NILS GILMAN in conversation with MISHA GLENNY

AKADEMIE DER BILDENDEN KÜNSTE WIEN, SITZUNGSSAAL
The pressing problems of our age-from deadly viruses to climate-changing carbon molecules and harmful pollutants that cross the globe unimpeded by national borders-can only be solved through multilateral cooperation. Could a new network of government mechanisms and institutions be put in place and cooperate effectively on levels from the local to the planetary? In conversation with IWM Rector MISHA GLENNY, the co-author of Children of a Modest Star: Planetary Thinking for an Age of Crises (Stanford University Press, 2024) and academic director of the Berggruen Institute NILS GILMAN presents a new framework for addressing what he calls “the planetary condition.”
