Problem of Sustainability of Democracy in Context of Abrupt Civilisation Changes
Journal Title: ИДЕИ. ФИЛОСОФСКО СПИСАНИЕ - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
We encounter democracy in three fundamental forms. The first problem of its sustainability is that these forms are understood in a reductional manner only because they are regarded mostly only politically and we neglect economical, social, curtural or moral aspects of democracy. The other problem of sustainability of democracy is the intricacy and complexity of contemporary social scructures that are highly predisposed to abrupt and unexpected changes. The other real dimension of this problem emerges when we try to bring the problem of intercurtural coexistence into the context with other problems which are connected with it inseparably - the problem of global warming and environment in general, financial globalisation etc. In additon, contemporary philosophers, challenged by the complexity of the present world, should acknowlege the present state of scientic disciplines more profondly. Therefore it is required to disclose further connections betwen philosophy and ethik of our world as oikos.
