Ongoing demographic changes, the globalization of the world economy, the rapid digitization and robotization of our society, climate change, the failed aspiration (for now) for a shared ethic: these are the megatrends that challenge our peace today, our Planet, and humanity first and foremost.
If we are to succeed in addressing and riding them for the Common Good, as well as for our own personal benefit, we need to seek a new truth, to contact deeper states of consciousness, to embody a new and deeper awareness, and to produce a common effort to work together in pursuit of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) canonized by the United Nations and the protection of basic human rights.
The circular economy is just, equitable and redistributive: a gift economy. However, it moves in a flat, two-dimensional dimension, which is as necessary today as it is urgent, but will not be sufficient tomorrow. The economic principle of circularity, having reached its maturity, must evolve into a more articulated paradigm, moving from the two dimensions of circularity to the three dimensions of sphericity.
The Spherical Economy thus calls for the need to reaffirm the centrality of the human being within every economic process, making him aware of this role as well as of the responsibility that comes with it, toward a new state of consciousness that guides his every day actions.
