No hace tantos años en la historia, otra trilogía, Capital, Mano de obra y Tierra, dio origen a una nueva organización territorial de la población y a una visión social del trabajo fabril en el mundo occidental, y determino las corrientes diferenciadas de pensamiento economico que dividieron en dos al mundo durante muchos años. Hemos superado los instrumentos tecnologicos de aquel debate, pero no sus realidades ni sus mentalidades. El tema central sobre el modelode sociedad al que aspiramos para el futuro sigue estando abierto. Necesitamosreferencia para crear los espacios futuros, mitad utopia mitad necesidad, quenos situen mentalmente en un nuevo camino que, aunque difuso, nos aporte unadeterminada direccion orientadora. El cambio se precipita cuando la utopia sehace necesidad, y cuando las posiciones vigentes dejan de ser validas. Este libro se ocupa de reflejar tendencias y de hacer propuestas para quienes estan en los dificiles ejercicios de visionar el futuro, tareas cada vez mas distribuidas en los responsables politicos, religiosos, empresariales, de organizaciones diversas, todos ellos necesitados de progresar primero mentalmente y luegoen la praxis decisional en un espacio lleno de incertidumbres y oportunidades.Al contrario de concebir la sociedad economica sobre un conjunto de atributosde las cosas: a tierra, el capital y la mano de obra (el esfuerzo manual), nos volvemos sobre el individuo incorporando su talento, sus capacidades operativas expresadas en la tecnologia y su tiempo de calidad de vida como los nuevosfactores del desarrollo de los colectivos humanos. Regresamos a un nuevo renacimiento del valor de la persona como individuo creativo, capaz de proyectar sus capacidades y de encauzar su destino una vez superada la capacidad de construir y poseer objetos. Sobrepasada la sociedad que consume, abrimos las puertas a la sociedad que piensa sintiendo. INDICE RESUMIDO: Prologo de Eudald Carbonell. ?Por que hablamos de talento?
