Robb Smith discusses the need for integrative conceptual work in today's world with Integration journal Editor-in-Chief Nicholas Hedlund and Managing Editor Brendan Graham Dempsey. Why do the interconnected challenges of the metacrisis demand integrative solutions? How are emancipatory struggles aided by embracing critical metatheory? What do the very patterns of knowledge integration suggest about a bold new story of wholeness? Finally, the three outline the vision and scope of the new journal and explore the nature and uses of an "integrative metatheory 2.0" beyond postmodernism.
