Less competition, more cooperation: utopia?

When someone writes about a world with "less competition and more cooperation", we can quickly hear negative commentaries of "dreams" of famous artists and politicians that had or have that kind if "illusion" and that  it is not possible a good international economy without a strong competiton.

We don't want deny that the quality of products can improve if someone needs to make something better than other "competitors".

But there is a key tool that can give a differenciated mesure and conduction on the competitoon: Ethics.

If Ethics is ever ahead of any circunstance, it is a good beginning of more cooperation.

Ethics in a large meaning of the word, including aspects directly correlated to the competitors, but also aspects of respect to human beings, to animals, to nature.
