"Planetary Politics" by Lorenzo Marsilli offers a detailed exploration of the growing issues facing governments around the world due to their inability to meet the necessities for continued economic and social growth.
The book focuses on the challenges faced by democracies as they struggle to maintain their authority amid the emergence of novel and extraordinarily powerful players in the international arena who threaten to render their efforts obsolete. This assertion coupled with the inevitable necessity to confront environmental change contributes to a troubling yet necessary assessment of how governments are required to reassess their ideologies, priorities, and ultimately their conceptions in regard to the planet. As the book argues, planetary issues and crises cannot be solved through the standard approach of state-centric power. Instead, it encourages readers to address the ecologic, economic, social, and demographic conflicts in new ways to find meaningful solutions and realize the promise of a prosperous and sustainable future.
Эта книга является всеобъемлющим исследованием надвигающегося планетарного кризиса современной эпохи и призывает к созданию новой философии планетарной политики и ради спасения нашей планеты, призывая нас немедленно переступить через границы национальных государств и обратиться к глобальной мировой проблеме.

Описание книги от Lorenzo Marsili
The global crisis of our time involves a complex of ecological, economic, technological and migratory challenges that no state is able to control. The result is a provincialisation of our democracies with respect to the new planetary powers confronting humanity. It is from this that our increasingly impotent and rabid politics stems. Paradoxical as it may seem, it is precisely the decline of the nation-state that is the source of the great nationalist uprising of our time.<br /><br />We need a new planetary vision that is able to reclaim and liberate our world, starting today and engaging each of us. This is the task of philosophy as much as it is of politics, of theory as it is of activism. Connecting with a new generation taking to the streets across the globe, this book tells the story of the ever-closer union of our world, from the age of empire to the climate crisis, and presents a plea and a roadmap to step beyond the mental and material boundaries of our nations.
