By Nicolas听Kosoy (Associate Professor, Natural Resource Sciences, 捆绑SM社区).听听We are in urgent need of an agreement novel in听spirit and unheard of in our times, one that calls for the unity of all species听in our planet, one听that embraces the singularity of our universe, the听evolutionary history of our species, and the common path that we, human and听non-human听species, share in our one and only spaceship. I propose that such an agreement be based on alternative governance frameworks听stemming from the notion that humans are听part of nature and hence placing the concepts of embeddedness and relational听inter-dependence at the core of any policy听recommendation to manage socio-ecosystems. This talk will cover some of the experiences on alternative environmental governance in the past, present and imagined future to draw basic lessons for fairly sharing our planet with other species.
