Ecological Civilization and Global Citizenship: Reflections on a Year in China with Wm. Andrew Schwartz
The path toward ecological civilization asks us to confront a basic contradiction of our time: our greatest challenges are planetary, while our dominant forms of identity and political action remain divided along national, cultural, religious, and ideological lines. Building a more just and sustainable world will require unprecedented cooperation across these boundaries, and new ways of understanding what it means to belong to a global community. Drawing on a year of living, teaching, and working in China, Andrew Schwartz reflects on global citizenship, cross-cultural encounter, and ecological civilization through the lens of process-relational thought, asking how we might cultivate forms of identity, responsibility, and cooperation adequate to our shared planetary future.
