A World in Transition, Humankind and Nature is appropriately
entitled after its aim for an intrinsic property of reality:
change. Of major concern, in this era of transformation, is the
extensive and profound interaction of humankind with nature. The
global-scale social and technological project of humankind
definitely involves a myriad of changes of the ecosphere. This book
develops, from the call for an interdisciplinary synthesis and
respect of plurality, acknowledging the evolving scientific truth,
to the need for an integrated but inevitably provisional worldview.
Contributors from different parts of the world focus on four modes
of change: (i) Social change and the individual condition, (ii)
Complex evolution and fundamental emergent transformations, (iii)
Ecological transformation and responsibility inquiries, (iv) The
economic-ecological and socio-technical equilibria. Primarily
concerned with the deep transformations of humankind and of the
relationship between humans and nature, it is addressed to a broad
and thinking public that wants to be kept informed.
