After a few trials here and here, for specific occasions, this is "the" blog, the one i am going to keep writing on, wherever I am.
My ambition is to bring to you, family, friends, aiesecers, unknown readers, some mind-opening facts and ideas.
I look at life with eyes standing sometimes very close, sometimes very far, from the daily events that everyone encounters. I believe there is something to get, to learn from most of what happens. Not a lesson, in an off-putting way; rather inspiration, new points of view, paradigm-bending ideas. Dont worry, we will talk later about what a paradigm is ;)
I believe no single approach, like economic or social, encompasses the whole of the Human Condition. It is not possible to look at just one of those topics and aim to understand some key rules that will be sufficient to make the world work.
On the contrary, I believe in a global, all-inclusive approach. One has to take in everything, all that is now and all that has been before, and all the interactions between all things to understand how the world works and how to make progress on our "big problems".
Of course it is impossible to achieve ultimate knowledge. Let's leave that for superior entities, whichever belief (or non) you embrace.
But I think we should try. Let's try to find out more about how our planet works, our society develops, what it means to be human. Here as in many other situations, the final destination - ultimate knowledge - is not as interesting as the path towards it.

To be able to share all knowledge available, and to build upon it ... Hmmm, it reminds me from... what already ??? ...
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, that't it : "HUMANISM", as philosophers experienced it in XVI-XVIII th centuries.
(At the time, also, people could have the impression they could encompass a lot in one's head. Those were merry times . Think of the excitement of those who proposed new paradigms ;-)
