Dr. Jacques Attali’s Keynote Speech 4/4; Create a “Positive Society”

An online international symposium titled “European Intelligence” Jacques Attali, in the era of COVID-19, was co-sponsored by JICA, the Council for Construction Project Delivery System (CPDS), and the Forum for the Future of the Environment (FEF). “Understanding the city, people, and the world”” was held on the evening of 28th September. This was the first attempt for our organization to use Zoom Webinar, but the interest far exceeded our initial expectations, and the final number of applications for participation reached 4,200. Thank you very much for your application and participation.

Dr. Jacques Attali’s keynote speech was excellent based on his new book “The Economy of Life – A New World Begins After the Pandemic” (President Publishing), which was released on October 15th. Dr. Attali says that we should learn lessons from the crisis, and argues that the “economy of life” will become important in an era when superpowers are absent and IT companies such as GAFA take over the hegemony. I was encouraged by Dr. Attali’s powerful message that we should aim for a positive society by being altruistic towards future generations.

In the latter half of the panel discussion, in addition to Dr. Attali, Professor Kazunari Uchida of Waseda University Business School, Kengo Kuma, an architect and special professor of the University of Tokyo, and Seiichiro Yonekura, a specially appointed professor of Hitotsubashi University Graduate School, participated in the panel discussion. I did. Koichi Uemura, the vice chairman of our organization, acted as moderator. In the first half, we talked about new homes, offices, and work styles in the COVID-19 crisis, and in the second half, we talked about the world situation and the global economy on a larger scale. The panel discussion was so hot that one hour was not enough. Details will be compiled later and will be published along with the editing on the day.

We believe that the altruism advocated by Mr. Atari is an essential element in promoting the public-private partnership = PPP that we are working on. We will contribute to the formation of a positive society by utilizing the knowledge gained through this symposium in the formation of future PPP projects.

　当機構と一般社団法人建設プロジェクト運営方式協議会（CPDS）、一般社団法人環境未来フォーラム（FEF）の3法人共催で、オンライン国際シンポジウム「“欧州の知性”ジャック・アタリ氏、ウィズ・コロナ時代の“街・人・世界”を読み解く」を9月28日夕刻に開催しました。Zoom Webinarを使用した当機構としても初めての試みでしたが、当初の予想をはるかに上回るご関心をお寄せ頂き、最終的な参加申込人数は4,200名に達しました。お申込み、ご参加頂きましたみなさま、誠にありがとうございます。

　ジャック・アタリ氏の基調講演は10月15日発売の新著『命の経済～パンデミック後、新しい世界が始まる』（プレジデント社）をベースとした素晴らしい内容でした。アタリ氏は危機から教訓を見出すべきと語り、超大国が不在となりGAFA等のIT企業が覇権を握る時代に「命の経済」が重要になると説きます。将来世代に対して利他的になることでポジティブな社会をめざすべきだというアタリ氏の力強いメッセージに勇気づけられました。

　後半のパネルディスカッションでは、アタリ氏に加え早稲田大学ビジネススクール教授の内田和成先生、建築家で東京大学特別教授の隈研吾先生及び一橋大学大学院特任教授の米倉誠一郎先生が参加してパネルディスカッションを行いました。当機構副会長の植村公一がモデレーターを務め、前半はコロナ禍における新しい住まい・オフィス・働き方について、後半はより大きなスケールで世界情勢や世界経済について語り合いました。パネルディスカッションは1時間では物足りないほど熱い議論が展開されました。詳細は追って取りまとめ、当日の編集とあわせ公開したいと考えております。

　当機構が取り組む官民連携＝PPPを進めるうえで、アタリ氏が提唱する利他主義は不可欠な要素であると考えます。このたびのシンポジウムを通じて得られた知見を今後のPPP案件形成にも活かして、ポジティブな社会の形成に貢献してまいります。
