«Penser global: L'humain et son univers» is Edgar Morin's philosophical essay, published by Robert Laffont in paperback (131 pages, in French).
Edgar Morin analyzes globalization as a complex phenomenon and calls for a form of thought that integrates scattered knowledge to understand the human being and his universe. The work sets out how to meet the challenges of the contemporary world from a global and unfragmented perspective.
With a preface by Michel Wieviorka. The text is the revised version of six lectures delivered at the Université Paris I-Panthéon-Sorbonne.
A work aimed at readers interested in philosophy, social sciences and debates on globalization.
Edgar Morin was a French philosopher and sociologist of the theory of information who has been recognised for his work on complexity and "complex thought", and for his scholarly contributions to such diverse fields as media studies, politics, sociology, visual anthropology, ecology, education, and systems biology. He held two bachelors degrees, one in history and geography and one in law, and never did a Ph.D.
