Book Description
'Ladakh is an unfinished story of a region and a people. Its beginnings are a mosaic of histories, the growing up a geopolitical narrative, and its present an inchoate reality. The political, military, and geostrategic positioning notwithstanding, Ladakh is a magnificence that beckons simple understanding. It is interesting to see how as an erstwhile feeder route on the trade between the lands of Punjab, Himachal, Kashmir, and Central Asian market hubs of Khotan and Kashgar, this little wedge of a land between two critical borders continues to be a shadow exchange route. As the southwestern edge of a Tibetan empire that converted to Buddhism to define its statehood, it is fascinating to trace processes that made the people of La-dwags sovereign, protectorate, independent, and dependent in aspects of their religion, language, and traditions at different times after that empire disintegrated, and the Now of all this. Questioning Ladakh is more than just an academic exercise. It is an intriguing narrative of the making of a land and its people on the high crossroads of nationalism, religiosity, and economy.

Ancient Futures
Author: Helena Norberg-Hodge
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780692530627
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A moving portrait of tradition and change in Ladakh, or "Little Tibet," Ancient Futures is also a scathing critique of the global economy and a rallying call for economic localization. When Helena Norberg-Hodge first visited Ladakh in 1975, she found a pristine environment, a self-reliant economy and a people who exhibited a remarkable joie de vivre. But then came a tidal wave of economic growth and development. Over the last four decades, this remote Himalayan land has been transformed by outside markets and Western notions of "progress." As a direct result, a whole range of problems--from polluted air and water to unemployment, religious conflict, eating disorders and youth suicide--have appeared for the first time. Yet this is far from a story of despair. Social and environmental breakdown, Norberg-Hodge argues, are neither inevitable nor evolutionary, but the products of political and economic decisions--and those decisions can be changed. In a new Preface, she presents a kaleidoscope of projects around the world that are pointing the way for both human and ecological well-being. These initiatives are the manifestation of a rapidly growing localization movement, which works to rebuild place-based cultures--strengthening community and our connection with nature. Ancient Futures challenges us to redefine what a healthy economy means, and to find ways to carry centuries-old wisdom into our future. The book and a related film by the same title have, between them, been translated into more than 40 languages.
