The answer is simple: freedom from the control of the colonial countries that still dominate the world, especially the backward countries, even if the control is indirect.

Therefore, countries must liberate themselves from direct or indirect economic dependency on developed countries, especially Western European countries and the United States of America.

It must work to develop its economy in a way that serves society, not the ruling class.

Dear Prof Ali

It is commendable reply.

Every sentence has defined the action plan for the Nation. A bold economic reforms to bring back the country on development path.

A culture of mutual recognition and cooperation in all sectors will accelerate the well being of all the people.

Concept of one Earth and one Family to be recognised…………

Hello,

Your question is so thought-provoking! Thanks for providing us with the opportunity to express our ideas on such an important and sensitive issue .

Researchers can contribute to addressing global challenges like hunger, healthcare, and education by conducting innovative studies, analyzing data, and advocating for policies. Collaborating with various stakeholders, they can develop technology-driven solutions, promote ethical practices, and raise public awareness. Ensuring long-term sustainability and global partnerships are vital, as researchers work alongside communities to create lasting change in these crucial areas.

Regards,

Michael

Dear Prof Michail

I am delighted to know your confidence in our researchers who can cross all national boundaries in resolving potential global problems. Since 1800s, researchers delivered wonders to mankind. Looking forward again their action in resolving these issues.

We believe in “One Earth One Family“,

Dear S U M Rao

You have focussed on a highly relevant problem. In a knowledge-based digital network society and economy, which is more or less based on a state-, market- or individual capitalist order - in various forms - scientists are confronted with a whole range of limited, difficult circumstances in order to come up with a language of enlightenment for a humane, just and sustainable world society.

In order for an international interdisciplinary scientific community to become a relevant, serious impact factor, several hurdles would have to be overcome. The attribution ‘science’ is actually just a euphemism. Internationally or supranationally, science has no democratically legitimized leadership or a center that can take an ex catheda position on behalf of the researchers it represents. In other words, the group would have to organise itself. Unfortunately, I fear that many of them would not share your legitimate concern because they are pursuing other power-political, economic or particular interests. The results of science and technology research show how difficult such an initiative is at local or national level, and how much more difficult it is on a global scale.

Let us assume that respected researchers with different disciplinary knowledge come together and try to form a group of scientists. Even if - hypothetically speaking - they succeed in agreeing on a common manifesto, they could run the risk of structural failure when they begin to advocate their position in (world) society. Critics will be tempted to accuse the scientists involved of "lobbying" and "activism". The line here can quickly become very thin. Ultimately, this research community must not be allowed to lose its reputation, as this is what gives it credibility in the scientific system and beyond.

Dear Prof Christian Filk,

I would like to thank you for spending time in explaining the complex global situation.

We had never before the following:

1. Highly informed global society due to information technology.

2. Importance to knowledge sharing.

3. Interdependency requirement of all nations.

4. Importance to cooperation at all levels ie bilateral, regional and global.

5. Importance to “One Earth One Family “ concept.

With above in mind, Researchers can deliver wonder solutions to various problems ………..

Dear S U M Rao

Thank you very much for your reply and comments. I agree that - in terms of potentials and options - informed scientists and committed citizens of the world should actually consistently advocate the concept of "One Earth - One Family". But we don't have a problem of knowledge, we have a problem of realisation. I believe we need to reflect self-critically on why the impact factor of initiatives such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the Club of Rome or Scientists for Future remains restricted compared to the major challenges. Among other things, it points to the systemic limitations of the public understanding of science and technology.

Dear Scientist Rao,

Thank you for this interesting question.

I am trying to answer you from the knowledge that I have acquired about the human society.

I believe it from the core of my heart that the earth has given enough to satisfy everyone's need, but not everyone's greed. This was once said by a man who is forgotten and disrespected in today's era of religious fundamentalism. That man was Mahatma Gandhi.

Therefore, the problems that you have mentioned in the question, were not created by nature. These were created by man. So, these can only be solved by man. In your question, you have talked about researchers. How much power does a researcher or a scientist or a scholar or a teacher or a professor have? The obvious answer is 'zero'. Therefore, researchers cannot solve these problems. These problems can only be solved by our political leadership. The question is that, will they ever do that.

Best regards,

Anamitra.

Dear Prof Anamitra

I am sure your following exclusive answer will be welcomed by all:

“the earth has given enough to satisfy everyone's need, but not everyone's greed”

As we all know, over the centuries kingdom(s) concept slowly switching over to democratic system of functioning across the globe. Since last century, reasonable development happened in Agriculture, Medical system and Education system.

Hope with time good sense prevails among political leaders and resolve this basic issues and respect Mother Earth.

Looking forward more answers ………

S U M Rao

Dear Scientist Rao,

Thank you for your reply.

It is true that there has been reasonable development in Agriculture, Medical system and Education System. But, most of the time it can be seen that the current day 'rulers' don't come from such backgrounds. That is why, we have countries in the world where there is more excitement about an upcoming temple rather than an upcoming university. Unfortunately, we have created a world where muscle power is more dominant than knowledge power. So, we have pseudo democracies and not democracies.

Best regards,

Anamitra.

True Dear Professor.

Society will have to go through this phase also.

I am sure this basic issues will resolve with time unless major global natural disaster happens …..

with my sincere wishes

All ResearchGate Members who are interacting on this Question:

#🌎🌎🌍🌍🌏🌏#

We had never before the following:

*Highly informed global society due to information technology,

*Importance to knowledge sharing,

*Interdependency requirement of all,

*Importance to cooperation at all levels.

Please remember “Mother Earth” has given enough to satisfy everyone's need, but not everyone's greed.

Let us believe, we have one life hence contribute towards humanity and develop a new concept “One Earth and One Family”.

Wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year.
