It will be interesting to compare what Hamilton says with Homer-Dixon's thesis. Missagh, many thanks for the reading suggestions.

I think you may also enjoy reading Clive Hamilton's 'Growth Fettish' and 'Affluenza'. He is looking at Australian society but it's much of a muchness really, and he covers similar themes to Homer-Dixon, which I will now look up!

The transition from a growth-based life to a resilience-based life will not be comfortable. Take it easy? Chance would be fine thing!
