Racjonalność egzystencjalna świata w XXI wieku – wyzwania dla ekonomii i polityki

Abstract

Global existential rationalty is a civilizational mega trend as lack of equality and disproportion of development might lead to global turbulences. There comes the question about global rationality conditioning. The paper draws attention to a selected number of issues, which may create a field for further discussion. It consists of three substantive parts. The first concerns the change in the geopolitical situation of the world. The second has been devoted to the problem of development disproportions in the world. The last section analyses three issues relevant to the topic discussed: the role of the institutions in the global world, the problem of the world economic leadership, as well as the shortage of theoretical economy in the fields such as definition of problems of the less developed countries and also global changes.
