The course takes a macro-level perspective to explore the nature, different forms, and implications of societal transition. Faced with climate constraints and environmental challenges, companies, like all other actors, must change profoundly and engage in this transition. However, understanding this societal transition requires thinking about the relationships and interdependencies between different empirical phenomena and scientific disciplines. To this end, we will introduce participants to the systems approach and theories of complexity to understand society as a complex system.

The course covers four days from Mai 9th to May 12th and is delivered fully online, combining asynchronous and live synchronous teaching and learning activities.
