Where is home in times of polycrisis in an uncertain international order?
While authoritarian regimes, post-truth, disinformation, and climate emergency continue to rise, and the futures of the liberal international order and the nation-state concept are increasingly contested in global governance, Ursula Le Guin’s works suggest that 'home' is not a place but being true to one’s art and staying on the side of truth, instead of power.

In her essay “The Operating Instructions,” Le Guin wrote, “Home isn’t where they have to let you in. It’s not a place at all."
"Home and homecoming were among the most powerful themes of Le Guin’s work [..] “home” stood for many things, including being true to one’s art."
