"I was very pleased to learn about the PPS-UK initiative. It addresses issues of prime significance with thought and care, ranging from long-term vision to actions that can be undertaken right now, all within a framework that offers hope for constructing the elements of a much better future society within the existing one. It seems to me to be a fine and promising project."
Noam Chomsky, 2006
"As an ardent supporter of participatory economics and participatory society I am inspired and elated by the pps-uk project - its intentions, methods, and progress. Ideas are one thing. Actual organizing is another thing. And creating organization, sustaining it, and employing it, all consistently with exemplary guiding values and planting the seeds of the future in the present, is much much more. Congratulations on the efforts to date, and as both an exemplary international model and an effective organization in the UK, very best success for the coming months and years."
- Michael Albert, 2009
"Creating a better world requires direct challenges to the powerful and selfish interests that are driving us towards oblivion. But we also need to build and strengthen radical social networks and grassroot institutions that embody wisdom, compassion and justice. PPS-UK can play a valuable role here and we wish it every success.." D. Cromwell, D. Edwards - Medialens
"PPS-UK is addressing topics of enormous importance, in a way that challenges all British social movements and left/alternative institutions. I'm very happy to support PPS-UK in its activities, and to be encouraged to deal with the challenges that it raises." - Milan Rai
