Beyond Economics and Ecology: The Radical Thought of Ivan Illich
Jerry Brown Autor Ivan Illich Editat de Sajay Samuelen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 sep 2013
Illich’s theories on the effectiveness of cars, air travel, and energy showed that industrial progress actually hampers the speed and effectiveness we have as people who were born capable of walking to our desired destinations. Roads, airports, stations, traffic jams, all take away the benefits of using complicated engineered methods of travel, and make our actual travel times longer.
