Many new readers of these Posts have come on board without having had the benefit of the earlier Posts that explained the values and principles of social sustainability. Beginning tomorrow I will post 1 article each day for 12 days. These represent very brief views into the much larger work from which they are drawn, “Fundamentals of Social Sustainability – Designing Sustainable Societies, Democracies and Economies.”
After these 12 articles have been completed I will try to teach you how to use those values and principles to interpret social issues. A parallel situation exists when a new mathematical explanation of physics comes into existence. Once it is invented, then it is time to use it to explain previously unexplainable phenomena. We will attempt to review social policies of democratic societies that not promote sustainability; and, some of the Supreme Court rulings that not consistent with the values and principles of social sustainability.
I have begun to add documents to my Dropbox account for your access and duplication, if you wish. New documents will be added when the need arises. Reinterpreting these topics and other contemporary social issues will help you understand why contemporary societies are headed toward a downward spiral, and how these reinterpretations can point toward the healing evolution of those same societies. NOTE: When LinkedIn and Facebook software are not able reproduce illustrations in the Posts, I will copy them to the Dropbox account and provide you with a link to them.
