Kohr was an important inspiration to the Green, bioregional, Fourth World, decentralist, and anarchist movements, Kohr contributed often to John Papworth's `Journal for the Fourth World', Resurgence. One of Kohr's students was economist E. F. Schumacher, another prominent influence on these movements, whose best selling book "Small Is Beautiful" took its title from one of Kohr's core principles. Similarly, his ideas inspired Kirkpatrick Sale's books "Human Scale" (1980) and "Dwellers in the Land: The Bioregional Vision" (1985). Sale arranged the first American publication of "The Breakdown of Nations" in 1978 and wrote the foreword.
