Wie indigenes Wissen die Welt retten kann. Eine Erz?hlung der Welt aus Sicht der Aborigines. "Sand Talk" beschert dem Leser nichts weniger als einen Wechsel der Perspektive, von der aus wir die Krisen der modernen Welt betrachten und neu beurteilen k?nnen. Tyson Yunkaporta, Angeh?riger des im australischen West Cape York beheimateten Apalech-Clans und Professor f?r Indigenes Wissen, vermittelt in diesem an Geschichten reichen Buch das tiefe, komplexe und prozesshafte Wissen der Aborigines. Ein Wissen, das aus der innigen und symbiotischen Beziehung zum Land und zu den Ahnen besteht und auf dem Denken in Geschichten und dem Erkennen von Mustern beruht. Es ist fl?chtig wie die Zeichnungen, die bei den Zwiegespr?chen oder den Unterhaltungen in der Gruppe in den Sand gezeichnet werden, und zugleich umfassend wie die Traumzeit. Es ist aber auch ein Wissen, das durch die westliche Zivilisation verheert wurde, die die weiten Gebiete Australiens ausgepl?ndert und die Kultur der Aborigines, die sich als H?ter des Landes verstehen, marginalisiert und verst?mmelt hat. Yunkaporta macht dieses versch?ttete Wissen lebendig und sucht in den Mustern der indigenen Kultur nach M?glichkeiten, die Moderne auf den Weg der Nachhaltigkeit zu f?hren.
