«Otro mundo es posible si...» is Susan George's essay on international economics, published by Icaria editorial in paperback (231 pages, in Spanish).
Susan George argues that a more just world is viable if international institutions are democratized and existing resources are redirected. She proposes taxing large corporations and financial markets, forgiving the debt of impoverished countries, closing tax havens, and turning free trade into fair trade.

For readers interested in international economics, social justice, and alter-globalization movements.
Susan George was an American and French political and social scientist, activist and writer on global social justice, Third World poverty, underdevelopment and debt. She was the president of the Transnational Institute, a think-tank located in Amsterdam. She was a fierce critic of the present policies of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Bank (IBRD) and what she called their 'maldevelopment model'. She similarly criticized the structural reform policies of the Washington Consensus on Third World development. She was of U.S. birth but resided in France, and had dual citizenship since 1994.
