What drives a person to try to heal a broken world—and what happens when, for many years, every movement falls short? How did hope, and even joy, flower again for David Belden?
In this wise, moving, and unexpectedly humorous memoir, David Belden traces a lifelong quest to unite the personal and the political, the spiritual and the secular. Born in postwar London to parents who believed their faith-based movement—the Oxford Group, later Moral Re-Armament (MRA)—could literally "remake the world," Belden grew up surrounded by the conviction that personal transformation could end poverty, war, and hatred.
Through experiences ranging from spiritual awakening to social struggle, and from communal idealism to personal healing, The World Remakers' Child explores what it truly takes to repair the world in an age of climate crisis, inequality, and disconnection.
A memoir for listeners drawn to progressive spirituality, restorative justice, trauma healing, and social change movements, Belden's story is an inspiring call to go deep—to rediscover the courage to remake the world.
Reseñas de la crítica
"This book is a must-read for anyone who has ever wondered where Alcoholics Anonymous came from or what it's like to grow up as a child within a cult-like social movement - and to make sense of that experience after leaving it." - Alana Yu-lan Price, Journalist and editor
"His unusual life story reveals a readiness to throw himself into challenging undertakings; an eye, right from childhood, for detail; a lasting dislike of haughtiness; steady candor, tinged with humor, about himself; and a thirst for a less harsh, more loving, and fairer world." - Rajmohan Gandhi, Indian historian, academic, biographer, and grandson of Mahatma Gandhi
"This memoir is equal parts honoring and questioning the revolutionary paths Dave has walked." - sujatha baliga, Buddhist practitioner, restorative justice innovator, and 2019 MacArthur Fellow
