Une entreprise de réfutation point par point, sous forme de questions-réponses, de l'argument selon lequel la faim dans le monde résulte d'une croissance incontrôlée de la population et d'une production agricole insuffisante. Les auteurs expliquent comment le système actuel, basé uniquement sur des critères de rentabilité, aboutit à la suralimentation des riches et à la sous-alimentation des pauvres. Comme alternative, ils suggèrent entre autres l'application du principe de l'auto-suffisance de façon à ce que les besoins des populations locales passent avant les impératifs du commerce et du profit. Un des livres les plus importants des dernières années sur le sujet.

Now more than ever, it seems, our lives and the lives of our loved ones are at risk. Our normal response is to retreat. Indeed, we may linger in secure but mindnumbing careers, safe but unfulfilling relationships, just to avoid the terror of the unknown. But what if fear were not a negative force, but a positive one? What if fear could be a source of energy and strength, an invitation to plunge forward, and not a signal to retreat? This idea is the centerpiece of [this book]. It is not fear itself that can shut us down; it is our ideas about fear. The authors offer the radical notion that fear can actually be a precious resource we can use to create the lives we want and the world we want. Sharing their own intimate journeys with fear, as well as the experiences of others, [the authors of this book] explore seven old, paralyzing ideas about fear and suggest that we can replace them with seven new, liberating notions. [The book] helps us unleash our power to walk into the unknown and create more fulfilling, authentic lives. Fear means go, not stop.-Dust jacket.

"Democracy's Edge is a rousing battle cry that we can - and must - act now. From Jefferson to Eisenhower, presidents from both parties have warned us of the danger of letting a closed, narrow group of business and government officials concentrate power over our lives. Yet today, a small and unrepresentative group of people is making vital decisions for all of us." "But this crisis is only a symptom, Frances Moore Lappe argues. It's a symptom of thin democracy, something done to us or for us, not by or with us. Such democracy is always at risk of being stolen by private interests or extremist groups, left and right."
