The age of consent / George Monbiot

Public ISBD Titre : The age of consent : a manifesto for a new world order / Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : George Monbiot Editeur : London : Flamingo Année de publication : 2003 Importance : 274 p. Format : 22 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-00-715042-7 Mots-clés : consent Index. décimale : 909.83 2000 Résumé : Naomi Klein's ‘No Logo’ told us what was wrong. Now, George Monbiot shows us how to put it right. Provocative, brave and beautifully argued, ‘The Age of Consent’ is nothing less than a manifesto for a new world order. ‘Our task is not to overthrow globalisation, but to capture it, and to use it as a vehicle for humanity's first global democratic revolution.’ All over our planet, the rich get richer while the poor are overtaken by debt and disaster. The world is run not by its people but by a handful of unelected or underelected executives who make the decisions on which everyone else depends: concerning war, peace, debt, development and the balance of trade. Without democracy at the global level, the rest of us are left with no means of influencing these men but to shout abuse and hurl ourselves at the lines of police defending their gatherings and decisions. Does it have to be this way? George Monbiot knows not only that things ought to change, but also that they can change. Drawing on decades of thinking about how the world is organized and administered politically, fiscally and commercially, Monbiot has developed an interlocking set of proposals all his own, which attempts nothing less than a revolution in the way the world is run. If these proposals become popular, never again will people be able to ask of the critics of the existing world order, ‘we know what they don't want, but what do they want?’ Fiercely controversial and yet utterly persuasive, the ingenious solutions Monbiot suggests for some of the planet's most pressing problems mark him as perhaps the most realistic utopian of our time and a man whose passion is infectious and whose ideas, many will surely come to agree, are becoming irresistible The age of consent : a manifesto for a new world order / [texte imprimé] / George Monbiot . - London : Flamingo, 2003 . - 274 p. ; 22 cm.

Coupling / Wendy Perriam

Public ISBD Titre : Coupling Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Wendy Perriam Editeur : London : Flamingo Année de publication : 1996 Importance : 436 p. Format : 25 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-00-225466-3 Mots-clés : fiction Résumé : It was all such a dreadful muddle. How could she sleep with Max, fantasise about Tony (and other men as well), yet also want Elizabeth, want her more than anyone?' Beattie's lover Max has given her a very special birthday present - a weekend away at England's most exclusive health farm. But if he had known what was to happen there, he would have bought her a diamond instead. For thirty-year-old Beattie, who has always fancied men, suddenly finds herself attracted to a woman - a woman twenty years older, cultured, privileged, a mother of four, a grandmother, even. Her initial infatuation erupts into a passion which threatens to take over her life as, desperately, she seeks admission into Elizabeth's inner sanctum - her work as a psychotherapist, her family, her very soul. Beattie's long-standing ambition to establish herself as a journalist now becomes part of her obsession: if she can make her name, she will be more worthy of Elizabeth, more an equal partner. Max's high status in the newspaper world means he can provide valuable help and contacts, but he strongly disapproves of 'bloody shrinks' and of Elizabeth in particular. The bizarre three-cornered relationship becomes increasingly explosive when Elizabeth falls in love with a man from her distant past, and the rejected Beattie reacts with murderous rage. Wendy Perriam's genius at putting ordinary people into extraordinary situations is seen to brilliant effect in this intriguing story of obsession, sexual confusion and, ultimately, redemption, as Beattie moves beyond jealousy to forgiveness and self-fulfilment.
