Description

Undoubtedly, the XXth century’s great ideological models have gone into crisis, at least in the sense that today it is challenging for them to be fully taken by some government and as a polar reference by large political forces on a world scale. Today we are confronted with globalist ideologies and practices and communitarian tensions. The substance is in a confrontation, starting from the economic field, between strong powers, managed by international finance and big corporations, and intellectual and political tensions for a paradigm change. A new paradigm, a new Third Way, whose one of its primary goal is to realize extensive and real participation of everybody in the collective choices, every field, and level, is expressed in this Manifesto, a synthesis of an elaboration of a great number of scholars worldwide, showing a broad positive vision, with an explicit project proposal, here analyzed and discussed.
