Here Together Now
A Neo-Humanist Guide to Human Development
"The authors are to be commended
for this practical and engaging book. While there are many detractors to the
current world capitalist system, there are few practical step-by-step
alternatives. Sarkar's Prout is certainly one of the compelling visions
and alternatives that can pull us out of the contemporary morass. Using the
metaphors of gardening and regeneration, Dada Jitendrananda and Paul Wildman
provide us with a valuable road map of neo-humanistic futures."
Sohail Inayatullah, Professor, Tamkang University, Taiwan; University of
the Sunshine Coast, Australia. Author, Understanding Sarkar; Situating
Sarkar; and co-editor, Transcending Boundaries.
"Here Together Now is the
handbook for today’s activist. Read this book if you want to see the
world through a humanist lens and identify and work with elements
of a sustainable future that offer the basis for a new
globalisation. Whether your interest is self-improvement,
education, community development or the economic system, you’ll
be inspired by examples of ongoing progress towards all round well
being in these and other areas." Bruce Dyer, Manager
Nelson Enterprise Loan Trust, New Zealand Delegate to 2002 World
Social Forum.
"Alternative visions are crucial
at this moment in history. PROUT's co-operative model of economic democracy,
based on cardinal human values and sharing of the planet for the welfare of
everyone, deserves our serious consideration." Noam Chomsky
