Mankind needs this agent today more than ever to do the integrative work which is its nature. The moment it emerges the integration is completed. All diversity questions are resolved. As long as it does not emerge none are solved nor can they ever be solved sustainably without it. We need it today more than ever because of unprecedented diversity challenges during the course of globalization and the unprecedented challenges and antagonisms that come with it. It is the only solution to intercultural hate. And it is because of this hate that we need it and first and foremost because it is the only power in the world that can heal it. Neither science nor technology nor psychology nor philosophy nor in particular intercultural research can provide sustainable solutions, beyond the analysis of the situation from a far too relative and limited vantage point of the mental, psychological approaches alone.
