Description
Richard A. Jones challenges us to think about globalization, not in terms of efficiency or monoculturalism, but as interdependent global entanglements.
Covering critical race theory, African philosophy, and AI, Jones presents a compelling argument for rethinking how our connections might lead to new forms of collectivity and future-making. Working against systems of hierarchy, he shows that, to reach any sustainable future, we must first recognize our mutual interdependency.
Applying the concept of entanglement to our current geopolitical situation, combined with recent thinking across aesthetics, politics, economics, science, and epistemology, Jones reveals the holistic patterns inherent to our world. It powerfully unites thinking from an impressive diversity of contexts, fields and thinkers, from ancient world theologies and John Mbiti's holisms, to Slavoj Žižek and Frederici's notion of a global commons. Jones's methodologies reinforce his argument – for commonality over divergence, and a sharing of thought over separation.
This imaginative book forges paths from insular nationalisms to participatory socialism. Eye-opening and generous, Jones addresses the future as a collective journey whose entangled paths are infinite and should be embarked on together.
