Local Is Our Future: Steps to an Economics of Happiness

By Helena Norberg-Hodge

Book Overview

From a renowned pioneer of the anti-globalization movement, a primer on working towards a localized world,

From disappearing livelihoods to financial instability, from climate chaos to an epidemic of depression, we face crises on a number of seemingly unrelated fronts. This well-referenced book traces the common roots of these problems in a globalized economy that is incompatible with life on a finite planet. But Local is Our Future does more than just describe the problem: it describes the policy shifts and grassroots steps - many of them already underway around the world - that can move us towards the local and, thereby, towards a better world.
