The Village Against the World keyword-localism Even in marginal and radicalOne hundred kilometres from Seville lies the small village of Marinaleda, which for the last thirty five years has been the centre of a tireless struggle to create a living utopia. This unique community drew British author Dan Hancox to Spain, and here for the first time he recounts the fascinating story of villagers who expropriated the land owned by wealthy aristocrats and have, since the 1980s, made it the foundation of a cooperative way of life.
