Redefining Spiritual Spaces in the Age of Technology, Gebunden

Klappentext

Emerging technologies are entering every aspect of human life, including the spiritual realm. At the same time, spirituality has entered mainstream environments, including business, education, health and healing, and tech design. This provides an opportunity for technology and wisdom traditions to evolve together due to the widening audiences and worldviews. In this open access volume, an assembly of experts explores the intersection of spirituality and technology as they are emerging in a variety of contexts in our world. Through a mixture of philosophy, advocacy, presentation of research findings, and sharing of practices, this book illustrates technology's influence on spirituality and vice versa and its applications to management, strategy, and leadership. At the same time, contributing authors identify the surfacing pitfalls, shadow material, and areas that must be attended to during this time of evolving landscapes. Additionally, two of the chapters highlight virtual practices that focus on racial healing, which are of crucial import at this time in our collective history, and another two explore healing, justice, and liberation through the uses of technology. Written in a think-piece style, this book is accessible to those within and outside of academia.

This is an open access book.
