Full Description
The contemporary world is characterized by the interweaving of various networks, including biological, ecological, social, technological and energy-related networks. We are constantly engaged in interactions with these networks. In the context of energy and ecological and social transitions, it is essential to examine the positive or negative effects of these interactions. Additionally, it is crucial to explore the influence of the growing role that networks will play and the open or closed futures they will shape.
To address these issues, a multidisciplinary approach is essential, particularly between the technological sciences, humanities and life sciences. Rethinking Networks in Times of Transition analyzes and discusses four major themes: ecological networks in biodiversity and ecological transition; socio-technical changes related to energy networks; how social and controversy networks are transforming lifestyles, representations and modes of action; and finally, how academic networks can play a leading role in the transition
