The Late Dr. David Fleming – Community, Place and Play.

Wednesday, 12 October, 2016 - 20:00 to 22:00. With Rob Hopkins and Shaun Chamberlin. Already a key influence on the Transition movement, Green Party, New Economics Foundation and Soil Association, Fleming’s legacy is only set to grow with the posthumous publication of his astonishing masterpiece, Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It (link is external). Building on the tradition of E.F. Schumacher, his entertaining vision of a post-growth economy built on the play, humour, rootedness and reciprocal obligations of a rich culture has long inspired optimism and action. Rob and Shaun will share insights and anecdotes on his life, influence and enduring importance. We will also hear from the man himself, through recently unearthed recordings. Books will be available on the night. This is the full audio of the evening.
