Abstract

Capitalist globalization configures a new social order founded on selfish individualism. The free market establishes purposes and meanings of life that do not favor empathic and solidarity experiences among human beings. Throughout history there have been various cultural matrices and ego modeling, which have been determinants for social coexistence. Selfishness exalted by capitalist globalization leads to accumulation and disputes over material wealth. The global technical advance broadens the domain of some economic sectors over the rest of society. The increasing presence of automatons in everyday life causes the displacement of workers, invasion of privacy and the control of the expectations of demographic majorities. It is through the generalized questioning of the civilizing course that new and better perspectives of humanism may emerge in the present century
