What is agroecology? Who were Adam Smith and Karl Marx? Is "free trade" free? How much does a military cost? Where did this economic mess come from? Is a democracy a vote for who? Is land identity? What has art got to do with it? Do I care? Surprising to some, well-understood by others, many of the answers are available for both discussion and practice.

They are movements, people of dignity. This is an investigation to learn.204 pages. Approx. 60% text / 40% photographs. 203 original photographs.
