Bibliography

Books

  • Daly, Herman E., John B. Cobb, Jr. For the Common Good: Redirecting the Economy Toward Community, the Environment, and a Sustainable Future. Boston: Beacon Press, 1989.

"If this book were required reading for every graduate student in economics, economics could hardly avoid being much improved. Its critique of 'standard' economic doctrine is shattering. Not everyone will agree with all the answers the authors give, but the questions they raise cannot be brushed aside. This book should present a great challenge to the next generation of economists." -- Kenneth Boulding, Distinguished Professor of Economics, Emeritus, University of Colorado at Boulder

  • Korten, David C. The Post-Corporate World -- Life After Capitalism. San Francisco: Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc., 1999.

"For every reader who senses that today's disasters of inequality, the environment, and consumerist obsessions just can't go on but finds no hope from experts, David Korten describes a new economic culture in which everyone matters." -- Gloria Steinem

  • Korten, David C. When Corporations Rule the World. West Hartford, CT: Kumarian Press, Inc., 1995.

"This is a 'must read' book -- a searing indictment of an unjust international economic order, not by a wild-eyed idealistic leftwinger, but by a sober scion of the establishment with impeccable credentials. It left me devastated but also very hopeful. Something can be done to create a more just economic order." -- Archbishop Desmond M. Tutu
