description: This book explores the necessity, possibility and means of creating a sustainable 21st century American society (primary emphasis) and global community (secondary emphasis). It focuses on a destructive relationship that is currently manifesting itself between our accepted ideology (a cultural construct existing beyond our normal level of awareness within the confines of the human mind) and the strategic variables of economics, environment and population. It is argued that an unsustainable imbalance exists between our accepted ideology and the strategic variables; that this imbalance is at the heart of our most pressing problems; and that this imbalance can be corrected and the desired condition of 21st century sustainability can be achieved via a political revolution underpinned by fundamental ideological change.
