Starting Points for the Reflection on the Communication in a Global Era from Gregory Bateson’s Theory
Right in the era of communication there is a risk that by abusing the word, we would paradoxically reach a non communicative situation. Gregory Bateson reveals this risk and several others in his writings, suggesting some ways to avoid them. These ways include an economy of communication and flexibility, through which to harmonize in a relational framework, elements such as word, thought and feeling on the one hand, and fidelity to the past, flexibility and openness to the future on the other hand. He also proposes some aspects of an educational model to cope with these challenges.
