Weltphilosophie

Is the economy and our world, which is united through media-networking, in dire need of a basic philosophy? It seems like it considering the difficulties we face when we try to reach a viable consensus on controversial fundamental questions. But what might such a basic philosophy look like?
Harald Seubert’s book programmatically examines trends of intercultural philosophy, and extracts the basic requirements for a World Philosophy from it, which draw on western and eastern traditions in a non-eclectic way. Notable philosophers from the Orient and Occident, such as Plato, Cusanus, Hegel, Whitehead and Sri Aurobindo, have their say, and the book reflects on different disciplines of philosophical thought, from Natural to Political Philosophy, and the question of a possible consensus on values, to Ontology and the question of God.
