Theme: Does the freedom to be the architects of our own lives actually hinder rather than help us?
TED Talks presented:
– Tim Jackson founded RESOLVE in May 2006 as an nter-disciplinary collaboration across four areas — CES, psychology, sociology and economics — aiming to develop an understanding of the links between lifestyle, societal values and the environment. He is also the author of the influential book Propserity Without Growth.
– In this new RSAnimate, Professor Renata Salecl explores the paralysing anxiety and dissatisfaction surrounding limitless choice. Does the freedom to be the architects of our own lives actually hinder rather than help us? Does our preoccupation with choosing and consuming actually obstruct social change?
