I just uploaded the Volume 3, of the series about "The transition from Western-Modernity to After-Modernity", titled "Societal Knowledge Formation".
It is now available on my website.
Click "Societal Knowledge Formation" to download.
Here is how I introduced this volume in the foreword.
"Knowledge does not procure access to the truth about what the reality of the universe is all about nor about our place in it. Truth is inaccessible to humanity for reasons that I’ll discuss in Part 1. What knowledge provides is access to the "first principles" that govern the continuity of life through reproduction and the compatibility, of novelty-inducing complexity, with that continuity.
Philosophic rationalism, and the scientific method, have ignored this most fundamental truth which explains why Western-Modernity is terminating today with the predicament of extinction that humanity unfortunately appears unable to solve.
In the present moment, of particular urgency for life on earth, the formation of knowledge, which is different from the formation of scientific knowings, is suddenly being rediscovered as the source of humanity’s hope to grasp the nature of these "First Principles". And their potential to solve the predicament caused by Western-Modernity, is awakening us to the societal nature of knowledge.
As today’s rudderless Western decision-making attests there is no Alternative to the societal priority of knowledge formation ! I dedicate this Volume to those who like me dream about a better tomorrow".
It is now available on my website.
