Synopsis

Wicked problems are the massive, intractable issues which tend to defy solutions, or even progress. They’re interconnected and systemic, so attempts to affect change often ripple through in unexpected ways. Things like war, epidemics, and climate change are just a few of the things which the Wicked Problems Collaborative will take on.

Our first book "What do we do about inequality?" looks at rampant and growing disparities in various forms and looks to help the reader understand these problem from new perspectives, while also offering ideas towards creating outcomes that are more just than those that are currently endured.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

The Wicked Problems Collaborative is an experiment which looks to improve public discourse around wicked problems (climate change, inequality, poverty, species extinction, ocean acidification, etc.) through the promotion of new, divergent lines of thinking. The goal isn’t to obtain agreement but to collectively evolve our thinking towards more nuanced, generative perspectives that will lead to positive change.
