Desarrollo humano

A partir de un grupo interdisciplinar de investigación llamado “Desarrollo personal” compuesto por profesores e investigadores universitarios pertenecientes a las Ciencias Sociales, las Humanidades y las Ciencias, hemos fraguado la idea de fomentar una investigación que procure una filosofía cultural del desarrollo humano más avanzada y rica. Este proyecto ya cuenta con empuje en investigaciones que se ha fomentado desde la Unión Europea. Con esta idea comenzamos el primer volumen acerca de la colección titulada “Desarrollo Personal” compuesta por diez capítulos. Queremos profundizar en las condiciones y necesidades naturales del hombre desde un punto de vista interdisciplinar para conseguir “respetar” al hombre como se merece y permitir que este “se desarrolle” según la potencialidad que contiene. El progreso que se defendió desde el Renacimiento para el hombre todavía deber seguir siendo construido y debe beneficiar al hombre y procurarle una sociedad todavía mejor a nivel material, pero sobre todo a nivel espiritual.
