9th WORLD COMPLEXITY SCIENCE ACADEMY (WCSA) CONFERENCE

Dear participants to the IX WCSA Conference, for the first time in its history, WCSA will hold this conference entirely on line.

We are sure that all of you will understand that, due the extraordinary global health emergency, any kind of face-to-face activity would be unfeasible and/or risky. Therefore, we have felt obliged to cancel the meeting in Ischia, no matter how painful this decision could be; it has been so hard to renounce the beauty of the island, as well as the pleasure of meeting each other, but individual and collective health must remain the main goal.

On the other side, WCSA firmly believes in scientific and social progress, and we are so excited to experiment a whole conference on line: all the efforts that we will make to ensure spread of knowledge, swap of ideas and personal acquaintances, will make robust experience for proposing in the next future new smooth and effective patterns for scientific activities, in a spirit of cosmopolitanism and mutual growth among diverse subjects’

GEGNET: A Complex System Vision on Global Governance and Policy Modelling

Gegnet is a German theoretical concept meaning limitless opening to the possible.

The current global economic context of worldwide business and direct foreign investment is comprised of a decreasing number of huge players named Global Players (GP), such as the European Union (EU), the United States (US), the MERCOSUR, the United African Market, along with Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS). It radically redesigns the public policies and their scale about digitalization, intangible asset portfolio creation (e.g. patents, trademarks, licenses, copyrights), taxation, public expenditures, international trade regulations and much more. 

This network of treaties wrapping up our planet is shaping a spiral convergent trend, pushing forward the shift from international to supranational lawmaking through the setting up of a transnational agenda for global governance and policy modelling. 

The key evolutionary challenge and paramount goal of the 9th WCSA Worldwide Conference is to be the host for innovative lawmaking / policy modelling, legislative implementation, institutional redesign, and economic development also by citizenship expansion. We will be working on shaping a triple helix of (1) legislative design, (2) free-trade alignment, and (3) digital standardization.
