Summary/Abstract: „Today’s Global Empire is an integrated hyper‑complex system that is very costly to human society. It has reached the limits of its expansion and faces collapse because it tries to solve its problems in the same outdated way: investing in more complexity and expansion. So far its growth has been subsidized by the availability of cheap human and natural resources, as well as a “world currency” that the Global Empire totally controls. A multipolar world and a finite planet make investment in complexity no longer a problem‑solving tool – the costs exceed the benefits”. Ovidiu Hurduzeu, is a Romanian writer and social critic and holds a joint Ph. D. in French and Humanities from Stanford University. He has written several books on social criticism in his native Romanian. Dr Hurduzeu lives in El Dorado Hills, California, with his wife Andreea.
