Résumé

Searching for happiness is considered a private matter, individual, and the results of that research are considered to be a consequence: of the individual's fortune, character, or merit. This conception, often, leads to a lack of sense in life and to consider life itself as a reality that does not keep its promises at all. It is rarely believed that the substantial, general, unhappy (despite the level of well-being achieved) is due to causes that transcend the faculties of each individual! Recently, authoritative Marxists, have stated that we are, now, in a utopian period.
Apparently, this seems to be a meaningless statement, but if one considers the impracticability and the "Refoundation" of the societies defined (in the twentieth century) as "of the socialism realized", one can understand the definition of "utopian situation", considering the dialectic conception made by Marx, where history would be a succession of cycles characterized by: thesis, antithesis, and synthesis.
In this case, the thesis would be represented by the period of the proposition of the solution of the "social problem" and the "social question" (even without a proper analysis of historical evolution and its causes) and without the design of a new technique of social organization; the antithesis would be represented by the period of realization of "real socialism" (and, in fact, it is quite difficult to imagine an "antithesis" most opposite); the synthesis is characterized by the improbability and not presentability of new "Gulags" in the face of the consciousness of humanity.
Such is the general view of the historical reality proposed by Marxism. But the hope of a solution to social problems that afflict mankind and they create unhappiness can't be overshadowed by the ideology and from the self-proclaimed "Marxist science", or other ideologies and religious integralism, which resurface in this glimpse of 21st century. Since the goal of humanity is always the same, is essential of achieve an analysis of historical reality based on universally acceptable scientific criteria, and to identify a technique of social organization that can liberate humanity from constraints that force it into the unhappiness of a state of unconsciousness and inertia, determined by a historical evolution that has logic and purpose extraneous to the nature of the individuals.
With our work, we aim to lay the foundations for a new knowledge, capable of achieving a new and higher level of civilizing.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Giano Rocca

Giano Rocca was born in a small village in the Langhe, called Roccaverano, from parents of humble origins. After completing his primary school studies, he moved to Turin, where he attended secondary school and the University, enrolling in the Faculty of Letters and Philosophy. He was a pupil of the political philosopher Norberto Bobbio. He attended school institutions supporting himself with his work, employed by the large local industry, then called "FIAT".
His interests can be summarized in the study of "social" and "human" sciences, although he soon realized that knowledge in these sectors had not yet reached the episteme of science. He was primarily determined to carry out an analysis of history capable of compensating for the gaps and contradictions of current conceptions and, in particular, of Marxist analysis, whose alleged "scientific essence" has been falsified by the anti-communist revolutions that have occurred in the Soviet Union and in the countries of realized Socialism, especially in Eastern Europe.
The published books aim to provide an overall view of the human condition, with particular attention to the historical reality of societies based on statehood, analyzing them in their structural complexity and their historical dynamics, to identify the possible outcome of human evolution itself. He developed the concept of degrees of civilizing, identifying the fifth level of civilizing in the "closed societies", or feudal ones, while in the "open societies", or mercantile ones, he identified the sixth level of civilizing.
The sixth level of civilizing, however, appears neither irreversible, nor automatically a harbinger of further progress, which progress can only come from a metamorphosis, or palingenesis, of the human condition, which undermines the very presuppositions of organic-stratified societies, of to which the societies based on statehood, as a whole, are but the most advanced examples. To accomplish this palingenesis, neither the "class struggle" nor the social and political revolutions are suitable.
It is necessary to rethink, in depth, the causes of the formation of the historical structural reality and, once the remedies have been identified, apply them to individuals and their inter-personal relationships, a premise for overcoming the conflict between individuality and sociality, defined by philosophers as the great "social problem". It is necessary to lay the foundations for the planning and creation of a sociality cons...
