Description

How can we reshape our economic system - which now transfers wealth from poor to rich, marginalises individuals, communities and cultures, damages the natural environment, and denies all sense of the sacred - so that it will meet the needs of people and the Earth in the 21st century? In this Briefing, James Robertson outlines measures for building a healthier and more equal world. He identifies key ways in which people can work together to transform the economics of food and farming, work and livelihoods, local development, travel and transport, energy, technology and international trade. - from Amzon
