Overview

The structure of the book follows these steps: Chapters 1-3 define the problem and analyse the current situation of the world in the perspective of balance and under the conditions of the pandemic and post-corona world. Chapter 1 gives few first flashes on the pandemic and raises ethical questions. Chapter 2 defines what is Globalance in ethical perspective. Chapter 3 analyses the ideological polarization and the political and technological Superpower structures. Chapter 4 examines options and philosophical and religious concepts of Globalance throughout history and contemporary authors. Chapter 5 is then the normative core by examination of values and virtues and their relationality for values-balance. Chapter 6 looks at processes of transformation towards Globalance. Chapter 7 analyses and validates thirty applied domains of Globalance. Each of the thirty chapters includes the three steps of seeing by analysis ('current development'), judging by ethical orientation ('value-poles') and acting by concretisation ('towards Globalance'). This chapter is the most important chapter and represents half of the book. The goal is not an extended monograph for single topics, but rather to show the relationality and interdependence of all sectors of society and all continents in todays globalised world. After the marathon of chapter 7 with its thirty topics, Chapter 8 invites to sit down, takes distance and reflect on fundamentals in a spiritual way: what is at the end what counts in this world? Death, life and love. The Outlook in chapter 9 draws some conclusions on the tasks for transformation towards a balanced post-corona world order. I started writing this book after the election of the polarizing American President Trump end of 2016. I finish it on 15 June 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic, in community with all those who look for a post-corona balanced human world.
