The Great Turning

The Great Turning

The Great Turning

From Empire To Earth Community

BY DAVID KORTEN

Brief Description:
Korten argues that global corporate consolidation of power is but one manifestation of what he calls "Empire" - the organization of society by hierarchies of dominance that have held sway for the past 5,000 years. Empire has always resulted in misery for the many and fortune for the few. Now it threatens the very future of humanity. The Great Turning traces the ancient roots of Empire and charts its long evolution from monarchies to the transnational institutions of the global economy.
