Integrative Responses to the Global Metacrisis: METATHEORY FOR THE ANTHROPOCENE, Vol 2 This book, split across two volumes, is a follow-up and companion to Metatheory for the Twenty-First Century (Routledge, 2016). All three of these volumes are the dialogical outcomes of a multi-year symposia series wherein critical realists and integral theorists deeply engaged each other and their distinct but complementary approaches to integrative metatheory. Whereas the latter is primarily theoretical in its focus, Metatheory for the Anthropocene aims to more concretely and practically address the complex planetary crises of a new era that many scholars now refer to as ‘the Anthropocene.’ In this second of the two new volumes, participants of the symposia series apply the powerful sensemaking and meaning-making frameworks of critical realism and integral theory to forge integrative responses to the global metacrisis—or the multiple causally interconnected large-scale crises occurring simultaneously. Together these chapters demonstrate how integrative metatheory and its application can make crucial contributions to addressing our global metacrisis in the domains of climate change, integrative research, religion and spirituality, and what could be termed ‘metaintegrations’. Both volumes together highlight the important role that metatheory can play in the Anthropocene. With one of the defining characteristics of the Anthropocene being the sheer complexity and multivalent nature of our interconnected global challenges, these volumes crucially present new forms of metatheory that can adequately weave together insights from multiple disciplines into new forms of metapraxis that accord with such complexity. As such, this book will be of interest to students, scholars, and practitioners in the areas of philosophy, social theory, critical realism, integral studies, metamodernism, and current affairs generally.
