There has been a recent proliferation of research and practice on the interior dimensions of sustainability, such as values, beliefs, worldviews and inner capacities. This nascent field of inner transformation is dynamic and emerging, with varied terminology, a breadth of applications, and intense debate about possible contributions as well as limitations and shortcomings. In this article, we aim to provide some orientation by systematising the c…
Inner transformation to sustainability as a deep leverage point: Fostering New Avenues for Change Through Dialogue and Reflection
This article provides a rationale for inner transformation as a key and hitherto underresearched dimension of sustainability transformations.

The article draws on Meadows' leverage points approach, as places to intervene in a system, to reveal the relevance o…
Narratives of Sustainable Indian Urbanism: The Logics of Global and Local Knowledge Mobilities in Chennai
Global mobilities of knowledge and financial capital considerably influence the pathways of Indian urbanism, suggesting an economic-growth-driven agenda to future-proof cities in a sustainable development effort.

As the principles of the movement are grounded in a modern revision of classical Hindu philosophy emphasizing personal development and self-realization, it challenges the Western paradigm of materialism as an inevitable first stage of development. The findings of this case are contextualized by drawing …
