The dictionary of alternatives

Description

"From America to the Zapatistas, from Arcadia to the Battle for Seattle, this is a look at the history and reality of alternative ideas and organizations. All too often, ordinary people are told that the problems of organization are already solved and don't concern them because they have no choice. This dictionary provides those who disagree with evidence to the contrary." "Featuring hundreds of entries dealing with literary Utopias, historical alternatives and contemporary movements for social and political change, the book gives us a uniquely rich and imaginative snapshot of society in all its diversity, now and in the past. Part reference work, part sourcebook and pact polemic, The Dictionary of Alternatives provides a wealth of ideas for thinking about how we can live in the new century."--BOOK JACKET.
