Earth Democracy

Review by: Kayakreader

Shiva sets the background for her proposal for earth democracy by defining living economies, living cultures, and living democracies. She makes her points through examples from around the globe with the majority being from her own country of India. The premise is that a balance of using earth's resources in regionally unique ways that are time-homored and life enabling. Shiva disusses each of these living elements in an intelligent and compassionate manner and opened my eyes to the devastation of farmers through the partnership of big business and government.
