About the Film
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Economics of Happiness describes a world moving simultaneously in two opposing directions. On the one hand, government and big business continue to promote globalization and the consolidation of corporate power. At the same time, people around the world are resisting those policies – and, far from the old institutions of power, they’re starting to forge 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."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
- Margaret Mead
Review of the Movie:
"This is one of my TOP 10 important MUST SEE films. I would give it 10 stars, not just 5. I would dedicate an entire university specifically for delivering the wisdom in this film. If I had new friends visiting and they asked me how I am and what I am up to, I would show them The Economy of Happiness, and then we would talk, sobered, with open hearts, considering how we will spend the rest of our lives together on this utterly precious and amazing planet. Please see this film. Show it to your children and your neighbors. Show it at work. The world will look different to you afterwards, and you will have more certainty about the choices you are making in your daily life."
