• Sommario/riassunto: The book at hand is based on a revolutionary truth which is often silenced or ignored: There is a dynamic continuity between the structure of the world and the structure of consciousness. Hence, man is the architect of his history, and political economy is part of the reality that is created by the human being. In ancient Greek mythology, Kairos was the god of opportunity and an inspiring symbol of the method by which man can utilize and restructure reality according to his intentionality. This is the keystone of Kairological Economics, a new theory of economics and management.
