Creating a Post-Corporate World

The collection of lectures and publications from the Schumacher Center for a New Economics represents some of the foremost voices on a new economics.

At the end of the 20th century, public attention was focused on a deepening struggle grounded in two sharply divergent world-views and sets of values: that of corporate globalization and that of a newly emerging global movement. David Korten describes this period as a time of cultural awakening and places our present struggle in a larger context with an epic story that traces the birth of humanity from the cosmos up to the Scientific Revolution. Blending contemporary scientific knowledge with ancient religious truths, this story offers crucial insights into life’s deep secrets and creative power as well as portraying the unfolding struggle between money and life for the soul of humanity.
