Description / Abstract
Charles Handy, a London-based author and broadcaster, explains the importance of intelligence in his international bestseller, The Age of Paradox. Handy asserts that wealth was once measured in land and material possessions, but the new form of wealth or property is intelligence (19). Handy continues, “Singapore, which calls itself The Intelligent Island, recognizes that the traditional sources of wealth and comparative advantage—land, raw materials, money, and technology—can all be bought when and if needed, provided one has the people with the intelligence and the know-how to apply them” (20). What Handy has identified is a global trend towards a knowledge-based economy within a technological age of information and communication technologies. For a long time, corporate chairmen have been saying that their real assets are their employees, but few of them really mean it. According to Handy, that may be about to change. The means of production are now literally owned by the workers, because those means exist in their heads and at their fingertips (18). The crucial key to future wealth is education (19). Charles Handy is not the only person to recognize the importance of intelligence and education within the global passage to a new paradigm based on knowledge. The intention of this paper is to explicate how the European Union is moving to meet the challenges of this new knowledge paradigm through the Lisbon Agenda and the Bologna Process and to analyze the implications these agendas have for European Nazarene College.
