dernity have an exclusive and intrinsic relationship with democracy needs to be re-assessed.
The task now is to build a narrative that creates a corresponding policy-making. This will open up the prospect to reconcile what we see as paradoxes among values and among cultures. The Western mindset - focused on rights - and the Eastern mindset - focused on one’s duty to others - will mutually nurture themselves. An integrated geography of thought and action will appear.

But what is important is the change dynamic. How does change happen? Rather than the very naïve notion that anybody can change anybody to become anything – which is absurd – there are processes that over time can begin to sink into a culture and it roll out along different value system lines. That’s what we are doing.
