商品描述
This book lies at the intersection of environmental humanities and decision theory, political philosophy and science, and psychology and biology. Its storyline emerges from the perspective of biological evolution. It is hopeful yet realistic, guided by Al Gore's refrain that "we must not leap from denial to despair. We can do something and we must". It will contribute by: (i) contextualising global sustainability within the introduced open epistemic democracy framework; (ii) proposing a comprehensive conceptual decision-making model; (iii) highlighting the importance and basic means of individual and group attention-taking; (iv) promoting the democratisation of philosophy and thoughtful action; and (v) recommending a specific cluster of citizen and experts' techniques in aid of Earth's sustainability. In sum, it seeks to elucidate the basic social conditions for wisdom-making and its decision-taking to renew a reverence for all life on Earth.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書位於環境人文學與決策理論、政治哲學與科學，以及心理學與生物學的交匯處。其故事情節從生物演化的角度出發。它充滿希望卻又現實，受到阿爾·戈爾（Al Gore）所言「我們不能從否認跳到絕望。我們可以做些什麼，並且必須這樣做」的指引。這本書的貢獻包括：(i) 在所引入的開放認識論民主框架中，為全球可持續性提供背景；(ii) 提出一個全面的概念決策模型；(iii) 強調個人和團體注意力的重要性及基本手段；(iv) 促進哲學的民主化和深思熟慮的行動；以及 (v) 建議一組特定的公民和專家技術，以協助地球的可持續性。總之，它旨在闡明智慧形成及其決策的基本社會條件，以重建對地球上所有生命的敬畏。
作者簡介
Dr. Epaminondas Bellos has been a civil servant for most of his professional life. This background has fostered in him a keen interest in the interplay between energy security and energy transition as one of the key mechanisms necessary for the larger transition towards sustainability. Political processes will inevitably play a role, in particular modes of collective decision-making as the principal precursors to final decision-taking, but these aspects have been largely neglected in the current solution space. He seeks to narrow these gaps by way of Sustainability Thinking explaining that it is a part of our evolutionary trajectory involving a blend of divergent and convergent thinking that is in need of both public participation and expert techniques. Dr. Bellos also maintains an active curiosity about how ethics and philosophy can contribute to a renewed reverence for all life that can underpin sustainability and embed it in national constitutions as a human right. He intends to pursue all these interests primarily by research, teaching, writing, and public speaking.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
埃帕米農達斯·貝洛斯博士在其職業生涯的大部分時間裡都是一名公務員。這樣的背景使他對能源安全與能源轉型之間的相互作用產生了濃厚的興趣，因為這是實現可持續性更大轉型所需的關鍵機制之一。政治過程不可避免地會發揮作用，特別是集體決策的模式作為最終決策的主要前驅，但這些方面在當前的解決方案中大多被忽視。他希望通過可持續性思維來縮小這些差距，並解釋這是我們進化軌跡的一部分，涉及到多元與收斂思維的融合，這需要公眾參與和專家技術的支持。貝洛斯博士對倫理學和哲學如何促進對所有生命的重新尊重，進而支持可持續性並將其嵌入國家憲法作為人權，保持著積極的好奇心。他打算主要通過研究、教學、寫作和公共演講來追求這些興趣。
