This work is the result of the Forum 2000 conferences initiated by Vaclav Havel and Elie Wiesel. The book is based mainly on the first five conferences which were held in Prague from 1997. The first essay written by Vaclav Havel deals with spiritual preconditions of the global survival of humankind, and the second one is the quintessence of Havel's views on the world which we have inherited as well as his views on our hopes for the future. The book closes with Havel's personal reflection on the deeper meaning and aim of the Forum 2000 meetings. Subsequent chapters analyze and interpret the ideas that were expressed by the speakers and interlocutors of the first five conferences in which they tried to identify and understand the primary issues facing mankind globally. Reflections deal with the main dimensions of globalization and with their synchronicities as well as asynchronicities based on the quintessences of the annual conference reports.

In this book, scholars and practitioners from both sides of the
divide, Czech and Slovak, as well as experts from the United States
and France, seek to explain why, after the collapse of the
communist regime, Czechoslovakia split into two separate states. In
trying to interpret the causes and processes of a modern state's
peaceful disintegration, the authors, though addressing the subject
from their own viewpoints, have used an analytical, non-evaluative
approach.
