5 - Future Projections and Basic Principles of a New Order of Inclusive Governance: The Five I’s

Summary

Looking at the general trend, we are walking towards the possibility of three different futures. The first possibility is a state of global chaos, the second possibility is a global autocracy and the third scenario is global democracy, could be the product of the motivational will of policy-makers, politicians, thinkers and opinion leaders with the backing of society, based on the centuries-long and bitter experiences of humankind and bestowed with the participatory virtues of shared values.

What we need to do is release ourselves from the psychology of pessimism, establish a healthy balance between a normativism attached to reality and a realism that takes values into account, and then to create a new projection of order within the harmony of this balance.

In order to elicit a new order’s doctrinal basis, one needs to define the fundamental principles that will constitute the intellectual substructure for international, regional and national-scale endeavors and guide practical applications.

In this framework in the fifth section, the principles of a vision for a new order are discussed and analyses the five principles of inclusive governance; inclusiveness, internal consistency, interest optimization, implementation of power structure and institutionalization.
