We Live in Post Normal Times

Post normal is a term created by a british philosopher and an argentinian mathematician in a paper about the new con dtions of science. The author quotes scholar zad and sardar when he describes post normal times as characterized by uncertainty, rapid change, realignment of power, upheaval and chaotic behavior. This means moving beyond merely meeting needs and disasters and doing something bolder - building a new social safety net for those in need. A revolution would be necessary to force our civilization back from the edge of catastrophe.
