In a new essay, Kavita Byrd lays out the stakes of our global future, evoking the GT scenarios:
If we look clearly, we can see three basic forces contending today in a grand global showdown, determining the direction our world will take now and in the future: one — neoliberal capitalism, in a last-gasp grab for total global control; two — rising fascism, right-wing police states and martial law worldwide; or three — a progressive turn-around for ecological renewal, social justice and true participatory democracy, a communion of people and planet, at all scales local to global.
