Radical Ecological Democracy: Escaping India's globalization trap

Ashish Kothari

Development, 2009, vol. 52, issue 3, 401-409

Abstract: The global economic and ecological crises can be seen as an opportunity to fundamentally question our paths of ‘development’, and move towards ideologies, policies, and practices of ecological sustainability and social equity. India in its current globalizing form, presents a vivid picture of unsustainability. But, Ashish Kothari proposes that in its ancient and new ideologies and its myriad grassroots experiments in alternatives, it could also be the harbinger of revolutionary changes in the way humans relate to the earth and to each other.
