HOLISTIC APPROACH TO DEVELOPMENT BY APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY IN SOUTHERN COUNTRIES

By Dr. Costantino Faillace

Idealized New World Order

The idea of a new world order is visualised as follows:

Industrialised, rich countries, as well as rich oil-producing countries, in partnership with
developing countries, are expected to promote the creation of the new world order by
financing the necessary infrastructures for helping to promote a more productive world
economy, for improving the ecology of large areas devastated by excessive industrialisation.
They also will be requested to promote better living conditions in developing countries by
investing in productive activities which will help to create jobs thus reducing mass migration
of people from one continent to another in search of better living.

The creation of a new world, in which everybody feels proud to belong, where everybody feels
free and enjoys peace, at the present time appears more like a dream than an event that is
going to take place. It seems, however, quite clear that, for the very survival of the world, the
only option is to change the present trend of violence and bloodshed of useless wars, where
brothers kill their own brothers, with the power of love. Love, in fact, is the only power that
can make the miracle to have peace on earth. Love for the nature, love for the people, love for
the animals, love for all that God has created, will help us to see a brother in each man and a
sister in each woman. But this is a dream, a beautiful dream that can become a reality only
with the conjunctive efforts of everybody, including inspired educators, teachers, economists,
scientists, political leaders, philanthropists, technicians, motivated individuals as well as
organisations, who strongly believe in this new philosophy of world brotherhood and peace,
and work for it.
