Author encourages Washington to define a new middle ground
LIVERMORE, Colo., Oct. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Author Gilbert E. Mulley proposes in the new book, "The Human Paradox: It's Time to Think and Act as a Species," a political perspective that moves America away from today's deeply divided politics toward a united focus on species survival and planetary integrity.
"American politics that aims for human prosperity on a whole planet will keep our species busy for decades to come," Mulley says. "An emphasis on the species and the planet shifts political inclinations away from toxic individualism, nationalistic hubris, and belligerent tendencies to universal issues all humans can identify with."
Mulley argues that traditional politics in practice today are not only impeding human progress but are putting a ceiling on what can be achieved. Constructing a "Sustainability Age" that strives for human prosperity in balance with nature should be America's primary purpose, eventually becoming a positive example to the world.
"A polity and an economy that acknowledges human sameness and works with nature, rather than against it, offers the best hope for a peaceful future," said Mulley. "By openly declaring species survival and planetary integrity as America's primary purpose, the United States can become an exemplar of humanity to the world."
