Ronnie Lessem and Alexander Schieffer's Integral Green Society and
Economy series has three overarching aims. The first is to link
together two major movements of our time, one philosophical, the
other practical. The philosophical movement is towards what many
today are calling an 'integral' age, while the practical is the
'green' movement, duly aligned with that of sustainable
development. The second is to blend together elements of nature and
community, culture and spirituality, science and technology,
politics and economics, thus serving to bring about an 'integral
green' vision, albeit with a focus on business and economics. As
such, the authors transcend the limitations to sustainable
development and environmental economics, which are overly
ecological, if not also technological, in orientation, and exclude
social and cultural elements. Thirdly, this particular volume, with
Darja Piciga, focuses specifically on Slovenia, as well as on
Europe generally, drawing on the particular issues and capacities
that this country and continent represents, particularly for
sustainable development and social knowledge-based economy. The
emphasis on Slovenia arose, not only because it lies at the heart
of Europe, but because a specific movement for an Integral Green
Slovenian Society and Economy, has been co-evolved there, by the
three editors in conjunction with Slovene organisations,
communities and movements, with a view to integrating existing and
emerging knowledge resources, initiatives and practices into a
model, as an alternative to austerity, for Slovenia and other
European countries.
