Corporate power

Nevarnost ni komercializacija kot taka, temveč je nevarno naše stalno istovetenje z njeno notranjo in zunanjo manifestacijo, ki človeško inteligenco odvrača od narave in duhovne evolucije. Kaj je torej zlo drugega kot naše istovetenje z njim?

ここ数年間に渡り、STWRは、どのように分かち合いの真の形態が２１世紀の政治経済のチャレンジに関係するかについての概要を述べた様々な文献を発表してきました。これらのブログ、記事またはレポートの多くは分かち合いの経済に直接的に関係し、４つの広い副題に基づき分類されています。

世界中の善意の人々をひとつに結ぶことは、地球規模の社会変革への私たちの最後の希望です。人類の大部分が、分かち合い、慈悲、正義に基づいて結集しなければなりません - これは、最大の緊急性の中で達成が可能であり、また達成されなければなりません。

Uniting the people of goodwill throughout the world is our last remaining hope for social transformation on a planetary scale. A vast bulk of humanity has to come together on the basis of sharing, compassion and justice – which can and must be achieved with the greatest possible urgency.

A vibrant debate is beginning to question the meaning of sharing in relation to the big questions of our time. In a recent article printed in STIR magazine, STWR argues that this emerging economic concept should not be beholden to solely personal, consumer-oriented or commercialised forms of collaboration, and must ultimately be reflected in government policies on the national and international level.

The greatest danger in the world today is not commercialisation per se but our constant identification with its inner and outer manifestation, whereby human intelligence is led in the opposite direction from nature and spiritual evolution.

At a time when the risk of civilizational collapse is widely forewarned, it is time to recognise that the call for sharing is a cause that can unite concerned citizens working on a diverse range of interconnected global issues.

As the influence of multinational corporations over public policy continues unabated, the key challenge for those campaigning for social and environmental justice is how to redistribute political power back into the hands of ordinary people.
