Crítica / Alternativas
E. F. Schumacher
Lo pequeño es hermoso
Apéndice de G. McRobie
"Lo pequeño es posible"

Traducido a más de treinta idiomas. Small is beautiful es un vigoroso alegato contra una sociedad distorsionada por el culto al crecimiento económico.
Su tesis es que necesitamos una profunda reorientación de los objetivos de nuestra economía y nuestra técnica para ponerlas al servicio - y a la escala - del hombre.
Inspirándose en fuentes tan diversas como las Enciclicas de los Papas, la economía budista y las obras de Mao Tse-tung, Schumacher presenta su visión del uso adecuado de los recursos humanos y naturales, la problemática del desarrollo y las formas de organización y propiedad empresarial. El dilema de la energía nuclear, la utilidad de la autonomía regional, el agudo problema del desempleo y las perspectivas del socialismo se tratan en sus páginas con un estilo persuasivo y ágil que huye del lenguaje de los especialistas para dirigirse directamente al hombre de la calle.Apéndice.

Work Description

Small Is Beautiful: A Study of Economics As If People Mattered is a collection of essays published in 1973 by German-born British economist E. F. Schumacher. The title "Small Is Beautiful" came from a principle espoused by Schumacher’s teacher Leopold Kohr (1909–1994) advancing small, appropriate technologies, policies, and polities as a superior alternative to the mainstream ethos of "bigger is better".

Overlapping environmental, social, and economic forces such as the 1973 energy crisis and popularisation of the concept of globalisation helped bring Schumacher’s Small Is Beautiful critiques of mainstream economics to a wider audience during the 1970s. In 1995 The Times Literary Supplement ranked Small Is Beautiful among the 100 most influential books published since World War II. A further edition with commentaries was published in 1999.

Excerpts

ONE OF THE MOST fateful errors of our age is the belief that "the problem of production" has been solved.
