The Idea of the Communiversity: Releasing the Natural, Cultural, Technological and Economic GENE-ius of Societies

DESCRIPTION

Across the world, we are facing a crisis in education at all levels: for some communities, schooling remains inaccessible, and for others, educational institutions have become elite qualification factories.

What kind of knowledge do we need to survive in the present century and next? Do the current modes of knowledge creation and application address the challenges of the 21st century? How do we bridge the dichotomy between being and knowing, research and innovation, theory and practice?

In The Idea of the Communiversity, the authors propose a new approach to the economic, social, technological, educational and moral transformation of society. This book takes an integral world's approach to societal transformation, by pointing to ways in which we can reform our modes of knowledge creation. Through the fourfold model of community, pilgrimium, academy and co-laboratory, Lessem, Adodo and Bradley--all intellectual and grassroots activists--have re-conceptualised a university for every people and culture, centred on the need to think local and act global. We have seen the eras of post-colonialism and decoloniality. This book ushers us into a new one--that of the Communiversity.
