Description

The generation of meaning is the primary precondition for acting and thinking.

The essays in this volume contribute to a discourse on this matter with a decentred, globalized world in mind.

The notions civilization, humanism and modernity - far from being exclusively Western ideas - may facilitate joint efforts of reflecting on the universality of current human conditions, particularly since such reflexion is possible from particular cultural perspectives.

Modernity presents us with a second Axial Time in which the quest for a plural, but shared, humane world is the challenge.
