Co-operative Socialism on the map May 2013. Note: the horizontal ‘left/right’ axis is reversed in the map above.
In such a world, incomes will be much more equal, (which ‘The Spirit Level’ book tells us is the key good – see The Equality Trust web-site).
And, so, there will be more peace, trust, respect, happiness. This will be because everyone will have, from the community, a guaranteed ‘Living Income’ so that ‘co-operative care-ship’ of the planet will be our number one creative, sustainable, peaceful opportunity. We can get there by a combination of personal growth, community education and parliamentary action.
For action ideas and more, see the 2005 CAOS paper (‘Co-operative Socialism: Theory and Practice’) and the 2010 ‘CCPA Readings on Co-operative Socialism’ in the papers’ section of http://www.interestfreemoney.org/papers/
VIDEOS - 2014
