What if the root cause of humanity’s greatest challenges isn’t politics or war—but the erosion of human dignity?
Throughout history, conflict has shaped societies, sparked revolutions, and driven innovation. Yet, beneath the surface of wars, geopolitical struggles, and ideological clashes lies a common thread: the neglect of intrinsic human worth. This disregard fuels a recurring pattern known as the Cycle of Conflict, where dignity is eroded, tensions escalate, and relationships—whether between nations, institutions, or individuals—are fractured.
In CONFLICT: Recognizing Human Dignity as a Solution to Humanity’s Greatest Challenges, discover how the principles of dignity can break this destructive cycle and foster transformative growth. Drawing on historical analysis, evolutionary psychology, and philosophical insights, this book reveals:
The concept of “human-degrading conflict” and its profound impact on institutions, workplaces, and personal relationships.The critical role of human dignity in pivotal moments of history, from ancient civilizations to modern geopolitical struggles.How today’s technological advancements, including artificial intelligence and biotechnology, can either erode dignity further or serve as tools for its preservation.
