حقَّقَت البشريةُ خلالَ السنوات المائتَين الماضية إنجازاتٍ مُبهِرةً، ولكنَّ مَفاهيمَنا عن النموِّ الاقتصادي والتقدُّم والازدهار وصَلَت الآن إلى طريقٍ مَسدود؛ فالبحارُ امتلأَت بالمُخلَّفات البلاستيكية المُتناهِية الصِّغَر، وطعامُنا امتلأ بالمبيدات الكيميائية؛ إنه طريقٌ لا رَجْعةَ منه وتَترتَّب عليه عواقبُ وَخِيمةٌ. لكن، إلى أيِّ مَدى؟ هل يُمكِننا تخيُّلُ العيشِ في عالَمٍ يَتجاوز الاستهلاكَ ويتحكم فيه رأسِ المال والمصلحةَ الذاتية وتحقيقَ أكبرِ قدْرٍ من الأرباح؟ في كتاب «العيش بطريقةٍ مختلفة» يُصبِح التاريخُ حياً، ويَدْعونا إلى اكتشافِ ماضينا من جديد، وأن نفكِّرَ بشكلٍ مختلِفٍ في المستقبَل.

Increasingly, cracks are appearing in the capacity of communities, ecosystems, and landscapes to provide the goods and services that sustain our planet's well-being. The response from most quarters has been for "more of the same" that created the situation in the first place: more control, more intensification, and greater efficiency. "Resilience thinking" offers a different way of understanding the world and a new approach to managing resources. It embraces human and natural systems as complex entities continually adapting through cycles of change.

In the midst of spiraling ecological devastation, multispecies feminist theorist Donna J. Haraway offers provocative new ways to reconfigure our relations to the earth and all its inhabitants.

Haben Sie das Gefühl, die Welt sei aus den Fugen geraten? Sie sind nicht allein - die meisten Menschen haben in den letzten Jahren einen Realitätsschock erlitten: Unser Bild der Welt hat sich oft als kollektive Illusion entpuppt. Wer hätte damit gerechnet, dass Trump die Wahl gewinnt und die Briten für den Brexit stimmen? Dass Hunderttausende nach Europa flüchten und dabei Zehntausende sterben? Dass so viele Demokratien nach rechts kippen? Dass der Klimawandel so schnell spürbar wird und über Nacht eine weltweite Klima-Jugendbewegung entsteht.

The world isn’t going to burn. It already is. The World Is on Fire is a devastating, clear-eyed walkthrough of the climate crisis as it actually exists. Not as a theory, not as a threat, but as a daily reality. JJ doesn’t waste time with doomer panic or soft-focus optimism. Instead, he tells the story straight: how we lit the fuse with coal and oil, how the corporations lied, how the system got stuck, and how the poorest people on Earth are already paying the price.

In Radically Reframing Climate Change: A Guide to Saving Ourselves, Will Hackman identifies three main obstacles to solving climate change: polarization, paralysis, and stale, ineffective messaging. He empowers readers to turn their anxiety or apathy into passion, and anger into action at the personal, community, and government levels. The climate rallying cries to “Save the Planet” no longer work in our hyper-partisan world, nor do images of polar bears on melting glaciers. The problem isn’t scientific, fact-based, or even technological. It’s political, emotional, and ideological.

This book is the first of its kind to examine the role of great powers in the international politics of climate change. It develops a novel analytical framework for studying environmental power in international relations, what counts as a great power in the environmental field, and what their special environmental responsibilities are. In doing so, the book connects International Relations (IR) debates on power inequality, great powers and great power management, with global environmental politics (GEP) scholarship.
