This book is a translation and celebration of Slovenian politician France Büar¿s seminal work. Divided into two parts, the book first contains several studies of Büar¿s arguments. As Büar applied his system theory to a variety of issues, so too the conglomerate of scholars and issues critically assessed is interdisciplinary, ranging from political science and economics, to law and philosophy, as well as to natural sciences. The contributors and the questions of their essays in the edited volume are as follows. Peter Verovsek (University of Sheffield) examines different branches of Critical Theory and classifies Büar within them. Mark Hamilton (Inter-American Defense College) discusses system dynamics of

Büar¿s system theory. Ur¿ka Velikonja (Georgetown University) applies Büar¿s system theory to the question of the ethics, rules, and regulations in financial economics. Finally, Matej Drev (Georgia Institute of Technology) connects Büar to the issue of artificial intelligence and inequality. The second part is the English translation of Büar¿s book At A New Crossroads, which addresses the role of ethics in society. Büar normatively redefines national identity as the crux of his novel understanding of ethics. Using system theory, he addresses the problems of globalization and governance, presenting a post-modern synthesis of the logic of free flow of capital and global citizenship, with national and cultural identity. Speaking to contemporary society, he shows how society and ethical life are reproduced. Büar provides the reader with new tools to think about national identity and global politics. Bringing an important work on ethics, government, and identity to an entirely new readership, this book will appeal to a broad academic audience, namely students and practitioners in the fields of economics, social sciences, and humanities.
