Towards a Just and Ecologically Sustainable Peace: Navigating the Great Transition

Editat de Joseph Camilleri, Deborah Guess
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 aug 2021
This book addresses the need to develop a holistic approach to countering violence that integrates notions of peace, justice and care of the Earth. It is unique in that it does not stop with the move toward articulating ‘Just Peace’ as a human concern but probes the mindset needed for the shift to a ‘Just and Ecologically Sustainable Peace’. It explores the values and principles that can guide this shift, theoretically and in practice. 

International in scope and grounded in the reality of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australia and the wider Asia-Pacific context, the book brings together important insights drawn from the Indigenous relationship to land, ecological feminism, ecological philosophy, the social sciences more generally, and a range of religious and non-religious cosmologies. 

Drawn from diverse disciplinary backgrounds, the contributors in this book apply their combined professional expertise and active engagement to illuminate the difficult choices that lie ahead.

Recenzii

“It takes us on a journey into new perspectives and offers us hope of a way through the crisis we and the earth face. … The good news is that most presenters write in elegant English to make their message accessible to the general reader. … it is a book to be seen as an investment, a point of reference for the long haul.” (Disarming Times, Vol. 45 (4), December, 2020)
