How to explain Copenhagen to a comedianMemo to Eugene Mirman

http://www.grist.org/article/2009-12-03-how-to-explain-copenhagen-to-a-comedian Photo illustration / iStock images

Comedian Eugene Mirman is going to Copenhagen for Grist to cover the international climate talks. Eugene is a fairly well-informed guy (he at least scans Google News looking for reviews of his latest album), but he’s the first to admit that he doesn’t live, eat, and smoke climate policy.At his request, the Grist staff threw together a basic cheat sheet on Copenhagen.  It’s overly simplistic. It avoids lots of important details. It’s probably offensive. In short, it’s just enough to help Eugene feign cluefulness when he’s accosting world leaders in Denmark.

Whoever imagines mental deep permeable barriers

which actually do not exist  and then thinks them away, has understood the world. 

As space is entrapped in geometry's network of lines,  thought is caught in its (own) inherent laws. 

Maps make the world comprehensible to us;  we are still waiting for the star-maps of the spirit.  In the same way than ambling through fields  we risk getting lost, the spirit negotiates its terrain.

Friedrich Rückert, Wisdom of the Brahmins a didactic poem,

Charles T. Brooks in 1882 * this is a critical translation issue: WALLS a& BOUNDARIES are „man-made“ – have no equivalent in Nature. The term Schranken therfore can be trasnlated as restraining bounds, or semiphors, barriers & temporary permeable or translucent / transparent material/strata/membranes/transition zones).

The Need for a Paradigm Shift

•The step from Environmental Protection (Rio) to Sustainable Development (Johannesburg) implies a threefold shift of perspective, or paradigm shift:

❧ From sectorial thinking to systems thinking

❧ From deficit/problem to resource

❧ From knowledge to competence

Possible elements for a more tangible, practical, and feasible shared Global Learning

Elements needed for a different ways of (GLOBAL) learning and shared action and consensus building

PRE-REQUISIT: Space (tangible=dimensionality and immersion) in multi-dimensional multi-sectorial realmsMODEL THINKING: (also making use of cognitive spaces).

MAPS and (mental) MODELS to provide collectively explorable tangible spaces for multi-media and sign integration, multi-modal thinking and shared cognitive models, see super-signs and meta-models. See, Systems and Model (tangible pragmatics, Culture vs. Cyberculture.

OUTLINE (CONTEXT) -bounds and PATTERN -matching thinking on different levels of details or granularity. See Global Covenant and general comparative studies

DIALOG & DECISION CULTUREsee also extended version of the bullets above

and a GLOSSAR indispensable for immersing into the approaches presented

Why Democratic Dialogue?

• Motivations (just a few): • Increasing complexity & globalization of issues • Increasing interconnectedness (systems thinking)

– e.g. Global warming as a symptom: How do we reach agreement on root causes for action?

• Need for citizen participation in public institutions • Weakness of citizens vs. corporations in civil

issues– Not knowing how to make the most difference

• Breakdown of media communications, distrust

Page 60: Gyc 2010-benking-copen vegan-alliance-collage-for-gyc-part-2

• Socratic Dialogue • Gadamer’s hermeneutic dialogue• Habermas’ Communicative Action• Bohm’s “collective meaning”• Bakhtin’s dialogical imagination• Freire’s dialogue in education & social action• Facilitated dialogue, Art of Hosting• Talking Stick – World Cafe• Structured Dialogue – Dialogic Design• Magic Roundtables

So let us check below some hurdles and barriers we have to address which prevent us from reaching the objectives of :

Suspend Certainty

Seek to Expand the Questions

Grow Ideas Rather Than Take a Position

Listen to Your Listening

Be Open Rather Than Attaching to Outcomes

Subtitle of Fig 1: Although the perspectives of the world's people vary in space and time, every human concern falls somewhere on the space time graph. The majority of the world's people are concerned with matters that effect only family or friends over a short period of time. Others look far ahead in time or over a large area - a city or a nation. Only few people have a perspective that extends far into the future. *Later we can read in the book: that in contrast to the majorities focus in the quadrant in the lower left “box”, the book concerns itself with the upper right quadrant or “box”.
