In this article I discuss the problem of how we can change our world into a wiser world that is driven by a culture of wisdom inquiry (CWI), i.e., a world that frees humanity from a looming totalitarian catastrophe. How best can we interrogate the traditional wisdom of culture (TWC) that is responsible for the academic institutions of learning, among other kinds of institutions, dogmatically and solely aiming at the acquisition of knowledge and technological prowess (technologisches koennen), instead of the promotion of wisdom and human well-being? What kind of strategic transformations of institutional design, policy and goals within diverse institutions, particularly academic institutions of learning, regionally and globally, are imperative? This paper argues from the principle of universal interconnectedness across nature/universe and the fundamental asymmetry of human well-being interests and nature’s well-being interests. From this, the development of a culture of wisdom inquiry as an overarching (allumfassend) methodology of institutional change from within at two levels of analysis is proposed, viz., (1) at the level of the ecological–economic analysis of safeguarding nature’s abundant ecosystems from human greed; and (2) at the level of the transformation of the educational, academic and political–economic institutions, as well as international institutions, that must be dedicated to human well-being.

传统文化智慧的转变:智慧文化驱动下向智慧世界的可能过渡

在这篇文章中,我讨论了如何将我们的世界变成一个更智慧的世界的问题这是由智慧探究文化 (CWI) 驱动的,即一个将人类从迫在眉睫的极权主义灾难中解放出来的世界。我们怎样才能最好地审问负责学术机构的传统文化智慧 (TWC),在其他类型的机构中,教条地和完全旨在获得知识和技术实力 (technologisches koennen),而不是促进智慧和人类福祉?不同机构,尤其是学术机构,在区域和全球范围内,必须对机构设计、政策和目标进行什么样的战略转型?本文从跨越自然/宇宙的普遍互联原则和人类福祉利益与自然福祉利益的根本不对称性出发进行论证。智慧探究文化作为一种从内部进行的制度变革的总体(allumfassend)方法论,提出了两个层次的分析,即,(1)在保护大自然丰富的生态系统免受人类贪婪的生态经济分析的层次上;(2)在教育,学术转型的水平政治经济制度,以及国际机构,必须致力于人类福祉。
