QUOTES

"Small is beautiful."

"A small-state world would not only solve the problems of social brutality and war; it would solve the problems of oppression and tyranny. It would solve all problems arising from power."

"So let us solve the great problem of our time, the disease of excessive size and uncontrollable proportions, by going back to the alternative to both right and left - that is, to a small-scale social environment with all its potential for blobal pluralistic cooperation and largely unaffiliated self-sufficiency, by extending not centralised contrul but by decontrolling locally centred and nourished communities, each with its own institutional nucleaus and a limited but strong and independent gravitational field."
