This paper intends to contribute for the reframe and reconceptualization of the key global changes and to sketch key guidelines to redesign the most advanced world order policy modelling, rethinking the concepts of individual, organization and life, from the point of view of general science of complex system. Then, at first, the text aims to analyze how western civilization has been profoundly and irrevocably changed by the Holocaust. After, the text presents four comments or theses on the paradoxical dilemmas emerging from allthe foregoing reflections on the Holocaust and, then, lists some trends of man and society in calamity situations.
