The Latin American World Model (a.k.a. the Bariloche model): three decades ago

摘要

Almost twenty five years ago, "catastrophe and New Society. A Latin American World Model" was published [Herrera AO et al. Catastrophe or New Society? A Latin American World Model. Canada: DRC, 1976]. It described the work of a group of Latin American Researchers, led by the late Amilcar O. Herrera, and it represented both a response to the Diagnostic and proposal embodied in World 3, the first world model sponsored by the Club Of Rome [Meadows D, et al. The Limits to Growth. New York: Universe Books, 1972], and a New proposal for the global system. It remains to date the only global model made in the south.
