The following dialogue with Edgar Morin stresses his anthropological theory which offers a cross-disciplinar view of human identity. This approach becomes essential because of the nature of the object itself, that is a complex synthesis of antithetical elements: nature, culture and society. Putting every single discipline into a deep dialogue between each other Morin works out a theoretical framework which connects different fields of knowledge becoming the only method able to reveal and understand human complexity. This idea of complexity becomes also, in Morin’s thought, a useful keyword to describe contemporary global society, ruled by uncertainty. According to Morin, to survive in this inhospitable condition, umankind must build a planetary consciousness and learn to think itself as the citizenship of a unique planetary mother-country.

Abstract
The following dialogue with Edgar Morin stresses his anthropological theory which offers a cross-disciplinar view of human identity. This approach becomes essential because of the nature of the object itself, that is a complex synthesis of antithetical elements: nature, culture and society. Putting every single discipline into a deep dialogue between each other Morin works out a theoretical framework which connects different fields of knowledge becoming the only method able to reveal and understand human complexity. This idea of complexity becomes also, in Morin’s thought, a useful keyword to describe contemporary global society, ruled by uncertainty. According to Morin, to survive in this inhospitable condition, umankind must build a planetary consciousness and learn to think itself as the citizenship of a unique planetary mother-country.Pubblicazioni consigliate
