تراجع التبادل الهادف للأفكار ووجهات النظر المتنوعة وبدأ يتلاشى على مدى العقود الأخيرة. بشكل متزايد، تتعرض الأفكار غير النمطية للتجاهل، رغم أن مناهج الأفكار المثرثرة القائمة على الخوف والهيمنة الطبقية أثبتت مراراً عدم كفاءتها للتعامل مع التعقيدات والأزمات الحقيقية في العصر الحديث.

As surely as temperatures rise during the summer, climate alarmism serves up more stories of life-threatening heat domes, apocalyptic fires and biblical floods, all blamed squarely on global warming.

Bjorn Lomborg said Friday that politicians were blaming climate change for disasters like the wildfires on Maui to duck “responsibility” for “failures” in addressing them.

El intercambio significativo de ideas y perspectivas verdaderamente diversas se ha marchitado en las últimas décadas. Necesitamos fomentar y promover el pensamiento crítico y el debate constructivo. Nuestra nueva Alianza para una Ciudadanía Responsable (ARC), una coalición internacional de políticos, líderes empresariales, intelectuales y analistas culturales, contribuirá a garantizar que se escuche una gama más amplia de perspectivas en todo el mundo.

We’re erring on the side of positive expectations again. This time with Bjørn Lomborg. His new book is Best Things First. There he sets his sights on cost effective, acheivable goals that will lift the world’s poorest out of miserable conditions and inch us along in the direction towards those sustainable goals we hear about so much. We ask the minuscule billions of dollars question: Are the world’s most prosperous ready for such tangible win-win?

Ahead of the UN General Assembly next month where the Global Goals for 2030 will be a major talking point, Lomborg is promoting the most effective solutions in media around the world, urging the UN and its member states to prioritize those solutions that will do the greatest amount of good per dollar spent.
Take a look at his new interview with Michael Shermer.

Az elmúlt évtizedekben visszaszorult az egymástól valóban különböző eszmék és nézőpontok értelmes ütköztetése. Az unortodox gondolkodásmódot egyre inkább elvetik vagy figyelmen kívül hagyják, még akkor is, amikor a fecsegő elitek (chattering class) félelemre és erőre épülő megközelítései ismétlődően alkalmatlannak bizonyulnak arra, hogy kezeljék a modern világ valódi komplexitását és válságait.

The meaningful exchange of truly diverse ideas and perspectives has withered over recent decades.

Unorthodox thinking is increasingly trashed or disregarded, even as the chattering class’s fear- and force-predicated approaches repeatedly prove inadequate to cope with the true complexities and crises of the modern world.
