Relational ontologies in politics

Our understanding of being (ontology) affects how we imagine and build the political institutions. In this Deep Dive twenty people from different disciplines and geographic regions formed a common understanding and community around the importance of relational ontologies to societal transformation. The conversation weaved together various strands of knowledge from philosophers, political scientists, economists, commoners, anthropologists, patterns experts, systems thinkers, and sustainability scientists. The event entailed a balance of discussion, practice, and process-oriented sessions and a space to create, share, and enact the integration of ontological shifts for sustainable practice in various social context.
