Charles Eisenstein

Author

Charles Eisenstein is the author of numerous essays and books, organized around the theme of the evolution of civilization's defining myths, stories, and sense-of-self. He served as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s speechwriter during his 2024 presidential campaign, where he developed the concept of a "transcendent center" -- not the midpoint between two poles, but a synthesis incorporating unconscious agreements and values shared by both sides. He is an advocate for peace and healing in politics, ecology, and world affairs.
