Solutions: Rethinking the world

• Identifying the biggest challenges of our time
• Learning from human history, don't repeat past mistakes
• Working interdisciplinary- exchanges beyond the own perspective
• Creating ideas and solutions for social, political and technological paradigm shifts
• Rewiring and reviewing new ideas with the lessons from history to estimate their potential
• Thinking beyond one legislative period, job position or life cycle, thinking sustainable
• Nurturing the global dialogue and visions
• Optimism increases motivation and innovation

Big problems and challenges demand big participation.

Deliberative Polls (by Jim Fishkin) are planned meetings for citizens to discuss drafts or schemes made by politics.

Process of success:

1. Choosing a representative group of citizens
2. Informing them objectively about the topics
3. Letting them discuss the topics first in small, then in big groups
4. Doing a survey about the topics
5. Integrating these data for people orientated political outcomes

• Dividing the biggest social media platforms to reduce their manipulative impact
• Banning ads
• Diminishing echo chambers and social bubbles
• Increasing the transparency of the algorithms and more individual settings for their application
• Restricting number of friends (Dunbar' number)

Measures for tackling climate change:

• Reducing CO2-Emissions to net-zero asap
• Establish sustainable carbon capture
• Growing the norm of emitting greenhousegases to be unacceptable (e.g. pricing it)

Problems:

• GDP doesn't account social inequality
• The majority of employees don't profit from the national economic growth
• The workload of the middle class increased without proportìonal growing financial adjustments

Measures:

• Regulating the competition to keep it fair and equally (e.g. no tax relief for the big companies)
• Taxing capital not labour
• Banning Neoliberlism by defining public welfare orientated ethical and moral standards based on empirical data, because every economic act is a moral decision solving or creating current problems
• Choosing complex and adaptable systems and simulations as scientific basis of action to test new economic concepts

• Market-Humanism – The market serves humanity not vice versa
• Cooperation and inclusion generates public welfare and growth by a representative participation of the people in the solution-process
• Economy is people not money
