Concepts in the Context of Science-Fiction, Cold War History and Contemporary Geo-Politics

The Paradigm Shift: areas where multinational corporations (MNCs) or state-owned enterprises (SOEs) produce, operate, and invest; how the specific issues affect a target community; as well as why governments are adapting to strategy in the global context. From a futurist perspective, the application of strategic foresight techniques promotes a new way of thinking — a rethink, if you will — for how organizations are operating globally; therefore, my writings seek to encourage Concept Development. That’s why this publication envisions a world through the lens of global commodities and Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) frameworks, with the purpose to ascertain and explain international outcomes. There also featured writers discussing the digital economy and regulatory changes. Welcome.

ISAAC ASIMOV — FOUNDATION, 1951 — FOUNDATION AND EMPIRE, 1952 — SECOND FOUNDATION, 1953

In many ways as an action science-fiction trilogy, it is very interesting and fascinating. It reads like sweet lemonade though it contains no emotions at all, no feelings, no real love, no nothing humane. It is the most dehumanized science-fiction I know and at this level, it competes with Lafayette Ronald Hubbard who is by far oriented on more warlike situations, machines or robots fostering substitutes, or mechanical soldiers and torturers having no taste or distaste for blood and thus, are able to cut a prisoner into small cubes for aperitifs. Asimov is definitely more human but in no way humanistic or humane. He is a cold frozen vision of a future that will never ever be able to even be born. With this limitation in mind, you can get into it and enjoy the developments, the U-turn dramas, and the Z-slithering-slaloming direct non-straight lines of intrigue and plot. I will give a global comment now on the project of these three novels.
