisions about how and from whom they buy, invest, and give.
This book provides practical guidance for navigating the middleman-dominated economy and offers insights into how individuals can make choices that align with their values and contribute to positive economic change.
