Consilience: The Journal of Sustainable Development
March 17, 2009 7:58 PM

Well, well, well...we have another member of the "Consilience" family!

Up the road at Columbia University, a group of avid students and economists have started a new Journal called Consilience: The Journal of Sustainable Development. And yes, it's based on the same idea that started our little corner of Consilience:

About

con·sil·i·ence, noun. The joining together of knowledge and information across disciplines to create a unified framework of understanding.

Consilience is a global online publication dedicated to promoting interdisciplinary dialogue on sustainable development. By providing a public platform for discussion, we hope to encourage a global community to think more broadly, thoroughly and analytically about sustainable development.

This publication aims to bring students, researchers, professors, and practitioners from a variety of disciplines and geographical regions in direct conversation with each other through an online, academically rigorous medium.

It almost sounds like our "About" page, doesn't it?

Acting as a platform upon which discussion can take place, Consilience Productions wants to connect topics that might seem mutually exclusive at first, but are, in fact, associated in one way or another.

They were inspired by E.O. Wilson's, "Consilience," the same book after which this site is named, as well as our first CD!
