Economics of Happiness, The

Synopsis
THE ECONOMICS OF HAPPINESS portrays a world moving simultaneously in two opposing directions. On the one hand, government and big business continue to promote globalisation and the consolidation of corporate power whilst all around the world people are resisting those policies, and demanding a re-regulation of trade and finance. They are also starting to create a very different future. Communities are coming together to re-build more human scale, ecological economies based on a new paradigm - an economics of localisation.
