The Ethical City

Today, the human cosmos is sinking into a profound crisis of values, characterized by a hellish upsurge in acts of barbarism and less-than-laudable political and professional practices. This situation brings to mind the idea of the state of nature, and indeed the tragic reality of the present day. The state of nature is evident in moments of war, in the wave of political illegitimacy at work in the world, and in the eclipse of moral virtues. We really are in a state of nature. And to break free from it, we need to bring about the ethical transfiguration of the subject, in other words, build an etic city founded on the sacredness of values and the charisma of a green humanity. Thus, the future of the world lies in the world of the future, the world that enshrines ethical management in human relations, in political customs, in work routines and in our relationship with nature.
