dc.description.abstract | Every social system must provision basic functions if the system is to thrive. These needs may be met at the system level where they are needed or through exchange with other levels or systems. The less provisioning that takes place locally, the more dependent a system is on external systems and thus the more vulnerable the system is to disruption by others. Conventional "progress" is equated with greater exchange and interdependence among systems. From the localization and decentralist perspective, however, progress is equates with self-sufficiency at the lowest reasonable level and the minimization of exchange and interdependence. | en_US |
