A New Checks And Balances

I had an article published this morning, by the Philosophical Society of England's sister publication Pi: An Information Society: A Proposal For a New Checks and Balances. The information society is something new in our time, and paradoxically evidences a want of information, above all as this applies to ethics. It is well established that this is the root cause of various ills -- and all the more so in my home country South Africa, which I briefly refer to in the article. OBSERVATION: In fact, a lot of what we do does not have a firm philosophical basis today. This is one example. Another is environmental protection.
