Utopia in the Anthropocene takes a cross-disciplinary approach to
analyse our current world problems, identify the key resistance to
change and take the reader step by step towards a more sustainable,
equitable and rewarding world. It presents paradigm-shifting models
of economics, political decision-making, business organization and
leadership and community life. These are supported by psychological
evidence, utopian literature and inspirational changes in history.
The Anthropocene is in crisis, because human activity is changing
almost everything about life on this planet at an unparalleled
pace. Climate change, the environmental emergency, economic
inequality, threats to democracy and peace and an onslaught of new
technology: these planetwide risks can seem too big to comprehend,
let alone manage. Our reckless pursuit of infinite economic growth
on a finite planet could even take us towards a global dystopia. As
an unprecedented frenzy of change grips the world, the case for
utopia is stronger than ever. An effective change plan requires a
bold, imaginative vision, practical goals and clarity around the
psychological values necessary to bring about a transformation.
This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the
environmental humanities, sustainability studies, ecological
economics, organizational psychology, politics, utopian philosophy
and literature - and all who long for a better world.
