Integral Green Zimbabwe: An African Phoenix Rising by Ronnie
Lessem, Alexander Schieffer and Liz Mamukwa is the first book in
the Integral Green Society and Economy series, a series which has
three overarching aims. The first aim 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 focuses specifically on Zimbabwe, as well as
Southern Africa, drawing on the particular issues and capacities
that this country and region represents. The emphasis on Zimbabwe
and Southern Africa transpired not only because two of the editors
(Lessem and Mamukwa) are Zimbabwean in origin, but because Zimbabwe
is today like a phoenix rising from the ashes, and has the
opportunity to recreate itself anew.
