Coexistence...!


For the first time on this blog, I am sharing TWO videos in a single post for a simple reason, they are not just on the same page but on the same lines when it comes to thinking differently about the Status quo. 

In the TED Talk above, Nick explains how the Capitalism and the Neoliberal Economy Theory is fundamentally flawed and what needs to be changed and how. In the course of elaborating his topic of discussion, he advocates the principles of coexistence and cooperation drawing similar strokes of ideas that are intrinsically similar to concepts of CSR. For example in the following passage, Nick eloquently presents the inner force of humanity to become those super-beings and evolve as master-of-universe.

"But, if instead we accept the latest empirical research, real science, which correctly describes human beings as highly cooperative, reciprocal and intuitively moral creatures, then it follows logically that it must be cooperation and not selfishness that is the cause of our prosperity, and it isn't our self-interest but rather our inherent reciprocity that is humanity's economic superpower."


In this second video Capt Raghu Raman, an Ex-defense officer with not only his name rhyming with the great visionary economist of present times Raghuram Rajan, but having similar progressive perspective of inclusive vision to boost the unorganized sector for its potential to contribute to the GDP in a great way with decentralization of concentrated economic power, lucidly explains how this supposedly India unInc is actually more organized, more proficient and also has about 50% of its fair share in nation's GDP. This is a perspective that must be pondered on particularly in times of jobless growth and concentration of economic power leading to an apparent recession.   

To complete this with a triology, I have published my recent paper 'Status quo and Paradigm shift' on ResearchGate. Read it HERE.      

Way to go for a decentralized economy and a balanced ecosystem for peaceful coexistence...!
