İnsanlığı Güçlü Kılacak Bütüncül Bir Model

“Birçok siyasetçi toplumu yön, değerler, ve kullandıkları kelimelerle birleştirmek yerine, kutuplaştırıyor. Belli bir oy oranını yakalamayı güvence altına alabilmek için milliyetçi, dini duygular gibi tahrik edip, tetiklemeyi kolaylaştıran diğer kavramları vurguluyorlar. Aslında bu süreç, yüzyıllardır kullanılagelen ve şiddet barındıran bir kısır döngünün özeti. Bu makalenin yazarı, çalışmasında herkesi birleştirebilecek yön, değerler, ve dili bir araya getiren bütüncül bir model sunuyor.”
