The Inequality Between The World's Individuals Is

The So Called "progress," "time Marching On," Is Not A Straight Line, But A Pendulum.

Once We Realize That The Strangers Are Here Forever And Won't Go Away, Then, Like Husband And Wife In The Old-style Marriage, We Would Try To Find A Way Of Living Together Peacefully And With Mutual Benefit. The Sooner We Understand That In A Globalized World The Diasporic Nature Of Cohabitation Is Never Likely To End, That It Will Always Be With Us, I Believe Such Modus Vivendi Will Be Found.

There Were No "unemployed" In The Impoverished Polish Countryside Before The Second World War. Not A Single Unemployed. Every Child That Was Born In The Peasant Family Had His Room At The Table And His Job In The Field, Stable Or Pigsty... If There Was Not Enough Food, Everybody Got Less. If Food Was Plentiful, Everybody Ate Better. In Such A Setting, We May Say, The Problem Of Security Couldn't Even Arise... One Was Born With Life-long Rights; The Only Thing That One Could Not Do Was To Change Them. A Setting Good On The Side Of Security, Though Bad On The Side Of Freedom.

The Inequality Between The World's Individuals Is Staggering.

'i Am Insecure' Means: I Can't Cope On My Own. The Odds Are Overwhelming. I Can't Resist Them On My Own. I Need Us To Join Forces, Stand Shoulder To Shoulder, March Hand In Hand.
