Duane Elgin

Social Field

I am an internationally recognized author, speaker, and social visionary who looks beneath the surface turbulence of our times to explore the deeper trends transforming our world. I hold an MBA in business and an MA in economic history. My books include Choosing EarthAwakening EarthVoluntary Simplicity, and The Living Universe. I have served as a senior social scientist on the staff of the Presidential Commission on the American Future and at the think-tank SRI International, co-authoring studies of the long-range future for clients such as the President’s Science Advisor and the National Science Foundation. Additionally, I have co-founded three non-profit organizations dedicated to media accountability and “Electronic Town Meetings.” In recognition of my contributions to a global “vision, consciousness, and lifestyle” that fosters a more sustainable and spiritual culture, I received the Peace Prize of Japan, the Goi Award. I am currently the Co-director of the Choosing Earth Project.
