Capitalism has become an outworn and failed system, unable to provide equity, economic empowerment, environmental protection, or deep meaning in people’s lives. Humanity cannot long continue under capitalism; it must move forward, making a transition into a new soci0-economic vision.

Many people are aware of the acute difficulties in the world, and aware that profound change is required if solutions to present problems are to be found. The major problems facing humanity can no longer be solved by change of policy, change of laws, or even change in institutions. What is now needed is a change of humanity’s core values, and for the change at this deep level to then bring a revolutionary transition to a post-capitalist social order.

The proper purpose of revolution is to overcome stagnancy in the collective psychology and to breathe new life and dynamism into the society. This cannot be done with regime change. Deposing one ruling group and installing another will not end the oppression people feel, for the ideology of greed will remain in place, the hollow life of materialism will remain in place, and the fundamental problems we face will persist. What is needed is to give life to a new collective psychology, based on new values, leading to a true revolution that brings a wave of new dynamism into our collective expression. How we attain this is insightfully explored in A New Interpretation of Revolution.

Neohumanism is a new form of humanism that applies not only to human beings but to all living creatures. It is a type of humanism that expands the very concept to be inclusive of all beings. A neohumanistic approach is based upon the cultivation of a deep, internal sentiment which gives reverence to all life and sees all living beings as manifestations of one, integrated whole. Neohumanism gives depth and breadth to the relationship of human beings to each other and to the world in which they live. It is fundamentally spiritual in nature — not because it subscribes to any religious view, but because it acknowledges the deep, inherent unity in all life and the value which is inherent in the core of all beings, thus promoting a reverence for living beings.

In a neohumanistic approach one will not treat living beings in such a way as to categorize them as more significant and less significant. A neohumanist will appreciate that though they may be a member of a geographical group or a social group, the welfare of their particular group, clan, kin, or country is not more important than the welfare of others. A neohumanist will see that the welfare of all is significant. And not only is the welfare of all humans significant, but so also is the welfare of plants and animals. To a neohumanist, the welfare of all is of utmost importance.

A neohumanist will have a universal outlook, and at the base of this universal outlook there will be a deep reverence for the unitary consciousness that underlies all manifest expression and that is expressed in all beings.

The philosophy of PROUT — the Progressive Utilization Theory — is based upon the development and progressive utilization of all physical, mental and spiritual potentialities, both individual and collective. This socioeconomic theory is based upon the assumption that each and every living being has potentiality — in physical, mental and spiritual spheres — and that a well-balanced society will promote the progressive enhancement of those potentialities on the individual and collective levels. A progressive theory of socioeconomic development will be based on the fundamental principle that all have physical, psychic and spiritual potentialities, and that they must be given opportunity, individually and collectively, to express that potentiality and to progress in its use.

A well-balanced society that is properly supporting its members will promote this progressive development. It will not suppress the development of any individual in any sphere. It is the birthright of each and every person to have the opportunity to pursue their physical, mental and spiritual development to the best of their capacity. This opportunity must be provided to all. That development of each person should be a progressive development and should be supported by the society. This is the core intent of PROUT’s approach to socioeconomic development.

Humanity is at a crossroads. On one hand is the path of our sure destruction and of significant destruction to the planet. On the other hand, progressive forces are hard at work creating new ideas and new approaches. They are building the foundations of the new society, though as yet little can yet be seen of their work. Those who see deeply enough know that soon the conditions of the world will change and the demand for their knowledge will be great.

A progressive vision is now emerging to replace capitalism. Guided by this vision, the progressive minded society builders must be ready to spring into action, like disaster relief teams action teams following a great catastrophe. Capitalism has been digging away at its own foundations and has no contingency plans for its collapse. Capitalism will fall, and its outdated economic system will not be able to function. There will then be opportunity for new ideas and new hope to guide and inspire humanity to build a new society on the basis of values that show great care for people and the planet.
