Creating the New Paradigm - Hardcover

"Current trends and processes are rapidly dragging humanity and civilization towards an 'irreversible' threshold, and this situation arises from oligarchic capitalist plunder and pillage. Therefore, without exiting the current capitalist production and consumption process, humanity and civilization are heading towards the future, diseases, humiliation, destruction of the natural environment, etc. On the other hand, it is accompanied by excessive consumption by the global oligarchy, and human, social, ecological problems and evils arise from this inequality. Therefore, the elimination of inequality between the environment, now called the South, in every country and world scale, especially in the imperialist centers, is the key to securing life on the planet. In order to get out of this situation, firstly, the current understanding of wealth, prosperity and 'happiness' needs to change; secondly, the production and consumption model needs to change; thirdly, in imperialist countries with extremely unequal wealth and income inequality, consumption is at a record low. It needs to be reduced significantly so that consumption there provides significant opportunities: and finally, fourthly, the damned of the earth need to get rid of the carelessness of blindly imitating the imperialist centers. Because when they emulate, there is not much worth emulating..."

"The song 'to rise above the level of contemporary civilization' has been sung in Turkey for nearly 90 years. However, the 'contemporary civilization' that needs to be surpassed is nothing other than capitalist destruction and barbarism. Thanks to economic growth, unemployment, poverty and misery will cease to be a problem with the increase in GDP, and 'prosperity' will cease to be a problem." 'It is said that it will come true... However, the cause of unemployment, poverty, misery, loss of meaning and ugliness is capitalist growth itself, therefore there is a complete contradiction in the relationship. The medicine presented as a cure has already become the cause of the disease... Well, more GDP growth. , it can only deepen the disease even further... This means that we need a new definition of wealth, prosperity and 'happiness', a new understanding of man-man, man-society and society-nature, a new way of life before it is too late.”
