Elisabeth Mann Borgese uses the opportunity to link Giarini's book devoted to the significance of non-monetized values to explain that there is a need for a new "general theory of work": general in the sense that "money values" are not the sole aspect of work and human activity. The general theory of work has to include also nonpaid work as relevant. The relevance of non-paid "work" has to increase by realizing that after the stages of under-development, newly industralizing countries and maturing economies respectively, there has to be a new stage in which not the maximalization of the GNP per citizen, but the optimalization (striking a balance between paid and non-paid work) has to be "the agenda" for mankind living in dignity.

It showed that the trends towards the establishment of zones of peace and nuclear-free zones, on the one hand, and towards the establishment of regional seas programmes for the management of the peaceful uses of the seas and oceans, on the other, are converging towards the common goal of comprehensive or human security.
