Resolutique
Origin: Lat. resolutĭo, -ōnis
A range of possible solutions to the deteriorating global outlook. Suggests an agenda of restorative actions and policies that run all the way from promoting recycling and energy efficiency to reconstituting the Western Industrial worldview. Hence, its breadth renders it more a concept than a practical strategy. The Union of International Associations coined "world resolutique" in order "to connote a coherent, comprehensive and simultaneous attack to resolve as many as possible of the diverse elements of the problematique, or at least to point out tracks to solutions and more effective strategies. By resolutique, we do not suggest a grand attack on the totality of the problematique in all its diversity. This would be impossible. Our proposal is rather a simultaneous attack on its main elements with, in every case, careful consideration of reciprocal impact from each of the others".
