Description
A new vision for managing planetary issues is presented in Children of a Modest Star. The current system of governance is challenged by the authors, who argue that it is no longer adequate to address the interconnected challenges facing the planet. Drawing on intellectual history, political philosophy, and Earth system science, Jonathan S. Blake and Nils Gilman propose a bold, original architecture for global governance - planetary subsidiarity - designed to enable the enduring habitability of the Earth for humans and non-humans alike. This book offers a clear-eyed and urgent vision for constructing a system capable of stabilizing a planet in crisis.
