Korten argues that the industrial growth society is unsustainable, both ecologically and socially. He points to the growing gap between rich and poor, the destruction of the environment, and the increasing frequency of war and violence as evidence of this unsustainability.

Korten believes that we must make a fundamental shift in our values and priorities if we want to create a more sustainable and just world. He calls for a shift from a focus on economic growth to a focus on human and ecological well-being.

Korten also argues that we must move from a worldview that sees humans as separate from and superior to nature to a worldview that sees humans as part of a larger web of life.

The Great Turning is a challenging and thought-provoking book that offers a vision of a more hopeful future. It is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about the future of our planet and its people.

Here are some of the key themes in The Great Turning:

  • The unsustainability of the industrial growth society
  • The need for a shift in values and priorities
  • The importance of indigenous wisdom
  • The need for a worldview that sees humans as part of a larger web of life

The Great Turning is a powerful and inspiring book that offers a vision of a more hopeful future. It is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about the future of our planet and its people.
