About this Unit
In this unit we will explore the questions ‘can we create a sustainable society? If so what would it look like and how could it be done; is it possible to live ethically with each other and the planet?’ While major contemporary theoretical concepts will be explored the emphasis is on developing sustainable alternatives to the way we now live both locally and globally. Particular attention will be paid to thinking ecologically, postcolonial development and issues of race and gender.
