The Common Good. by philoedu(m): 12:07pm On Feb 20, 2019
The notion of common good can provide what one may called the touchstone of domestic program with hopeful and realistic favorable economic condition without resulting to any excessive consumption more than we can produce. In this perspective, there is a need for a vision that may assist to reshape the public opinion in this direction. Such vision is necessary in a decaying society like ours today to project the kind of a future envisaged for the coming generation in order to govern effectively.

Coherent and inclusive visions, with public philosophy that may provide the means of adequate understanding that sympathize with the aim and objective of the governance, because the vision acts as a power to govern. This is true when measured and persuasively advocated with a strong sense of public good, not with the intent to legitimize in pursuit of self-interest in the form of large scale private acquisitiveness with continues eulogizing, with the result of large scale permissiveness and repression.

It this perspective, a long term and viable foundation can be laid with significant structural reform as oppose to what one might called the technocratic fine-turning system that often fail to address the issue of the common good. Because in the face of the current challenges and in what looks like intractable problems of various kind, there is the need to look out for a new opportunities in our mind of what is appropriate to ask as to whether it is time to have a change of direction, an opening and restructuring.

Of course, the current problems are of peculiar nature and have to be treated as such. The theme-“common good “when effectively represented in word and action, no doubt, could breathe fresh air into our mind-(sense of inclusiveness)-that we all expect that would allow us to consider our problems in a new way.However, there seems to be two ways in what looks like a double – barreled weakness in the present predicament and they are centered in the economy and position which is to remind our fellow citizens in clear terms, of the need for a common commitment and standard for the sake of posterity.

[b][/b] The same is true that, this can be done, by recalling our common history and record of our achievement, and why not, our failure and defeat. It can be done best in schools and conferences, encouraging citizens to actively join with others to positively generate a vigorous debate, towards an inclusive democratic climate as a catalyst for a significant and enduring positive change. Currently, there is overwhelming demand for a more broaden focus on common good that required a new vision for public deliberation that also serve as public awareness gear toward a radical reform to reshape our democratic culture .
