From a renowned pioneer of the localization movement, an anthology
of essays challenging the narrative that technological progress and
an increasingly globalized economy will lead us to a better world
This collection of essays has been selected from 30 years of
published articles, book chapters and blog posts by the staff of
Local Futures, internationally known as pioneers of the emerging
localization movement. Some of these writings involve a fundamental
rethinking of our most basic assumptions—about progress, poverty,
and happiness—while others seek the root causes of our multiple
crises, from climate change and income inequality to the erosion of
democracy and the rise of authoritarianism. All of them point
towards the most strategic steps we can take to confront these
problems and bring a healthier, happier world into being. Several
of these prescient essays were written decades ago, but they have
become even more relevant today as our crises deepen, and the need
for systemic change becomes more apparent.
