This book is a translation and celebration of Slovenian politician
France Bucar's seminal work. Divided into two parts, the book first
contains several studies of Bucar's arguments. As Bucar applied his
system theory to a variety of issues, so too the conglomerate of
scholars and issues critically assessed is interdisciplinary,
ranging from political science and economics, to law and
philosophy, as well as to natural sciences. The contributors and
the questions of their essays in the edited volume are as follows.
Peter Verovsek (University of Sheffield) examines different
branches of Critical Theory and classifies Bucar within them. Mark
Hamilton (Inter-American Defense College) discusses system dynamics
of Bucar's system theory. Urska Velikonja (Georgetown University)
applies Bucar's system theory to the question of the ethics, rules,
and regulations in financial economics. Finally, Matej Drev
(Georgia Institute of Technology) connects Bucar to the issue of
artificial intelligence and inequality. The second part is the
English translation of Bucar's book At A New Crossroads, which
addresses the role of ethics in society. Bucar normatively
redefines national identity as the crux of his novel understanding
of ethics. Using system theory, he addresses the problems of
globalization and governance, presenting a post-modern synthesis of
the logic of free flow of capital and global citizenship, with
national and cultural identity. Speaking to contemporary society,
he shows how society and ethical life are reproduced. Bucar
provides the reader with new tools to think about national identity
and global politics. Bringing an important work on ethics,
government, and identity to an entirely new readership, this book
will appeal to a broad academic audience, namely students and
practitioners in the fields of economics, social sciences, and
humanities.
