Active Hope (revised)
ByPublisher Description
The challenges we face can be difficult even to think about. Climate change, war, political polarization, economic upheaval, and the dying back of nature together create a planetary emergency of overwhelming proportions. This revised, tenth anniversary edition of Active Hope shows us how to strengthen our capacity to face these crises so that we can respond with unexpected resilience and creative power. Drawing on decades of teaching an empowerment approach known as the Work That Reconnects, the authors guide us through a transformational process informed by mythic journeys, modern psychology, spirituality, and holistic science. This process equips us with tools to face the mess we’re in and play our role in the collective transition, or Great Turning, to a life-sustaining society.

“Having discovered Joanna Macy through podcasts, I wanted to dive deeper into her philosophy. She has so much wisdom and authenticity, and I recommend this book for anyone looking for inspiration and tools for a better future. The backdrop for this book is quite heavy, do I recommend viewing some collapse related content first, to understand the science behind collapse and the metacrisis.”Andrew Delong
