This is a stimulating collection of over a hundred essays on transformative alternatives to the currently dominant processes of globalized development, including its structural roots in modernity, capitalism, state domination, and masculinist values. The book presents worldviews and practices from around the world in a collective search for an ecologically wise and socially just world. It also offers critical essays on a number of false solutions that those in power are proposing in an attempt to "greenwash" development. Contributors to the volume, more than 120 in number, include activists, academics, and practitioners with a wealth of experience in their fields.
