Eduction for World Unity

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Global interdependence is inexorably increasing and accelerating beyond all expectations. The changes occur the fastest in the field of technology and economics, more slowly in terms of political and legal reactions, at an even more reduced pace in respect to education and public opinion, and the slowest with regard to social norms and ethnic attitudes. Owing to such unequal developments, more and more people live in a state of uncertainty, since they have to cope with considerable value clashes and with growing anonymity and incalculable complexity. Global education really becomes a question of survival, since future problems cannot be solved by cultural traditions and national stereotypes, demanding new international perceptions, multicultural concepts, and a different identity.
