[…] expresses the need of our time, where human, threatened by scientific progress which he is the author, wants to build a new humanism which is, at the same time, its own measure and that of the cosmos.. Some defenders of the French idea as Stelio Farandjis have also seen in la francophonie the crucible of undialogue of cultures ranging up to create a specific terminology (arabofrancophonie).
