Abstract

The strong belief into the possibility of a comprehensive harmony lies at the core of the European political thought. A Great Harmony, a perfectly planned world in order to achieve equality, uniformity and control was for centuries the goal of many rationalists. With this purpose in mind, they worked for achieving the final stage of human society, no matter the cost. The underlying assumption is that human nature is immutable, permanent in its essence, everywhere and every time one could look at. Despite historical, cyclical defeats of his practical application, the utopia is always ready to start again, with better tools and more eager to plan the ultimate happiness. This is the challenge of our times, facing the immortal utopia in its effort to impose the final harmony, equality and peace. This time, the idealist planners hope that new tools as powerful computers, digital identity, surveillance cameras and digital currency will make the difference.
