Imagine—Embracing Chaos and Possibility in a Planetary Emergency

Imagine—Embracing Chaos and Possibility in a Planetary Emergency is not a non-fiction book or practical guide, but rather an interdisciplinary collection of conversations, reflections and contributions that explore life in times of global crisis—what some call a “planetary emergency.” The editors shed light on the ecological, social and cultural challenges of our time from various perspectives and aim to create up space for further reflection and solutions.This book does not offer easy answers, but invites readers to reflect on, pause and engage with the complexity of our times. It is a companion and a collection of ideas designed to inspire new relationships with ourselves, society and the planet.With contributions from experts and practitioners from a wide range of disciplines in science, art, and psychology, including Nora Bateson (systems theory), Vanessa Machado de Oliveira (education), Rudi Putra (environmental protection) and Brother Phap Linh (Buddhist practice).
