The war/peace/war appearances of our tragic realities of the 20th and just 21st centuries, and the COVID 19 pandemic appearance of our dramatic realities of the recent last years are ‘aboutness’ issues implying all of us… revealing some of the rational beings’ characteristics, and challenging a holistic approach to ourselves – the humans within our conflictual and competitive communities; communities that have exponentially advanced technological progress within our human-machines complex aggregations, but a stationary or even declining moral status. All these exists after 10 millennia of human societies based on knowledge, but a human so diverse, so surprising emerged, a largely unknown human (beyond dramatic sickness and brilliant genius). ***This SSRN study has four PARTS / 5 (+2) paragraphs] as a still-open creative-frame [implying the (e-)readers], there is the expectancy for cognitive enlargement-contributions – other solutions and (re)presented tensions could (comparatively) step-by-step stand up. This SSRN study has an expected inheritance from a post-Immanuel Kant a priori (e-)spatial-temporality-causality... / Pure Reason – Practical Reason – Judgement –-- and From another slice of post-Adam Smith ‘Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations’ / AND / ‘Theory of Moral Sentiments’... ***This SSRN study is dedicated toDR. Richard L. AMOROSO (USA) – the founder and the director of the Noetic Advanced Studies Institute, a research entity related to the trans and interdisciplinary enlargements of the profound knowledge on our physical and spiritual realms and systems - and –DR.

The complexity of our contemporary reflections on our Consciousness, and on our ICT technical and societal progress are the evident reasons to complete and/or reframe this study by the (e-)readers as well
