But then came a tidal wave of economic growth and development. Over the last four decades, this remote Himalayan land has been transformed by outside markets and Western notions of progress. As a direct result, a whole range of problems?from polluted air and water to unemployment, religious conflict, eating disorders and youth suicide?have appeared for the first time.</p><p>Yet this is far from a story of despair. Social and environmental breakdown, Norberg-Hodge argues, are neither inevitable nor evolutionary, but the products of political and economic decisions?and those decisions can be changed. In a new Preface, she presents a kaleidoscope of projects around the world that are pointing the way for both human and ecological well-being. These initiatives are the manifestation of a rapidly growing localization movement, which works to rebuild place-based cultures?strengthening community and our connection with nature.</p><p><em>Ancient Futures</em> challenges us to redefine what a healthy economy means, and to find ways to carry centuries-old wisdom into our future. The book and a related film by the same title have, between them, been translated into more than 40 languages.</p>...7065041Ancient Futures295409https://www.gandhi.com.mx/ancient-futures-9780692864241/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7031899/image.jpg?v=638793463260970000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2017Inglés
