New Future

'Local is Our Future' by Helena Norberg-Hodge connects the dots between our social, economic, ecological and spiritual crises, revealing how a systemic shift from global to local can address these seemingly disparate problems simultaneously. Distilling the wisdom gleaned from four decades of activism and direct experience in both the global North and South, Helena lucidly deconstructs the old narrative of 'progress' through technological advance and corporate growth, while presenting a concise and compelling case for economic localization.

"Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal." This is such a wise theory of life that we may profitably study it a few minutes. "Forgetting the things which are behind." There are some things we would like to forget.
