Especially timely given our polarized world, \u003ci\u003eChasing We-ness \u003c\/i\u003eexamines how social media, AI, new leadership styles, and other modern developments affect our state of we-ness. It illuminates how our contemporary identities find expression in both progressive and conservative social movements that foster a sense of we-ness. Embracing the reality that \"we\u0026amp;#x2019;re all in this together,\" the book interrogates our efforts to achieve a state of we-ness that rejects hate, social injustice, and autocratic agendas in the twenty-first century.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book explores why, how, and with what effect we build we-ness into our lives in both healthy and destructive ways. William Marsiglio draws on his expertise as a leading sociologist to explore the motivational forces that inspire a sense of group belonging in intimate groups, civic organizations, thought communities, sports and leisure activities, and work. Promoting initiatives that cultivate mindfulness, empathy, altruism, and leadership, \u003ci\u003eChasing We-ness\u003c\/i\u003e proposes essential life skills to empower us, reduce social divisions, strengthen the social fabric, and uplift our spirits as global citizens. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Illustrations \u003cbr\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart I.
