Author of the best selling “When Corporations Rule the World,” Korten’s new book “The Great Turning” traces the roots of Empire from monarchies to domination by transnational corporations, illuminating our current predicament and how we can take action at his historic moment for the future of our planet, our communities, and ourselves. Weaving together the great social movements of our times, Korten makes the case for a grass roots movement to build an “Earth Community,” - a life-centered, egalitarian, sustainable way of ordering human society based on democratic principles of partnership.
