More about the book
The book explores the philosophical crisis stemming from unsustainable global trends, echoing the warnings of the Club of Rome in "Limits to Growth." It argues for a "new enlightenment" that transcends traditional doctrines, advocating for a balanced relationship between humanity and nature, markets and the state, and short-term versus long-term considerations. To achieve this, it emphasizes the need to abandon siloed thinking in favor of a systemic approach that redefines the organization of science and education for a more sustainable future.
