Club of Rome Frames Development as One Part of Complex Interdependent System
July 10, 2003
The Club of Rome is a global think tank, bringing together scientists, economists, businessmen, international high civil servants, heads of state and former heads of state from all five continents. The Club of Rome acts as a global catalyst of change, free of any political, ideological or business interest.
The Club of Rome contributes to the solution of what it calls the world problematique, the complex set of the most crucial problems - political, social, economic, technological, environmental, psychological and cultural - facing humanity.
It does so taking a global, long term and interdisciplinary perspective, aware of the increasing interdependence of nations and the globalisation of problems that pose predicaments beyond the capacity of individual countries.
