Come and see, the common change

12 Jan
Many are the authors who face serious world problems: climate change, aLightEarthepidemics caused by genetic mutations of viruses and bacteria, revolutions and terrorism, corruption demonstrated by the Swiss Leaks, Panama Papers and now Paradise Papers, among others, are never and never were episodes localized, restricted in regions or countries, the idea of a “target community” of Edgar Morin or all in the same boat as Petr Sloterdijk, is the demonstration that we need global solutions to global problems.
Morin evokes Emilio de Rousseau (1992) to declare the general principle of his proposal, which inspires the title of this book: an education that “teaches to live,” Sloterdijk goes further and evokes 4,000 years of history to teach us that. “The art of belonging can only begin again from small orders.” So the change for humanity is to sow in small groups, remembering the “sowing” of Nietzsche and also Heidegger warns that everything is happening in absolute silence, but it is there.
Edgar Morin warns that the philosophical studies of science and education call for the foundation of a new scientific paradigm, free from the current disjunction that isolates subjects and objects of study, and that promotes the reconnection between them and their contexts in a transdisciplinary practice which in turn will require the training of students, scientists and researchers capable of crossing disciplinary boundaries and who are therefore police-competent (Morin, 2003: 110).
We think that these reflections have applicability in any area of knowledge, from the so-called hard sciences, be they in the humanities, but in our view they will mainly have, on the studies of Communication and Information, transdisciplinary areas par excellence, this reflection can be found even in a Latin American author Nestor Garcia Canclini.
There are small pockets of studies and “clearings” where these studies can take place, they are like those who wanted to know where Jesus lived, in the Bible it is written in John 1:39 when the disciples ask where he lived; Jesus answered,” Come and see. ” So they went to see where he lived, and that day they stayed with him. It was about four in the afternoon.”
