2 Why Global Understanding?
3 Bildquelle: Northeastern University Globalized Geographies
4 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition In the face of global social and climate change, we must think globally. But global thinking presupposes global understanding. IYGU clarifies connections between the local and the global.
5 Globalization Socio-Cultural (Contextuality) Acceleration Global Sustainability Magnitude Bio-Physical (Causality) Pace
6 Garbage Ex. by Prof. Gordon McBean (President of ICSU&Steering Committee of IYGU)
7 Smog air pollutants in atmosphere only some (5 10) days Smog pollution is mainly a regional problem Smog pollutants In 2013, far more than 2 Mio persons died from the effects of air pollution. 7
8 Carbon dioxide: in atmosphere about 100 years In 2 4 years: mixes around the globe Carbon dioxide Our local garbage becomes GLOBAL GARBAGE! 8
9 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition The IYGU s main goal is to promote global understanding in an praxis centered way and change problematic actions. Actions and decisions shall yield sustainable outcomes, every day, all over the world.
10 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition Triple Problematic for Integrative Research Absolutely pre-given Natural and/or Spatial Reality (Biology, traditional Geography, Geo Politics) Absence of Nature and Corporeality in Social Theory (Sociology, History) Ontological Problems in Systems Approaches (General System Research, Sustainability Research)
11 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition Ditches and Walls to Overcome 1. Container Space/Containerization of Life: Regions/Living spaces 1. From Newton Haeckel Ratzel Geo Politics 1. Determinism : Reductionism : Biologism and beyond 1. Exclusion of the construction of meaningful realities: Naturalization
12 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition Threefold Shortcomings so far 1. Lack of appropriate understanding of the social and cultural worlds by natural scientists and engineers; 1. Lack of understanding and integration of bio-physical elements on the part of scholars in the social sciences and the humanities; and 1. Reductionist implications of general system approach.
13 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition Alternative Approach 1. Human agency, social action/praxis as starting point 1. Human body as interface of the Natural and the Social 1. Constitution of spatial realities are action-depending, not absolute 1. Meaningful construction and transformation of the bio-physical world by human action -> cultural differentiation 5. Double social appropriation of nature: scientific and everyday realities.
14 Global Understanding: An essential Human Condition Global Understanding implies an action centered bridge building between the local and global, social and natural, science and everyday life. Focusing on local/regional for global sustainability.
15 Global Understanding
16 Global Understanding Three Interfaces Local Global Social Natural Everyday Sciences
17 Global Understanding Making visible impacts of local actions for global sustainabiltiy. Empower bottom-up movements. Moving from knowing about sustainability to living sustainably.
18 People s Politics
19 People s Politics Everyday decisions depend on lifestyle. All lifestyles are embedded in regional cultures.
20 People s Politics Emphasizing the cultural dimensions of sustainability. Local, individual choices shape global change. Change must come from the bottom up.
21 Science and Everyday Life
22 Science and Everyday Life Focus on embodied everyday practices Core dimensions of everyday geography-making
23 Focus on everyday activities Eating/Drinking// Surviving Moving/Staying// Belonging Working/Housing// Urbanizing
24 Focus on everyday activities Wasting/Recycling// Preserving Communicating/Networking// Interacting Sports/Entertaining// Recreating
25 How to do it?
26 How to do it? Three Levels Research Bringing together the humanities, social and natural scientists Education Bringing research results at all levels in classrooms throughout the world Information Print media, social networks, internet platforms ( and TV programs.
