The book is based mainly on the first five conferences which were held in Prague from 1997. The first essay written by Václav 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.GlobalisierunggndInternational organizationfast(OCoLC)fst00977038International cooperationfast(OCoLC)fst00976857Globalizationfast(OCoLC)fst00943532POLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Ideologies / Communism, Post-Communism & SocialismbisacshPOLITICAL SCIENCEGlobalizationbisacshInternational organizationCongressesInternational cooperationCongressesGlobalizationCongressesConference papers and proceedings.Economic policy, Environment, Ethics, Globalization, International cooperation, Religion.GlobalisierungInternational organization.International cooperation.Globalization.POLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Ideologies / Communism, Post-Communism & SocialismPOLITICAL SCIENCEGlobalization.International organizationInternational cooperationGlobalization303.48/2Vrba Tomáš1947-1527637Musil Jiří1928-32493Havel Václav474015Forum 2000.MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910778126903321The View from Prague3770644UNINA
