Abstract

The second in the new series of reviews for Action Research Journal is inspired by, and aims to contribute to, this journal’s focus on transformations towards sustainability. How can we, as action researchers, connect our emancipatory, grassroots work with the big global transformations needed to bring forth a just, harmonious and thriving world? When so much needs to transform, where do we start? In 2022, the Club of Rome offered a possible response in a new report called Earth for All, also published as a book and supporting website. Framed as ‘a survival guide for humanity’, Earth for All calls for ‘five extraordinary policy turnarounds’: ending poverty; addressing gross inequality; empowering women; making our food system healthy for people and ecosystems; and transitioning to clean energy. It is ‘an aspirational, stubbornly optimistic guide to the future’ (p. 26). It argues that action on these five big issues could give us the momentum we need to transform the economy in support of sustainability. Action researchers can help to give this agenda momentum by bringing it into our conversations with citizens and facilitating spaces for dialogue and agonism.
人人享有地球:实现可持续世界的五项政策转折
这是《行动研究期刊》新系列评论的第二篇,其灵感来源于本期刊对可持续发展转型的关注,旨在为本期刊做出贡献。作为行动研究者,我们如何才能将我们的解放性基层工作与实现公正、和谐和繁荣世界所需的全球大变革联系起来?当如此多的事情需要变革时,我们从哪里开始?2022 年,罗马俱乐部在一份名为《人人享有地球》(Earth for All)的新报告中提出了一个可能的对策,该报告还出版了一本书并建立了一个辅助网站。作为 "人类生存指南","人人享有地球 "呼吁 "五项非凡的政策转变":消除贫困;解决严重的不平等问题;赋予妇女权力;使我们的食品系统对人类和生态系统健康有益;以及向清洁能源过渡。它是 "一个充满抱负、顽固乐观的未来指南"(第 26 页)。它认为,在这五大问题上采取行动,可以为我们提供经济转型所需的动力,以支持可持续发展。行动研究人员可以通过将这一议程带入我们与公民的对话中,促进对话和争论的空间,从而为这一议程提供动力。

期刊介绍: Action Research is a new international, interdisciplinary, refereed journal which is a forum for the development of the theory and practice of action research. Our purpose with this international, peer reviewed journal is to offer a forum for participative, action oriented inquiry into questions that matter--questions relevant to people in the conduct of their lives, that enable them to flourish in their organizations and communities, and that evince a deep concern for the wider ecology. The aim of the journal is to offer a viable alternative to dominant "disinterested" models of social science, one that is relevant to people in the conduct of their lives, their organizations and their communities.
