Table of Contents:

Section I : Towards a New Economics: The struggle against TINA is firstly conceptual and thus begins with challenging some of the basic assumptions of classical economics.

Section II: Market Fundamentalism

The nature and functioning of the modern market lies at the heart of the crisis precipitated by the prevailing form of globalisation.

Section III: New Money

Paper money in the bank is quated with wealth rather than tangibles like natural resources that actually sustain life.

Section IV: Going Local

Cosmopolitian Localism, which is not a cloaked parachialism, involves new approaches to evaluating real wealth creating sustainability and promoting true peace and international security.
