Description
The collapse of modern societies has already begun. Two years of research by an interdisciplinary team has led to this conclusion. The cause is believed to be the harm caused by monetary systems, which have led to the breakdown of societies and the natural world. This book describes individuals who have allowed the full pain of their predicament to liberate them into living more courageously and creatively. They demonstrate that it is possible to break together, rather than apart, in this era of collapse. Jem Bendell argues that reclaiming our freedoms is essential to soften the fall and regenerate the natural world. A key message of this book is that regenerating nature and culture together is the only way forward. It offers an ecolibertarian agenda for both politics and practical action in a broken world.
