So it was that in school as in society, we learned that moral values are as important for the soul as food is for the body. Moral values give a sense of direction to the community and generate norms for each individual member of the society to follow. The problem we face today is not limited to Angola and South Africa. The world in which we live has drastically changed. The Berlin wall fell as a result of a blowing wind.
Hiding places exist no more.
And new contradictions emerge. While new nations celebrate their newly won independence, others celebrate the fact that we live for the first time in human history in a borderless world. This is a different challenge for people who are proud of their particular culture. The one-dimensional borderless world, if it is a promise, is also quite clearly a problem. Because of it, national sovereignty has become problematic.
