Sustainable Community Development in New Zealand
The greatest challenge of the future is the need to achieve viable, sustainable community development. No-one can survive successfully on their own, isolated and vulnerable. We must have sustainable community development in order to come together to live and work in harmony, for our own good, to benefit from mutual cooperation and the exchange of skills, goods and services; perhaps even more importantly, we must be able to defend ourselves: that takes teamwork, and sufficient numbers to repel a sizeable attack, wherever that might come from.
Fortress New Zealand suggests that a basic community size of around one thousand people might be about right for this purpose. There is no guarantee that the central government will organise things well enough to keep New Zealand society together as a coherent whole. In the worst case scenario, individual communities may have to make it on their own against a background of disorder and lawlessness. Sooner rather than later, each community needs to reclaim its own power from government and take its destiny into its own hands. The time to start getting organised is now!
