Abstract

The text reflects on how, in a world dominated by science, technology, and overwhelming information, human beings have become more vulnerable, dissatisfied, and increasingly dependent on others’ perception. Although we are more connected than ever, we struggle to care for ourselves and for others. In response to this crisis of meaning, the authors gathered in this book aim to recover awareness and rationality to better understand our reality. The text argues that academia must address urgent issues such as human vulnerability, social responsibility, violence, and human dignity in the 21st century. The Ethics chapter calls for a structural change in education, politics, and social action to reduce inequalities, highlighting empathy, solidarity, and the integration of clinical psychology with personalist bioethics. Drawing on Bachelard, it states that scientific knowledge must overcome obstacles and respond to social needs. A philosophical reflection on the climate crisis is also included, urging an ethical responsibility toward nature.
