Reviews
"Reading Kuni makes me want to dive into rural Japan. Heartbreaking in many ways, this book reminds me that leaders emerge when and where you least expect it." --ALICE WATERS, founder of Chez Panisse restaurant, activist, and author "Mr. Tsuyoshi Sekihara is not a scholar. But in a different era, he would have been.... If society understands the value of his work, it will be a sign that it has become a little better." --KUMI SEIKE, professor at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University "We need more kuni--healing and bridging between people divided by geography. From Japan to the Americas, forgotten rural communities desperately need new paths to forge a future." --RICARDO SALVADOR, senior scientist and director of the Food and Environment Program at the Union of Concerned Scientists "What are the universal values common to all humanity? In a kuni--a place full of vitality and where humans have pride and free will--individuals continually engage in courageous practice and never cease to question their work. In Tsuyoshi Sekihara's new theory of kuni, we find signs of light that will help us survive in this difficult time." --TAKAO AOKI, board chair of KODO Group/ Kitamaesen Co., Ltd. "This is a much-needed and hugely attractive idea--or set of ideas--for overcoming the rural/urban divide, which sadly does exist and usually breeds a lack of understanding that goes both ways." --DEBORAH MADISON, cookbook author and chef "I am immensely proud of Kuni . This book is the outcome of a multi-year US-Japan rural exchange program and is a testament to how exchange programs can positively impact international dialogue and understanding and help innovative leaders see their work in new, illuminating, and fresh ways. Kudos to Richard McCarthy and Tsuyoshi Sekihara, who generously wrote this book so that others working on the rural-urban divide can benefit from their expertise and experience." --AMBASSADOR MOTOATSU SAKURAI, president emeritus of Japan Society, Inc. "This remarkable East meets West manifesto for the best of an enlightened globalization may bring us all back to where we should be: home. Sekihara and McCarthy urge us to return home, to defend fragile rural places that our criminal food system plunders. Best read over rice dishes." --CARLO PETRINI, founder of Slow Food "In Kuni , we witness how valuable community-level exchanges between the United States and Japan can be to facilitate sharing of lessons learned and best practices on common challenges facing our two countries. As two innovative leaders of their respective societies, McCarthy and Sekihara not only help shed light on a key issue of concern shared by the United States and Japan, but also encourage us all that important ideas and experiences are being shared between the two countries to strengthen urban-rural ties and help rural communities thrive. Their collaboration is an exceptional manifestation of sub-national exchanges that form a strong foundation for an enduring US-Japan relationship, and will also be a significant resource for rural revitalization efforts in communities around the world." --KAZUYO KATO, executive director of Japan Center for International Exchange (JCIE/USA) "Richard McCarthy is one the most playful and ground-breaking thought leaders in the Americas." --GARY NABHAN, ethnobotanist and author

Synopsis
"Reading Kuni makes me want to dive into rural Japan...this book reminds me that leaders emerge when and where you least expect it." - ALICE WATERS, founder of Chez Panisse restaurant, activist, and author A guide to reviving and revitalizing forgotten places and communities through the Japanese principles of kuni Kuni offers a unique model for the revitalization of rural and deindustrialized lands and communities--and shares lessons in citizen-led regeneration for all of us, regardless of where we live. "Kuni" is both a reimagining of the Japanese word for nation and an approach to reviving communities. It shows what happens when dedicated people band together and invest their hearts, minds, and souls back into a community, modeling a new way of living that actually works . A kuni can be created anywhere--even a hamlet on the verge of extinction--and embodies 7 key principles- Everyone is equal in a kuni Kuni is equipped with a Regional Management Organization--a democratic organization that takes care of small public services Kuni is a link between residents and repeat visitors Life in a kuni is circular--consumption and production are in balance Kuni embraces the whole person Kuni can be a place for young people who seek interconnectedness The time for kuni is now Kuni offers a compelling vision of regenerative relationships that can take root in the United States--and anywhere. With spare and beautiful prose and useful principles for reviving rural places, this book addresses our longing for a hopeful revolution of everyday life., "Reading Kuni makes me want to dive into rural Japan...this book reminds me that leaders emerge when and where you least expect it." -- ALICE WATERS, founder of Chez Panisse restaurant, activist, and author A guide to reviving and revitalizing forgotten places and communities through the Japanese principles of kuni Kuni offers a unique model for the revitalization of rural and deindustrialized lands and communities--and shares lessons in citizen-led regeneration for all of us, regardless of where we live. "Kuni" is both a reimagining of the Japanese word for nation and an approach to reviving communities.

A kuni can be created anywhere--even a hamlet on the verge of extinction--and embodies 7 key principles: Everyone is equal in a kuni Kuni is equipped with a Regional Management Organization--a democratic organization that takes care of small public services Kuni is a link between residents and repeat visitors Life in a kuni is circular--consumption and production are in balance Kuni embraces the whole person Kuni can be a place for young people who seek interconnectedness The time for kuni is now Kuni offers a compelling vision of regenerative relationships that can take root in the United States--and anywhere. With spare and beautiful prose and useful principles for reviving rural places, this book addresses our longing for a hopeful revolution of everyday life., Kuni is the story of an extraordinary experiment in citizen-led regeneration, and the lessons it holds for reviving rural and deindustrialized lands and communities around the globe, Kuni reimagines the Japanese word for "the nation" to mean a new sense of purpose and belonging in politically and geographically isolated places. A kuni is a community that achieves a balance between belonging and freedom. It can be created anywhere-even within a hamlet on the verge of extinction-and involves taking a holistic approach to helping fragile places thrive by reviving fading traditions, delivering social services, and forging new social contracts with those gripped by the stress of city life. More than a book of theories about how we might deconstruct modern industrial life, Kuni builds upon two decades of practice in rural Japan. It explores how to help people left behind in a globalized economy, sharing ideas deeply relevant to struggling communities outside of Japan, from Wilmington, Ohio, and their loss of a major shipping employer to Petal, Mississippi, and their loss of agricultural infrastructure. With spare and beautiful prose and useful principles for reviving rural places, Kuni addresses our longing for a hopeful revolution of community and everyday life. Book jacket.

It still had the Cambridge warranty card, and the ribbons were still tucked from the factory. It is an excellent Bible in excellent condition, and at a great price too. It was not packaged very well, simply slipped into a plastic shipping bag and sealed (no other protection) but it did arrive undamaged. Shipping was super fast. However, there were initials imprinted on the cover, not mentioned in the listing. Otherwise, perfect!
