Ecological Crisis, Sociality, and the Digital (Self-)Management

Following various findings of empirical studies, there is no doubt that the ecological crisis has to be regarded as one of the most pressing problems of the present. The chapter first discusses the importance of individual action for the ecological transformation of society. A following sketch of the limitations of political and economic action shows that the self-management of modern subjects is indispensable for such a transformation. The next section discusses social reasons that prevent the development and implementation of new, pro-environmental types of practice. Finally, on the basis of this diagnosis, some recommendations are formulated for a (yet to be developed) creative management of self-management.
