Light in the City, a Vector of Social Cohesion?

edited by Zorica Matic

Each culture is a door that opens onto the universal. Light is a uni­versal language. As a source of life, beauty, and wonder, it transcends all cultural particularism. It is a source of inspiration for artists, philoso­phers, and researchers, it has always been a factor of political, economic and social development, and nowadays its role is growing.

Light is also knowledge. A complex question in the history of sci­ence, the origin of many artistic revolutions, and finally the soil of all spirituality, it is modulated according to our education, our beliefs, and our origins. And since our similarity is based on our differences, it is precisely from the crossing of opposing forces that the social bond will be born.

  • This book is the first publication of the International Day of Light.
  • It is published with the support of UNESCO.
  • Original title: Lumière dans la Cité, vecteur de cohésion sociale?
  • Translated from French by Isabelle Arnaud.
