Change,
technology and complexity:
placing human beings
at the heart of
21st-century European
society |
Our
relation to time has changed
more during the last twenty
years than ever before.
In fact from now on, the
present is influenced
at least as much by the
future as by the past.
Future has become a crucial
incentive for most our
decisions, either at the
level of collective decisions
(long term consequences
of pollution, demographic
tendencies, …) or
individual decisions (Should
I buy a new computer or
telephone today, in sixth
months or in a year? Which
technical equipment will
I need for my job in three,
four or five years?).
Complexity (in societies
and organisations) and
change have become the
rule, particularly because
the new schemes of behaviour
are still uncertain. And
technology irrupts in
all sectors of human life
knocking over certitude,
limits and values. The
EU can try to build a
society where the human
being will be at the heart
of the evolutions or in
contrast where the human
being will turn into a
mere instrument or product.
Agriculture with its deep
roots in the past, and
food with its vital role
for the human being are
two good test areas for
what the EU wants to offer
to its children in the
next decades and also
to its seniors who will
paradoxically constitute
a major social group in
an ever changing society.
