Voices of Sapience

All the world's cultural, political, economic, and environmental wealth can be expressed and radiated more fully in this new context than within the narrow confines of a stifling unipolar space. Thus, multipolarity now appears to be a global emergency, an intellectual obligation to rethink international relations.

The new paradigm of a multi-civilisational world is the prerequisite for a peaceful world, where cooperation transcends rivalries in order to tackle shared global challenges, such as ethnic conflicts within states, economic inequalities, demographic asymmetries, the unequal distribution of resources and threats to biodiversity.

A multipolar world allows civilizations to develop according to their own genius, their own values, their own understanding of the good life. It preserves the diversity of cultures and ways of being that make humanity rich.

What our geopolitical landscape needs is a vision that recognizes multiple visions and strives to reconcile them through cultural rather than purely political innovation. Instead of a “rules-based order” that relies on one dominant source tasked with creating and enforcing the rules, the nations, regions and peoples of the world

The establishment of a durable multipolar global order thus requires the opening of this vast intellectual undertaking of multipolarism. It must be thought through collectively, and Sapience may well provide the ideal platform for this endeavor.

Can our political ideology be so polarised that we stop loving our nation? That’s the difference between a civilisational state and a liberal nation. This multilateral and multipolar world demands fresh thinking, deep relationships and new narratives. A new sustainable economic model is now the need of the day.
