Solidarity Economy

A portrait of El Espinal, a small forgotten town in the mountains of the Totonacapan in the northern part of the State of Veracruz in Mexico, where the residents decided to create their own economic system by printing a community currency called Túmin. This coin is based on the exchange system, initiating in this way an autonomous project, separate from the government, and one that runs counter to the capitalist system.
