Description
Our world is facing a complex crisis that requires a new way of thinking. Lorenzo Marsili argues that the decline of the nation-state has led to an increasingly impotent and nationalist politics, which he believes can be overcome by embracing a planetary vision.
This book tells the story of humanity's growing interconnectedness, from the age of empire to the climate crisis, and presents a plea for how we can step beyond our national boundaries to reclaim and liberate our world. Marsili connects with a new generation of activists and thinkers who are taking to the streets across the globe.
By exploring the intersection of philosophy, politics, theory, and activism, Marsili offers a roadmap for creating a more just and sustainable future. This is a thought-provoking book that challenges readers to think differently about our place in the world.
