This article explores how fearism, an emerging philosophy can be used to address different fear challenges that have engulfed societies in contemporary times. The discourse focuses on three broad areas of human existential engagement where fear has severely distorted good human relationships and suggested fearological methodologies towards managing them. The focus areas include transculturalism, transdisciplinarity and Transhumani sm. Research on these areas shows that fear has almost created double walls and boundaries among people of different cultural backgrounds and ideologies. This new world of binary oppositions is, therefore, a threat, not only to contemporary society, but to envisioned postmodern communities where technology is assumed to have overtaken most social roles. The article argues that transculturalism studies can help in rebuilding the proper hu man relationship broken by the negative misconception of people about other people'scultures, occasioned by lack of knowledge. The research also recommends fearological education and the study of the integral parts of different fear constructs as well as proper use of fear management method(s) in addressing the fear-based challenges in the contemporary. Such knowledge will impede fear challenges in posthuman societies-usually characterized by increased scientific invention and production of dangerous technologies, chemical sand other deadly substances in the name of development.
