Mankind, Economics and Business, a different perspective
Le Hasard et la Nécessite(1970), Jacques Monod (Prix Nobel in physiology or medicine,1965). Everything that exists in the universe is the result of chance and necessity. Pure chance, the only chance, absolute freedom but blind, at the very root of the prodigious evolution, this central notion of modern biology is today the only conceivable, the only compatible with the facts of observation and experience. The old covenant is broken; man finally knows that he is alone in the indifferent vastness of the Universe from which he emerged by chance. Nor is his destiny, his duty is written nowhere.
Albert Camus (Nobel Prize 1957), Myth of Sisyphus and Abroad, there are more things in men to admire than things to despise, itis not the world thatis absurd nor human thought , the absurd arises when the human need to understand meets the unreasonableness of the world. The plague and The revolted man represent the attempt to think of the community without renouncing the absurd, the revolt is a response to the absurd. Meursault is a foreigner, an intruder, an outsider from society since he has nothing to share with her. Sharing is the key verb, sharing with others the same values, finding convergence on fundamental principles. Man and the world can never unite in society, three solutions can be used: unbearable non-belonging to the world, despair that causes the rupture between man and Nature , a divorce based on lies, dodging, reconciling, or the solution of the absurd even when one revolts against him and to maintain lucidly the confrontation between man and world, to live this contradiction, the impossibility of reducing this world to a rational and reasonable principle.
Born in Algiers, I walked by the streets of Camus to go to the Lycée (1959/1962) and used the tramcar of the Foreigner.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin has an active role in the discovery and scientific study of the sinanthrop man and then proposes The Human Phenomenon - Noosphere, Cosmic Christ and Omega Point. Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, Vernadsky's geology and Christian theodicea are unified by Teilhard de Chardin in a holist approach. The human phenomenon must be thought of as a stage of evolution that leads to the deployment of the noosphere that prepares the advent of the cosmic Christ. The Omega point represents the convergence pole of evolution, the cosmic Christ manifests and an era of harmonization of consciousness with the coalescence of the centres: each centre or individual consciousness is brought to enter into ever closer collaboration with the consciences with which it communicates in the long term a noospheric whole. Omegaforms the pole of attraction at play at the individual level as well as on a collective level, the noosphere conceptualizes a film of thought enveloping the Earth formed of human communications, creation is located in an "Alpha point" of time, Man must join God in an "Omega point" of perfect spirituality.
Charles Darwin revolutionized biology with his book The Origin of Species (1859). He adopted the hypothesis that all living species evolved over time from one or a few common ancestors and that this evolution was due to the process of natural selection. In 1854 he resumed work on his theory of species and, in November, realized that the divergence in the character of descendants could be explained by the fact that they adapted "to different situations in the economy of the nature"
Adam Smith is a Scottish philosopher and economist. He remains in history as the father of modern economics whose main work (1776), The Wealth of Nations, is one of the founding texts of economic liberalism. Professor of Moral Philosophy at the University of Glasgow, he devoted ten years of his life to this text which inspired the following great economists, those whom Karl Marx would call the " and which will lay down the main principles of economic liberalism. Smith refers to a "great architect of the universe", to Nature, or to the famous invisible hand, he explains that the wonders of nature arouse the curiosity of men and that superstition is the way more immediate to satisfy it but that in the long run it gives way to more usual and therefore more satisfying explanations than those of the intervention of the gods.

Europa. In the Greek mythology, Europa was a Phoenician princess of Argive origin (Io) after whom the continent Europe has been named. She was abducted by Zeus, the King of Gods, in the form of a snow-white bull with gem-like horns she loved to caress on the beach of Tyr, she climbed on his back and he carried her to Crete human form and mated with her under or an oak tree. This was the abduction of Europa, who later gave birth to three sons of Zeus, Minos, Rhadamanthys and Sarpedon. Europa's earliest literary reference is in the Iliad, which is commonly dated to the 8th century BC.
One century ago, the Sykes-Picot agreements were drawing again the Middle East by Sir Mark Sykes and Fran?ois Georges-Picot.
On May 16, 1916, the Sykes-Picot agreements are signed nearly secretly between British and French cutting the Ottoman Empire in pieces after months of exchange between the French Ambassador in London and the Foreign Office. A century later the region is in a total chaos.
They were secret but discovered at the 1917 October Revolution in Russia by the bolchevics. In spite of the promises made to the Arabs, France and Britain cut the Middle East in parts, a red one, the Mesopotamia goes to Britain, France get the blue zone Liban, Syrian coast and Cilicy. Palestine is internationalized, Jerusalem being a city for the three monotheisms. Independent Arab states managed by the Hachemits are splitted in two zones : France in the north, England in south. The statement Balfour (1917) provides for a Jew National Home. These territory pieces as states have been of a capital importance and totally arbitrary.
The making of the Jew National Home and the antagonism with the Arabic states will generate a cycle of conflicts endlessly. And there is no boundary to separate Kurds from the Arabs. Daech is pushing for new agreements.
