Abstract
Contemporary problems are fragmented by public policies, academic formats, mass-media headlines and market-place interests; unsustainable paradigms of growth, power, wealth, work and freedom are embedded into the cultural, social, political and economic institutions. An ecosystemic approach is posited along the four dimensions of being in the world (intimate, interactive, social and biophysical) to define and deal with the problems of difficult settlement or solution in our times, encompassing culture, education, politics, economics, ethics, environment and the quality of life.
