Opening with a description of the shaky economic, political, and social condition in which so many countries of the developed world find themselves, this study argues that the prevailing worldview that seeks the commoditization of every aspect of life is what has brought the world to the current crisis point. Rather than promoting a shift within this framework, however, this consideration calls for a rejection of it altogether toward a system that values people and the interconnectedness between them over possessions, as well as the relationship between humans and nature. The hopeful tone of the book suggests that the current crisis needn't be a quagmire from which the world cannot extricate itself but an opportunity for effective and meaningful change. Empezando con una descripci???n de la delicada situaci???n econ???mica, pol???tica y social en que se encuentran tantos pa???ses del mundo desarrollado, este estudio argumenta que la b???squeda de la comercializaci???n de cada aspecto de vida es lo que ha conducido al mundo a este crisis. En vez de promover un cambio dentro de este marco, sin embargo, esta consideraci???n propne un rechazo hacia un sistema que valora a la gente y a la interconexi???n entre ellos, as??? como la relaci???n entre el hombre y la naturaleza. El tono optimista del libro sugiere que la crisis actual no necesita ser obst???culo del que el mundo no se pueda liberar, sino m???s bien una oportunidad para un cambio efectivo y significativo.
