Corporate globalism is viewed by many as an unstoppable juggernaut. But how can an economic system that makes the world more vulnerable to environmental degradation, growing inequality and poverty, and abuse of political and economic power offer us a viable future? In "Bioregionalism and Civil Society", Mike Carr outlines an alternative to the economically, environmentally, and politically unsustainable movement of globalization. He argues for the potential of bioregionalism as a place-specific, social, cultural, and community economic movement within democratic civil society that can stand in opposition to the homogenizing trends of corporate globalization. By integrating civil society theory with social and natural ecologies, Carr offers a practical approach to creating an economically, environmentally, and culturally sustainable world. "Bioregionalism and Civil Society" addresses the urgent need in industrialized societies for both theoretical and practical frameworks that promote new, sustainable methods of living. It is a valuable addition to the fields of green political science, social change theory, environmental thought, and radical planning.
