A Scaffolding, not a Blueprint
A Celebration Society by Jonathan Kolber offers a ground-breaking solution to the most urgent problem of our age: accelerating automation threatens to put multitudes out of work in the near future.
To get an overview of our proposal without reading the entire book, you can check out the overview page. But the best introduction is this five-minute professionally narrated audio video, best opened in PowerPoint as Slideshow, Play from Start: Grand Celebration 5 min
If we don’t get in front of this problem, we face civil unrest and destabilization on an epic scale.
The proposed solution is for a new type of society, based on provable systems of sustainable technological abundance. Many different societies can emerge and coexist within that scaffolding.
The climate crisis is equally serious, but not expected to devastate us as quickly. Novel solutions to that crisis are also discussed in the book.
