"Multi, Inter, Trans-lateralism" and after-postmodern times


     From time to time the associations of countries in the world follow some logic of coalitions that are determined by affinities of objectives by one side, and looking for some kind of strength against real or in some way symbolic “enemies”. But, in after-postmodern times, at same time that all of these factors are in the game, it seems that there are several types of “channels, nets, grids”, alliances following Complexity.
     Complexity Philosophy started in Postmodernity or even in Modern Times; however its application was something distant from reality or strange. Nevertheless, the translogical thinking of after-postmodern times is finding its own space after the weakness of old efficiencies.
     Nowadays the link among countries is not only under multilateralism, but also under “interlateralism” or even a “translateralism”. Transversal connections are crossing nations and building “cross-culturalities” in a similar way to interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity.
