Visionary George Monbiot's road map for a global democratic
revolution.
George Monbiot is known to millions for his newspaper commentaries,
which are widely circulated on the Internet. Monbiot's "Manifesto
for a New World Order" offers a plan for transforming the world
into a decent place for all. All over the planet, the rich get
richer while the poor are overtaken by debt and disaster. The world
is run by a handful of executives who make the most important of
decisions, concerning war, peace, debt, development, and the
balance of trade. Without democracy at the global level, the rest
of us are left in the dark. George Monbiot shows us how to turn on
the light.
Emphasizing not only that things ought to change but also revealing
how to change them, Monbiot develops an interlocking set of
proposals that mark him as the most realistic utopian of our time.
With detailed discussions of what a world parliament might look
like, how trade can be organized fairly, and how underdeveloped
nations can leverage their debt to obtain real change, "Manifesto
for a New World Order" offers a truly global perspective, a defense
of democracy, and an understanding of power and how it might be
captured from those unfit to retain it.
