Description

World-renowned environmental activist and physicist Vandana Shiva calls for a thorough shift within the values that govern democracies, condemning the role that unrestricted capitalism has played within the destruction of environments and livelihoods. She explores the problems she helped bring to international attention—genetic food engineering, culture theft, and natural resource privatization—uncovering their links to the rising tide of fundamentalism, violence against women, and planetary death. Struggles at the streets of Seattle and Cancun and in homes and farms internationally have yielded a collection of principles in line with inclusion, nonviolence, reclaiming the commons, and freely sharing the earth’s resources. These ideals, which Dr. Shiva calls “Earth Democracy,” function an urgent call to peace and because the basis for a just and sustainable long run.
