:''For the album by Sara Bareilles, see The Blessed Unrest. For other senses see Blessed Unrest (disambiguation).'' ''Blessed Unrest: How the Largest Movement in the World Came into Being and Why No One Saw It Coming'' is a 2007 ''New York Times'' bestseller〔 by Paul Hawken.〔Paul Hawken (2007). ''Blessed Unrest: How the Largest Movement in the World Came into Being and Why No One Saw It Coming''. Viking Press. ISBN 978-0-670-03852-7〕 The book is about the many non-profit groups and community organizations, dedicated to many different causes, which Hawken calls the “environmental and social justice movement”.〔James M. Sheehan. (Blessed unrest: how the largest movement in the world came into being and why no one saw it coming (book review) ) ''The Electronic Journal of Sustainable Development'', (2008) 1(2), p. 56.〕 Hawken explains that this is a diverse movement with no charismatic leader. The movement follows no unifying ideology, and is not recognized by politicians, the public and the media. But, Hawken argues, it has the potential to benefit the planet.〔(Healing by the community spirit ) ''ECOS'', Oct-Nov 2008, pp. 145-146.〕 A ''New York Times'' reviewer states that ''Blessed Unrest'' is "about a movement that no one has noticed, not even the people involved". For this reviewer, the "high point of the book is Hawken’s excellent critique of the chemical industry’s attack on Rachel Carson’s ''Silent Spring'' in 1962", at a time when she was fighting cancer.〔Robert Sullivan. (Grass Roots Rising ) ''The New York Times'', August 5, 2007.〕 Hawken also tells the stories of other people who have endured hardship and difficulty as they stood up to large corporations.〔 ==See also== * Wiser.org * The Starfish and the Spider * Leaderless resistance * Unorganisation 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blessed Unrest」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
