Ariane König shares her work on studying complex systems, as well as practical advice for creating a regenerative society. She dives deep into defining what a system is in complex social-ecological-technological systems and stresses the significance of collective intelligence and transdisciplinary approaches in her research. Ariane discusses the work of political economist Elinor Ostrom on social coordination and the mechanisms that govern it, with examples of how market competition and government regulation fail, particularly in the case of common goods that are limited in their supplies. The conversation then looks at how to create a regenerative society, which involves both top-down and bottom-up approaches. Ariane highlights the need for local action and engaging in activities that can help regenerate the ecosystem, be it in an urban or rural setting.  Ariane König is an assistant professor at the University of Luxembourg leading a team on social ecological systems research. https://www.citizenscience.lu/ This episode of SystemShift comes from Greenpeace Nordic and is hosted by Greenpeace Sweden campaigner, Carl Schlyter, and produced by Alexia Fridén, with additional support from Ariadna Rodrigo, Juliana Costa, Christian Aslund and Attila Kulcsár.
