The 1989 edition of the Canadian directory of grassroots groups working for social and environmental alternatives.


Abstract:  The Connexions Annual is simultaneously a reference book and an introduction to the world of social and environmental alternatives. The bulk of the Annual is devoted to listings of grassroots groups. The listings are grouped under 13 main chapters including Community/Urban/Housing, Development/International, Native Peoples, Peace, and Women. There are separate listings of Alternative Periodicals and "Useful Sources of Information". The listings are thoroughly cross-indexed, by name, by geographical location, and by subject. The Annual is a useful resource for those active in working for change, as well as for those wanting to become involved. The Annual also contains a series of introductory articles surveying a wide range of social and environmental issues and possibile alternatives. These introductory articles when read together become an extended essay on the possibility of achieving meaningful social and environmental change.
