In light of impending global climate and financial crises, it is imperative to analyze models for positive social change that are focused on building community resiliency and sustainability. The Transition Movement, premised in participatory action and permaculture principles with a broad digital network, is one of the world’s leading models. This book is the first long-term case study of how the global model was applied in a local Transition town, Amherst, Massachusetts.
