1. Duration Speaker: 15 minutes 2. Topic: “The Ontological Status of Scientific Axioms in COVID-19 Pandemic Management – The Culture Clash between Greece and Japan as Comparative Working Hypothesis” 3. Contents Ensidizable natural orde r: The ascertainment of the ensidizable natural order constitutes the object of scientific praxis and makes scientific knowledge possible. 1st property: Imaginary creations. Scientific axioms are imaginary creations, non logically grounded, but still essential for scientific praxis. The leaning on natural reality: Since science aims to discover the ensidizable order of natural reality which is grasped only via social imaginary, scientific praxis itself bears a distinct social-
historical dimension that embodies a respective instituting imaginary arche. The birth of scientific inquiry by Western rationalistic culture: In terms of public crisis management, a western society reacts through its 'rational mastery', suggesting a direct collision with the public danger, imposing any suppressive measure or restricting strategy possible until the threat is diminished and the common cause secured. Accepting reality "as it is" by Japanese Buddhism: In terms of public crisis management, Japan accepts the imminent danger as the currently existing reality, faced conservatively and indirectly, avoiding extreme measures and without disrupting the usual rhythm of social life.
