Impeccably researched and masterfully written, this book explains how and why humanity is driving itself off the cliff. — Dahr Jamail, author, The End of Ice Weaving together findings from a wide range of disciplines, Power traces how four key elements developed to give humans extraordinary power: tool making ability, language, social complexity, and the ability to harness energy sources ― most significantly, fossil fuels. It asks whether we have, at this point, overpowered natural and social systems, and if we have, what we can do about it. Has Homo sapiens — one species among millions — become powerful enough to threaten a mass extinction and disrupt the Earth's climate? Why have we developed so many ways of oppressing one another? Can we change our relationship with power to avert ecological catastrophe, reduce social inequality, and stave off collapse? These questions — and their answers — will determine our fate.

The Global Theological Ethics book series focuses on works that feature authors from around the world, draw on resources from the traditions of Catholic theological ethics, and attend to concrete issues facing the world today. It advances the Journal of Moral Theology's mission of fostering scholarship deeply rooted in traditions of inquiry about the moral life, engaged with contemporary issues, and exploring the interface of Catholic moral theology, philosophy, economics, political philosophy, psychology, and more. This series is sponsored in conjunction with the Catholic Theological Ethics and the World Church. The CTEWC recognizes the need to dialogue from and beyond local cultures and to interconnect within a world church. Its global network of scholars, practitioners, and activists fosters cross-cultural, interdisciplinary conversations--via conferences, symposia, and colloquia, both in-person and virtually--about critical issues in theological ethics, shaped by shared visions of hope.

David Hurst has a unique knowledge of organizationsÑtheir function and their failureÑboth in theory and in practice. He has spent twenty-five years as an operating manager, often in crises and turnaround conditions, and is also a widely experienced consultant, teacher, and writer on business. This book is his innovative integration of management practice and theory, using a systems perspective and analogies drawn from nature to illustrate groundbreaking ideas and their practical application. It is designed for readers unfamiliar with sophisticated management concepts and for active practitioners seeking to advance their management and leadership skills. HurstÕs objective is to help readers make meaning from their own management experience and education, and to encourage improvement in their practical judgment and wisdom. His approach takes an expansive view of organizations, connecting their development to humankindÕs evolutionary heritage and cultural history. It locates the origins of organizations in communities of trust and follows their development and maturation. He also crucially tracks the decline of organizations as they age and shows how their strengths become weaknesses in changing circumstances. HurstÕs core argument is that the human mind is rational in an ecological, rather than a logical, sense. In other words, it has evolved to extract cues to action from the specific situations in which it finds itself. Therefore contexts matter, and Hurst shows how passion, reason, and power can be used to change and sustain organizations for good and ill. The result is an inspirational synthesis of management theory and practice that will resonate with every readerÕs experience.

In the complex landscapes of multiple global crises, the book unfolds as a panoramic journey through the intricate pathways of women and power, weaving a tapestry that transcends crises and ushers in a transformative vision of a just world. Against the backdrop of a patriarchal history steeped in autocratic power practices, the author urges us to recognize, understand and redefine power in its myriad forms for collective feminist power practices. With meticulous analysis, she unveils challenges posed by the patriarchal backlash, exposing the normalized male definitions of power and the societal structures that sustain pathological power relationships. The narrative of the book intertwines power, economy and patriarchy, laying bare the many traps for complicity with the patriarchal systems. The author advocates for a paradigm shift, emphasizing the role of female memories and genealogies as foundational elements for a collective feminist practice. Power, in this context, emerges not as a force for dominance but as the ability to make a positive impact, flourishing in the rich diversity of differences. The envisioned future is one where societies thrive on commons, planetary care, feminist economies and pluriversality. The narrative charts a course toward a feminist democracy, rooted in nurturing the planet and safeguarding future generations. Governance and networks stand as keystones in shaping these utopian landscapes, where pioneers and movements play vital roles in sculpting the contours of tomorrow. The book offers practical tools for strengthening collective feminist practices that can restructure power pathologies. It unfolds as a captivating vista, where the echoes of the past harmonize with the aspirations of a feminist future.
