Asoka Bandarage provides an integrated analysis of the twin challenges of environmental sustainability and human well-being by investigating them as interconnected phenomena requiring a paradigmatic psychosocial transformation. She presents an incisive social science analysis and an alternative philosophical perspective on the needed transition from a worldview of domination to one of partnership.
Asoka Bandarage is author of Colonialism in Sri Lanka: The Political Economy of the Kandyan Highlands, 1833-1886; Women, Population and Global Crisis: A Political-Economic Analysis; The Separatist Conflict in Sri Lanka: Terrorism, Ethnicity, Political Economy and many other publications. She has taught at Brandeis, Mount Holyoke, Georgetown and other universities across the US.
