Humanity at a Crossroads: Preparing for the Fall of Capitalism

Humanity at a Crossroads: Preparing for the Fall of Capitalism

More and more people are questioning how long capitalism can maintain, given its overuse of earth’s resources, its extreme concentration of wealth among a few, its inability to adequately respond to climate change, its dominating impact on government, and the fragility of its globalization of the economy. How and when will capitalism end? What will be the social dynamics that its fall will put in play? How best to prepare for the social turmoil that will arise? What is a viable social vision to replace capitalism and how can this be put into practice?

System for a New Era image

System for a New Era

System for a New Era

This class will present the system that P. R. Sarkar articulated for realizing a new era of humanity. Sarkar called this system the “panacea” to solve the problems of human existence, and he designated this new era as the “rule of rationality.” To understand what Sarkar means and envisions, we’ll examine how the five major components he introduced for manifesting this new era – PROUT, neohumanism, aesthetic science, microvita science, and intuitional science – interrelate and interact together as a single, integrated system. We’ll explore how this system is designed according to a set of guiding operative principles that maximize balanced development of physical, mental, and spiritual potentialities and advance humanity towards spiritual and social fulfilment.

Beyond Identity Politics: Universal Social Equality as a Basis for Freedom and Liberation image

Beyond Identity Politics: Universal Social Equality as a Basis for Freedom and Liberation

This course is for people interested in what neohumanism contributes to our understanding of justice, equity, diversity and inclusion. Our contemporary world is riven with social antagonisms and political vitriol that many blame on “identity politics,” a term that gets tossed around often but without clear understanding of what it means or entails. So, what is “identity politics,” and why is it so charged? Where did it come from, how did it develop, and what are its implications? Are there are other forms of political engagement and social movement more suitable to the challenges we currently face? In this two-part course we’ll explore these questions and examine the possibility that identity politics does more to reinforce the status quo than to challenge it. As an alternative, we’ll consider how neohumanism engages issues of identity and advances universal social equality as the basis of human freedom and liberation.
