"What
do you think
of the
Simultaneous Policy?"
|
“It’s ambitious and provocative. Can it work? Certainly worth a serious try.” -
Noam Chomsky
-
Helena Norberg-Hodge “SP offers a prophetic and practical approach to the global politico-economic problems of our generation.” -
Steve Whiting “It is a good idea. What we need is politicians who will give this issue a high priority.” -
Polly Toynbee “..the basic concept is excellent… Let me know what develops!” -
Jakob von Uexkull “I thought [SP] was an elegant idea of how change could occur. It reflects the core ideas of how to create consensus around change. This is the biggest challenge that we have.” -
Ed Mayo “…well argued and well thought out. It goes against our bias for the human scale but may be necessary.” -
Nicholas Albery “…the financial world order has become quite cancerous to both people and the planet and what is needed are intelligent and creative solutions appropriate to the situation. Your proposal to create a level playing field for all that incorporates environmentally sustainable policies is just such a solution.” -
Richard St. George “…compelling and provocative. The structure and progression of the [book] fit your argument perfectly.” -
Moises Naim “Your main theme is a crucial one and I hope it will be heeded. … your approach is unusual because most authors concentrate on ‘what’ first and leave ‘how’ as a secondary consideration – or duck it altogether.”
“Your [book] eloquently describes the crucial problems facing the world today. It explores the inadequacy of the nation state in dealing with these problems and the inability of the United Nations to move beyond its current constraints. Simultaneous Policy is an elegant theory which takes many ideas from different places. We must all work to bring these ideas from theory into practice.” -
Simon Burall, “Bunzl is, I feel, the first writer on the "sustainable society" to advance beyond rhetoric and grapple with the problem of how such a society might be achieved.” |
