A revised edition of To Empower People (1977) which was virtually a pamphlet of 45 pages. Here it is supplemented with 11 new essays illustrating how the ideas it contained have spread, rooted, and branched during the past 20 years. The heart of the authors' argument is that such structures as family, neighborhood, church, voluntary associations, and civic organizations are crucial instituions, whose weakening spells disaster.
