Engaging with contemporary issues responsibly and creatively can
become a very abstract activity. We can sometimes find ourselves
talking in terms of theories and philosophies which bear very
little resemblance to how life is actually lived and experienced.
In Thinking in the World, Jill Bennett and Mary Zournazi curate
writings and conversations with some of the most influential
thinkers in the world and ask them not just why we should engage
with the world ,but also how we might do this. Rather than simply
thinking about the world, the authors examine the ways in which we
think in and with the world. Whether it's how to be environmentally
responsible, how to think in film, or how to dance with a
non-human, the need to engage meaningfully in a lived way is at the
forefront of this collection. Thinking in the World showcases some
of the most compelling arguments for a philosophy in action.
Including wholly original, never-before-released material from
Michel Serres, Alphonso Lingis, and Mieke Bal, the different
chapters in this book constitute dialogues and approachable essays,
as well as impassioned arguments for a particular way of
approaching thinking in the world.
