Book Description
This book outlines the theory of Neo-Humanism as propounded by the great 20th century think P.R. Sarkar. Neo-humanism is described as humanism expanded to include the entire creation: all varieties of human cultural expressions, and the animal and plant world, even until the inanimate world. This 'new-humanism', rather than being an aetheistic concept, recognizes the value of a human beings internal world, and thus bases the inspiration of neo-humanism upon a universal spirituality which is an essential part of the human psyche, although at times unconscious. This inner connection provides the mental epansion, empathy and perception so that will allow human society to live 'neo-humanism' not only intheory mut as a real expereicen intergrated into the individual and collective self. The author also clearly and concisely describes the modes by which vested economic and media interests manipulate and distort human thinking, and how this can be combatted through rationality and proper education. This he links in a unique way spirituality, rationality and human emotion. This book offers a unique perspective for anyone interested in sociology, multi-culturalism, anti-speciesism, globalization, anthropology, alternative economics, etc.

Neo-Humanism: Principles and Cardinal Values, Sentimentality to Spirituality, Human Society
Author: Shrii Prabhat Rainjan Sarkar
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1105425746
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
A progressive society is verily the composite of those beings who are engaged in the noble task of creating a conducive environment for human progress. This is what Part 1 is all about: what constitutes human progress, how one is to proceed in this direction, and the spirit of society. The conversion from sentimentality to spirituality constitutes the content of Part 2. The theme of Part 3 deals with social values and human cardinal principles, balance in all the strata of human existence, the principles and application of Progressive Utilization Theory (PROUT), re-organization of nations into self-sufficient or sustainable socio-economic units and their co-ordinated co-operation and merger into self-reliant zones, so as to prevent socio-economic exploitation and attain a high degree of socio-economic parity. Then each socio-economic unit would have the ideological base of Neo-Humanism, with the motto of 'self-realization and service to humanity'.

Neohumanism: Liberation of Intellect
Author: Prabhat Sarkar
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781463755799
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
All aspects of life, namely physical, psychic and spiritual, carry equal significance. In order to preserve balance in the psychic and spiritual spheres, there must first be balance in the physical realm. However, amidst all the rhetoric and gospels of peace, there are many places in the world where even the basic necessities of life are not available. Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar wants us to shoulder this responsibility of addressing this need through the application of PROUT, so that all the people of the world will have greater opportunities and scope for elevation of the mind and spirit. What is Neo-Humanism? When the underlying spirit of humanism is extended to everything, animate and inanimate, in this universe - I have designated this as Neo-Humanism. This Neo-Humanism will elevate humanism to universalism, the cult of love for all created beings of this universe. Explaining humanity and humanism in a new light will give new inspiration and provide a new interpretation for the very concept of human existence. Neo-Humanism will help people understand that human beings, as the most thoughtful and intelligent beings in this created universe, will have to accept the great responsibility of taking care of the entire universe -will have to accept that the responsibility of the entire universe rests with them. Neo-Humanism will make people understand that they are not merely ordinary beings. This philosophy will liberate them from all inferiority feelings and defects and make them aware of their own importance; it will inspire them to build a new world.

An Essay on Liberation
Author: Herbert Marcuse
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 0807096873
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
In this concise and startling book, the author of One-Dimensional Man argues that the time for utopian speculation has come. Marcuse argues that the traditional conceptions of human freedom have been rendered obsolete by the development of advanced industrial society. Social theory can no longer content itself with repeating the formula, "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs," but must now investigate the nature of human needs themselves. Marcuse's claim is that even if production were controlled and determined by the workers, society would still be repressive—unless the workers themselves had the needs and aspirations of free men. Ranging from philosophical anthropology to aesthetics An Essay on Liberation attempts to outline—in a highly speculative and tentative fashion—the new possibilities for human liberation. TheEssay contains the following chapters: A Biological Foundation for Socialism?, The New Sensibility, Subverting Forces—in Transition, and Solidarity.

Critical Theory and Animal Liberation
Author: John Sanbonmatsu
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
ISBN: 1442205822
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Critical Theory and Animal Liberation is the first collection to approach our relationship with other animals from the critical or "left" tradition in political and social thought. Breaking with past treatments that have framed the problem as one of "animal rights," the authors instead depict the exploitation and killing of other animals as a political question of the first order. The contributions highlight connections between our everyday treatment of animals and other forms of social power, mass violence, and domination, from capitalism and patriarchy to genocide, fascism, and ecocide. Contributors include well-known writers in the field as well as scholars in other areas writing on animals for the first time. Among other things, the authors apply Freud's theory of repression to our relationship to the animal, debunk the "Locavore" movement, expose the sexism of the animal defense movement, and point the way toward a new transformative politics that would encompass the human and animal alike.

ISBN:
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The Author aims at finding out a solution for the existing global problems that lead to disharmony and chaos. On the one hand, man has reached the moon and on the other, people are dying of poverty and hunger, social and political crime, natural and man initiated calamities. This book with a heart full of hope highlights the spiritual revival that will establish harmony and peace in our twenty first century. The solution lies in investigating the parameters which are discussed in this book with special reference to the path from humanism to Neohumanism to create global citizenship in order to pave way for World Peace. The fundamental aim of the author is the transformation of the culture of violence and war to a culture of harmonious and peaceful coexistence.

Assembly
Author: Michael Hardt
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190677988
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
In recent years "leaderless" social movements have proliferated around the globe, from North Africa and the Middle East to Europe, the Americas, and East Asia. Some of these movements have led to impressive gains: the toppling of authoritarian leaders, the furthering of progressive policy, and checks on repressive state forces. They have also been, at times, derided by journalists and political analysts as disorganized and ineffectual, or suppressed by disoriented and perplexed police forces and governments who fail to effectively engage them. Activists, too, struggle to harness the potential of these horizontal movements. Why have the movements, which address the needs and desires of so many, not been able to achieve lasting change and create a new, more democratic and just society? Some people assume that if only social movements could find new leaders they would return to their earlier glory. Where, they ask, are the new Martin Luther Kings, Rudi Dutschkes, and Stephen Bikos? With the rise of right-wing political parties in many countries, the question of how to organize democratically and effectively has become increasingly urgent. Although today's leaderless political organizations are not sufficient, a return to traditional, centralized forms of political leadership is neither desirable nor possible. Instead, as Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri argue, familiar roles must be reversed: leaders should be responsible for short-term, tactical action, but it is the multitude that must drive strategy. In other words, if these new social movements are to achieve meaningful revolution, they must invent effective modes of assembly and decision-making structures that rely on the broadest democratic base. Drawing on ideas developed through their well-known Empire trilogy, Hardt and Negri have produced, in Assembly, a timely proposal for how current large-scale horizontal movements can develop the capacities for political strategy and decision-making to effect lasting and democratic change. We have not yet seen what is possible when the multitude assembles.
