内容説明
Paul Ekins examines the following global problems: war, insecurity and militarization; the persistence of poverty; the denial of human rights; environmental destruction. He analyzes the conventional policy approaches to these problems through a rigorous critique of the three United Nations reports of the 1980s, the Brandt, Palme and Bruntland Commissions. He also records and celebrates the achievements of the many individuals and organizations involved in policy and action at the grassroots level. Based on these achievements, he outlines the possibility of a "new world order" based on peace, justice and ecological sustainability, rather than conventional development policies. This book should be of interest to lecturers and students of peace studies, politics, geography, environmental studies, development, and to the general interest readership.

内容説明
Begins by identifying a global problematique, a coincidence of four sustained factors; war, insecurity and militarisation; the persistance of poverty, the denial of human rights; environmental destruction. The conventional policy approaches to these problems are analysed through a rigorous critique of the three United Nations reports of the 1980s. Describing the partial solutions of the Brandt, Palme and Bruntland Commissions, attention is turned to the individuals and organisations involved in policy and action at the grassroots level. Peace and security, human rights, economic development are all discussed. The author argues that if the root causes for crisis lie in Western scientism, developmentalism and the construct of the nations state, it is on the success of `alternative' work that a new world order, based on peace, human dignity and ecological sustainability, can be created.
