PRESS HERE TO BUY The Modern Universal Paradigm by Rodney Shakespeare, Foreword by Tarek el-Diwany
August 10, 2007 |
IS THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRASH HAPPENING? WHAT IS THE ANSWER?
Even when a global financial crash is probably happening unfree market finance capitalism arrogantly assumes that it is the perfected development of history. It sees no possibility of an equal, let alone its superior, system arising. But there is a better way of organising ourselves. At a time when orthodox solutions are failing, The Modern Universal Paradigm shows how, on market principles, we can restore justice and fulfil the needs of humanity. Everybody can have an income, with wide capital ownership and private property; there can be clean water and proper education; and we can halve the cost of capital projects, including those for preserving the environment, by eliminating riba/interest.

Tarek El Diwany (author of The Problem with Interest) writes:-
“Here is a set of values, theories and practical strategies that demonstrate the glorious possibility of life without interest, of refuge from the scourges of debt, of wealth inequality, volatility, depletion and hunger. What a life that would be! In a way, this is not a new paradigm, merely a very old one rediscovered. It belongs to an age when ideas were simple because they were truthful.”
Colin Whitmill (of the New Zealand Democratic Party) highlights this:-
“An economy is part of society. The two are intertwined and interrelated so that their concepts and practices are intertwined and interrelated. Any move towards a new paradigm, therefore, involves intellectual, emotional and psychological change on a large scale.
While the Modern Universal Paradigm has its roots in the past, including a prohibition of riba (interest); a sense of stewardship, a need for sharing and participation, a strong ethical sense, and a demand for structural and economic justice - it also contains modern insights e.g. that money is created out of nothing, that riba (interest ) is both wrong and not necessary and that technological capacity exists to eliminate poverty.
Past and present then come together to replace the old economics with a new economics; to supplant the old politics with a new politics; indeed , to create a new society.”
Robert Corfe, author of nine books particularly on New Socialism and similar themes, says:-
“…..powerful, well-written with concise argument need for new paradigm, a new radical political culture, embodying Global Justice.”
