课程简介

课程名称：可持续发展 - 思想与想象 课程概述：思想与想象激发人类进行伟大事业的能力，但“传统智慧”常常阻碍必要的变革。因此，实现全球可持续发展依赖于对构成我们现实感知和对激进行动信心的预理解与隐含想象的深刻理解。 课程大纲： 1. **可持续性及可持续发展的概念历史** 本模块将介绍将环境主义与发展主义结合成“可持续发展”这一概念的历史过程，以及物理星球边界与人类生计的社会限制之间相遇所带来的挑战。 2. **关于个体与社会的思想** 本模块将探讨可持续解决方案可能来源的各种思想，重点讨论基于参与的规制政治决策与多样个体消费选择的总体经济权力之间的关系，以及普世人权的理想。 3. **关于人类与自然关系的思想** 本模块聚焦于人类与自然关系的多种解读，获取自然知识的方式，以及与其他生物物种互动时相关的一些伦理考量。 4. **关于时间与变革的思想** 本模块呈现一些关于时间与变革的普遍思想，特别关注后殖民发展主义的历史、普遍无限经济增长的政治霸权，以及从线性时间到指数时间体制的假定转变。
