| Metamorphosis of Capitalism: from Consumption/Growth Obsession to Conscious Systems That Serve All Life [Story] |

Monday, 14 May 2012 04:17
| Let us face it: the society that we have built is not working for us humans, and much less for the rest of life on this planet. What we are facing at this time is NOT a management problem - it is a design problem. Our institutions, organizations and systems that brought us so much prosperity in the 20th century are in crises because we have failed to design them with the same co-creative, symbiotic, life-giving elegance seen in the rest of nature. Our many social and environmental ills – unemployment, hunger, endless wars, environmental degradation, species extinction, social inequality – didn’t just happen to us; they are a direct result of unconscious, flawed design of our social systems. The challenge in front of us therefore is clear: we must reinvent the social architecture of our systems, i.e. redesign our social systems in a way that continually increases their contribution to the wellbeing of all life they affect, for all time. This entry outlines a number of powerful, elegant and pragmatic developmental strategies addressing this challenge. |
