- Abstract
Mankind at the end of the 20th Century and the beginning of the 21st have been marked by the great technological breakthroughs and an accelerated cultural change. On the other hand, it is being tested by violence and cruelty out breaks in various corners of our world. The social welfare states have brought about an out-and-out mercantilism that erases the individual's singularity and deprives many of them of asocial place, thus putting the civilizing contract at risk. New forms of war and genocide have emerged that make us question our possibilities of coexisting and staying alive as a species. Do we have the resources to counteract the grim panorama around us? The genocide occurred in Srebrenica in 1995 and the testimony given by one of the survivors of the massacre help us to reflect on these issues.
