Abstract
Salient features of contemporary world are outlined: global, rapidly changing, interdependent and characterized by uncertainties that we currently do not understand. It is shown that the present paradigm is not sustainable and that it keeps the world constantly at the edge of a catastrophe: destruction of our civilization. The necessity of a new global paradigm is emphasized. It is stressed that guiding principles of the new paradigm should be human-centered and humanity-centered.
