Abstract

The coronavirus pandemic (Covid 19) will cause momentous changes in world history.

"Let's change road" is the reflection of one of the greatest living philosophers who I had the honor of knowing, on the occasion of the awarding of an honorary degree by our University. The memory of this event is aroused by the reading of Morin's essay, which starts from a short biography: from the changes that occurred in his life to the hope of achieving happiness. A writing that reflects the current condition of the pursuit of happiness by humanity and in particular by the victims of this pandemic, who have been deprived of the last caress.
