On 5 April 1955, literature laureate Bertrand Russell wrote to physics laureate Albert Einstein to ask for his support in standing up against nuclear weapons.

Einstein agreed. The letter led to the Russell-Einstein Manifesto, which Einstein signed days before his death.

Il web è nato da esigenze scientifiche. E la scienza potrebbe curarne le malattie. Per il ciclo “Pensare bene”, ne parliamo con Ersilia Vaudo: il rigore del metodo scientifico può ispirare pratiche di informazione più robuste e consapevoli?

Una delle tesi di questo libro è che lo stato sociale, gli investimenti nella tradizione energetica, nella protezione dell’ambiente, nella salute umana, nell’integrazione sociale delle persone migranti, nella conoscenza come bene pubblico, anche quando possono offrire opportunità di guadagno, non misurano il loro ritorno prevalentemente con l’accumulazione di capitale, ma con l’impatto sul benessere sociale a lungo termine.

About this book

This book describes the urgent need of modern humanity to renew and reinforce an open attitude to the complexity of life, above all by embracing its intrinsic indeterminacy, rather than attempting futilely to control its evolution. Oblivious to this ever-more urgent necessity, seduced by the speed and virality of digital pattern recognition, computing, and artificial simulation of human thought, society has reverted to a linear, deterministic concept of reality, under the belief that everything can be measured and managed, and that error and unpredictability will soon be eliminated from our lives and organizations.

Consequently, choices and responsibilities have been delegated to technology, artificial intelligence and algorithms, even in educational institutions, which are now preoccupied with teaching mere skills and know-how, thus committing the fatal error of confusing artificial, mechanical, complicated systems with living, complex, adaptive systems. 

This volume is intended not only for complexity/social scientists, philosophers and students, but to the curious from all walks of life. It calls for learning to inhabit complexity, while recognizing and participating in its interdependent, interconnected, interactive systems of relationships. Dominici reveals the futility of endeavoring to control the uncontrollable or observe the unobservable, showing how self-organization and emergence, triggered from the smallest and most modest elements, impact the entire system.

Cigni neri e paradigmi inadeguati..

“La nostra vita è emergenza, è permanente relazione, sequenza infinita, e non lineare, di processi dinamici in cui l’emergente si manifesta in tutti i modi possibili e inimmaginabili, imprevedibili.

La nostra vita è “sequenza infinita di tanti cigni neri”[1], secondo la vecchia metafora già in uso presso gli antichi: “cigni neri” dalle numerose sfumature, segnati da un’ambivalenza originaria e da contraddizioni apparentemente insanabili. A tale proposito, si ha la netta sensazione che, spesso, a tutti i livelli di azione della prassi organizzativa e sociale, coloro i quali, in presenza di situazioni/dinamiche sfuggite al loro controllo, insistono sulla questione/metafora del “cigno nero”[2], dell’evento unico e imprevedibile o, comunque, altamente improbabile, non cerchino/non facciano altro che operare/costruire delle (“classiche”) razionalizzazioni a posteriori in grado di rassicurare gli altri e sé stessi rispetto al fatto che, nonostante qualche episodio, tutto rimane sotto controllo, gestibile e prevedibile.

E così, la vecchia “illusione del controllo” – di impadronirsi del caso e del proprio destino – continua ad occupare una posizione di assoluta egemonia, non soltanto in termini di immaginari organizzativi e sociali, nonostante le evidenze ne abbiano mostrato la profonda inconsistenza e inadeguatezza.

Al contrario, la vita sociale e umana è caratterizzata da infinite sequenze, non lineari, di cigni neri.

Errore, imprevedibilità, complessità e dinamismo sistemico ne sono gli elementi costitutivi” (cit.).

🌐Abstract🌐

📌 Before discussing the prospects for educating young people toward becoming global citizens, we must ask ourselves: is global citizenship reality or illusion? What can be stated is that plain citizenship itself can no longer be considered merely a legal or judicial question.

📌 Today, citizenship is only partially linked to rights and duties deriving from the recognition of an individual as belonging to a community (local, national or international). Future citizens of the digitally hyper-connected global village face two dangers: simulation of participation and the illusion of having a less asymmetrical relationship to power.

📌 The rules of engagement are not being written by legislators but by agencies producing and sharing knowledge; citizenship (global or otherwise) is intimately correlated with access to quality education.

👉Three concepts form the basis for educating toward global citizenship:

- 1️⃣ awareness that citizenship and education are inseparable,
- 2️⃣ awareness that democracy and education are inseparable, and
- 3️⃣ awareness that democracy is complexity** (quote).

🌎 Global citizenship: Reality or illusion?
