Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Why do wealthy societies fracture Why do democracies drift toward instability even in times of material abundance And what hidden forces shape the path between flourishing and collapse In The Moral Ecology of Collapse: Essays on Inequality, Complexity, and the Instability of Democratic Societies, Lawrence R. Kunkel offers a sweeping, interdisciplinary exploration of the systems that govern modern life-economic, social, psychological, technological, and political. Drawing from complexity science, game theory, chaos theory, and moral philosophy, Kunkel reveals how small disturbances in unequal, highly interconnected societies can cascade into polarization, cognitive capture, institutional decay, and democratic fragility.Through vivid metaphors, phase-space models, and real-world case studies, this book reveals the profound patterns underlying modern instability: the rise of oligarchic attractors, the feedback loops of social stratification, the emergence of collective illusions, and the strategic incentives that drive societies toward brinkmanship rather than reform. Kunkel argues that inequality is not merely an economic outcome but a systemic condition that alters cognition, behavior, institutions, and ultimately the moral fabric of society.Yet the story is not deterministic. The Moral Ecology of Collapse outlines a new framework, Systems Humanism, for rebuilding the intellectual and ethical foundations of institutions, designing economies that promote flourishing, and restoring democratic resilience in a nonlinear world.Clear, urgent, and intellectually ambitious, this book addresses economists, social thinkers, policymakers, and citizens seeking to understand and shape the forces that shape our collective future.…
