You say local, we say awesome!<br>
<br>
In Helena Norberg-Hodge’s recent report: “Localisation: A strategic solution to globalised authoritarianism”, commissioned by the Transnational institute, examines the profoundly personal impact of globalisation. Beginning with the Ladakh saying “We are tung-bos za-bos”, which means “we are self-sufficient, we have plenty to eat and drink”, Norberg-Hodge seeks to identify if this sentiment still applies within a globalised economy.<br>
<br>
Check out the report here: <br>
<a href="https://postgrowthalliance.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=dcc08996cc57fb1c3f5af62ec&id=f4e8a9ee86&e=604d04a371" style="word-wrap:break-word;color:#6dc6dd;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">http://longreads.tni.org/<wbr>localisation-solution-<wbr>authoritarianism/</a><br>
<br>
Norberg-Hodge proposes localisation as a solution to the three main negative consequences of globalization: job, political and psychological insecurity. By scaling down and decentralizing economic activity, giving communities and local economies the ability to meet as many of their own needs as possible, including the human need for connection, Norberg-Hodge offers an alternative to the global norm. <br>
<br>
Rebuilding stronger, diversified, self-reliant economies at the national, regional and local level is essential to restoring democracy and a real economy based on sustainable use of natural resources.<br>
