Extending the Idea of Environment: New Perspectives and Tools for a new Knowledge

The volume brilliantly explores the relationships between environmental crisis and modern thought, focusing on theoretical, epistemological and political issues. Concrete cases are also presented to highlight the connections between theory and practice and therefore to open new operational and influential perspectives in this field.

A crucial work for a survival-indispensable new understanding of the environment, the knowledge about it, and ourselves beyond anthropocentric worldviews. An urgent transdisciplinary thinking challenge, with profound reflections aimed at seriously questioning and transforming the prevailing science system and knowledge production if we shall (better) deal with the socio-environmental and climate crisis.
