Αποχωρητήριον ή Αποχαιρετιστήριον

Αποχωρητήριον ή Αποχαιρετιστήριον  by CoPdesign 

As contemporary societies experience a sort of personality split with regard to time - at least, to the moment - with the present of immediate life on one hand and the telepresent of mass communication on the other, surely it would be appropriate to pose the problem of the effect of the temporal regime of human perception on our understanding and thus on our capacities for political expression and decision-making.

Surely the pragmatic nature of parliamentary democracy should incite us to consider not only the diversity of opinion but also the individual's psycho-physiological limits when it comes to interpreting the unexpected, what crops up ex abrupto.
