About the book

"The world is in the midst of a transition to a form of global society. Factors such as economic globalization, communications technology, human mobility, cultural influence, and environmental change pull towards a unitary system, even as forces act against this connectivity. ... Unprecedented levels of wealth, technology, and institutional capacity can forge a just, peaceful, and ecologically resilient future. However, the authors argue, social polarization, geo-political conflict, and environmental degradation are threatening the long-term well-being of humanity and the planet. [This book] explores the alternative futures that could emerge from the resolution of these antagonisms."--P. [i].
