Abstract
I would like to make three main points in this chapter. First, although the world is shrinking in some ways, it is not becoming homogeneous. Second, the profession of arms and the life of the mind are not incompatible, and sometimes coexist in the same individual. Third, challenges, old and new, require the closest possible cooperation among all elements of societies that wish to remain humane and uphold the values of human dignity and personal freedom.
