Description

This collection has been selected from the many articles and essays written by Helena Norberg-Hodge, an internationally recognized pioneer of the New Economy movement, along with key writings from her colleagues in Local Futures. Some ask us to rethink our most basic assumptions about progress, poverty, and happiness, while others point out the root causes of our multiple crises - from climate change and income inequality to terrorism and right-wing authoritarianism. All point towards the most strategic steps we can take to address those crises and bring about a healthier, happier world. These writings are becoming more relevant every day as our crises deepen and the need for systemic change becomes more apparent. Book jacket.
