Our world is in peril. The practices and worldviews of modern civilization have led us to the brink of civilizational collapse. What hope can there be in the midst of such crisis? For many, it is the vision of an ecological civilization. This vision has gained prominence in China, where the search for a post-modern way of sustainable living has brought many in conversation with the Constructive Postmodern Organic Philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead. This course is an intensive introduction to process-relational philosophy and its relevance for ecological civilization; by way of engagement with Pope Francis’ call to “integral ecology” in his encyclical (Laudato Si’) and John Cobb’s call to “ecological civilization” as demonstrated in the multi-author volume For Our Common Home: Process-Relational Responses to Laudato Si’.
