Mainstream evolutionary psychologists state that cooperation, empathy and a strong sense of fairness were the key ingredients which led to the evolutionary success of our species. For the vast majority of us, these remain our most dominant values.

Systems science maintains that everyone and everything is not separate, but interconnected and interdependent. All life exists as interrelated systems with varying levels of complexity.

So, we human beings are bizarre super-cooperators living in an interconnected world, despite what we are led to believe by the few who profiteer from division.

Global People Power wants to enable humanity to live how most of us really want to live – with kindness, care and empathy. Not only extending this regard to ourselves, our families, communities, nations and with those whom we identify with culturally, but for the whole of humanity and for the natural world.

Liquid blockchained democracy at the global sphere, online and networked through our communities is how we can live it, practically and emotionally.

That is why we have created a tool to help you think, communicate and act systemically. Try out our Systemoji Thinking Tool.

The key political issue of our age is how to overcome the power that transnational corporations, globally mobile elites and oligarchs hold over national governments.        

Under the threat of relocating to other more” business-friendly” nations, transnational corporations demand full spectrum privatisation, reduced public spending, corporate subsidies, lower rates of corporation tax, weaker employment and environmental protection rules and the suppression of trade unions. 

Playing the game of "international divide-and-rule," they force nations into competition with each other and in doing so are driving a global race to destruction.

Mainstream media channels (usually transnational corporations) and vested interest elites warn voters against deviating from the fundamentalist neo-liberal, austerity-driven status-quo. They pronounce that to do so would be “counterproductive to national interests in a competitive world.“

Power has now moved permanently beyond the nation-state and so have the causes of problems impacting people’s daily lives.

Our so-called “world-leaders” are merely pretending to be in control having ceded power to transnational corporations, often whilst inviting us to buy into a narrative of past nationalistic “greatness.”

As leaders aren’t leading on any innovative solutions, the democratic power-vacuum is being quickly filled by far-right demagogues, autocrats and oligarchs.

You can become a real world-leader by helping to democratise global power - by creating a democracy fit for the 21^st century based on cooperation to regulate transnational corporations for the good of humanity and the planet. By taking responsibility to tackle the causes of planetary challenges, not by fighting the present reality, but by creating a new global system. A system which includes yet transcends national, regional and local systems of governance while also regaining their sovereignty.
