The Brink of Disaster . . . or The Brink of Maturity?. Sahtouris, E. World Future Review, 6(3):303–314, September, 2014. 00000
The Brink of Disaster . . . or The Brink of Maturity? [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Humanity faces a perfect storm of crises yet persists in distortion of evidence and outright denial. To account for this, the author argues that the foundations of science, theories based on them, and the adoption of Darwinian competition by economists have blinded us to an evolutionary mandate to shift from our youthful, competitive global economy into mature cooperation toward a truly wise society that integrates our economy into Earth’s ecology as an ecosophy. Nature shows the way, and once we see the mature side of evolution, we can recognize the promising signs of our own human evolution.
