Civilizational Action And Development Of Modern Societies Between Free Will-

Authors : Belmadi Sofiane . Kadri Hichem .

Abstract

Some communities are independently building their civilizational renaissance while others still in heinous dependency. Differently between being free to build the civilizational destiny in the human world or being prone and vulnerable to determinism that is the view that free will is an illusion, and the defeated party is likely to have colonizability towards the dominant one. Colonizability is a term coined by Malek Bennabi that psychologically means that one’s behavior is governed by internal or external forces over which he has no control. Bennabi is also one of the few original philosophers who have succeeded in making appreciably systematic contributions to civilizational studies, and how societies are to have determined their destiny in the historical circle of civilization. The paper focuses more on Third World countries and communities where dependency, in general, makes an attractive feature of their political, economic, social and cultural existence and impact in world affairs.
