  • If Aristotle and Confucius were able to come together to talk about globalization today, could they ultimately resolve some of its most pressing challenges? This dialogue imagines the two philosophers debating and determining the ways models of democracy and governance need to evolve.
    Ban Ki-moon, 8th Secretary General of the United Nations; Chair, Ban Ki-moon Foundation for a Better Future
    Jeffrey Sachs, Director, Center for Sustainable Development, Columbia University
    Moderated by Roger Cohen, Paris Bureau Chief, The New York Times and Host of the Athens Democracy Forum

    Confucious had always regarded fairness as a cornerstone of his philosiphy...afterall where can there be ANY relationship without this fairness. Politeness, courtesy, which are Confucian values, demands a sense of FAIRNESS in an exchange of views!!!

      Bang Ki Moon is unfit to talk about Confucionism because he does not practised Confucionism. His pro-West stand totally goes against Confucion beliefs on Fair-play and the possesion of having virtue.
      Maybe because he is Korean he cannot understand Mandarin Classics in which Confucionism Philosophy is written.
      The Organisers are so Anti-China that they cannot bring in a Chinese scholar to represent Confucious!
      This shows how "objective" they are about solving World issues! It was all a show to protray a pro-Western ideology and even then they failed....because Jeffery Sachs was the only person, the true leader, there who was determined to send a true message to the World.

      Stop dreaming, Mo. American could never have a person of Sachs’ calibre as President. Even if he was able to negotiate the toxicity of the system to get through suspect primaries and was miraculously elected President by a thoughtful and mature electorate (which does not exist), he would be destroyed by the oligarchs and sycophantic media within hours of being inaugurated. Failing that, he would butt up against a sea of indifferent puke they call congress.
      A case in point - Obama. Comes in on a white horse, wearing shiny armour. He is like manna from heaven, and definitely promises to solve all the world riddles quickly and efficiently. The regard for this person is so high, they anoint him with a Nobel prize for peace, in anticipation of future saintly deeds. What actually happens is history. He turns out to be just another figurehead, falling in line with the established norms. He lets down his race, his country and the rest of the world. Sure, he shoots baskets and eats apple pie, but he also becomes expert in shooting death-dealing drones, and eating up other people’s security and economies.

      Jim, by morphing your words into action you’ve just created a GROUP- with THE RIGHT THINKING, RIGHT TOUCH.
      In that group though, there won’t be one single Jeff Sachs.
      He’s not striving, he’s not on the way to become somebody else, who he admires.
      He sees the world lacks respect, so he gifts the world with respect.
      He sees the world lacking the honesty, so he finds the guts to be honest.
      It’s as simple as that, and as blue as that.

      Of course there is a difference between the American surveillance "democracy" and the Chinese surveillance state. One state uses surveillance to keep not only its own population down but even the rest of the world, whereas the other uses surveillance to help improve its people's lives. Ask yourself, who spied on Julian Assange while he was held up in the Ecuadorian embassy and who spied on Angela Merkel while she was in office?
      Meanwhile, China is using surveillance on its veggie fields to help its farmers spray less pesticide in a more targeted manner in order to raise more and better quality crops or it is using its surveillance to warn people to temporarily leave their homes to avoid conflict with an adventurous elephant family that is strolling around stealing booze in the area of Kunming.
