Abstract

This study covers various disciplines that establish the necessary conversation to demonstrate the interdependence of everyone and everything that live on the planet, and thus, is constituted in its universality. This proposal takes as its core the theory of autopoiesis systems, gravitating around law, quantum physics, theology, philosophy of language and metaphysics, in the search for an element so that, being original and common to everyone, could justify the intent to contribute to a paradigm shift in law and society, abandoning the anthropocentric perspective in favor of affirmative polycentric biopolitics. In that way, it could be possible to achieve enough momentum to overcome the ecological crisis in which the world is currently plagued by. For the successful implementation of these proposals, one needs to recall the invocation of the Law of Universal Fraternity, that prevails regardless of legal enforcement and becomes immanent throughout the entire legal system by the practice of the action of loving—this action being rather natural to everything that is contained in its universality, including the Earth itself under the laws of relativistic quantum physics. Most of all, it includes the perception that love is an expression of how humanity can engage with itself as a person, the community and all other members of the Earth.
