Thirty Theses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781446167922)

"We all have basic assumptions about the world, human nature, and the relationship between the two. We are taught certain perspectives as children, and this recieved wisdom forms the common ground for communication. Ultimately, when we see the whole picture, our major disagreements are squabbles over details. Should gays be allowed to marry? We assume here a common understanding of what "marriage" means. Should we raise or lower taxes? We assume the legitimacy of government, and of taxes at all! What happens when the disagreement occurs at an even more basic level? Like, whether or not our civilization is even a good thing?" - J. Godesky Inspired by green anarchism and anthropology, Godesky continues the reflection on collapse and sustainability initiated by authors like Joseph Tainter or Jared Diamond. His work can thus be seen as contributing to the development of this school of thought now known as "collapsology".
