Crisis transformation | a game theory perspective

In social sciences, game theory (originally used in mathematics) has become a fundamental tool for understanding and transforming human dynamics in the context of uncertainty. This approach invites us to see interactions not only as confrontations between opposing interests but as opportunities to build agreements that benefit all parties involved. In times of social transformation, this perspective acquires special relevance…

AI and Cooperation

Social media recommendation algorithms, often criticized for their interest in generating more visibility and engagement by fostering division and radicalization, hold a unexplored potential: they could steer digital discourse in a more constructive and cooperative direction (without losing their focus of interest; generating visibility and engagement).

Progress in the right direction: global cooperation

Unfortunately, in recent months we have heard many governments of countries, among them: China, Russia, Germany, France, England, Nordic and Baltic countries etc..., say that they will again increase the “defense” budget and arm their armies to be prepared for war.

Freedom and the responsibility that comes with it

Today I want to talk to you about a subject deeply manifested in the soul of humanity: freedom. The interesting thing about freedom is that it is both a universal and personal concept, a right for which generations have “fought” and continue to “fight”. There are many remarkable examples of the “struggle” for freedom in human history, but today I…
