Convivial Futures cover

What steps are needed to make life better and more convivial? The Second Convivialist Manifesto (2020) has presented a short diagnosis of the current crises and sketches of a possible and desirable future. It has been a necessary work of theoretical synthesis, but preserving a viable world also requires passion. It is thus urgent to show what people would gain from a shift to a post-neoliberal and post-growth convivialist future. This volume includes a theoretical debate on convivialism which reflects dystopias and shows the multiple and major obstacles that convivialism will have to face. Mainly, however, the contributors to this volume create sketches of a convivial future and collect accounts of another future world which is attractive for as many as possible.

»In dieser Zusammenstellung unterschiedlicher Beiträge konkretisiert »Convivial Futures« eine politische Philosophie des relationalen guten Lebens für alle, buchstabiert diese jedoch nicht vollumfänglich aus. So bleiben genügend Ideenräume zu füllen und anschlussfähige Bezugspunkte zu identifizieren.« www.centrum3.at, 11 (2022) O-Ton: »Wir benötigen eine grundsätzlich neue Beziehung zwischen Mensch und Natur« - Sergio Costa im Gespräch bei OE1/ORF am 12.05.2022.
