| + | Hello! kcgecbe interesting kcgecbe site! I'm really like it! Very, very kcgecbe good! |

| − | === Mission Statement<ref name="missionstatement"/> ===
| + | |
| − | Founded in 2008, The Zeitgeist Movement is a Sustainability Advocacy Organization which conducts community based activism and awareness actions through a network of Global/Regional Chapters, Project Teams, Annual Events, Media and Charity Work.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The Movement's principle focus includes the recognition that the majority of the social problems which plague the human species at this time are not the sole result of some institutional corruption, scarcity, a political policy, a flaw of "[[Human Nature|human nature]]" or other commonly held assumptions of causality.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Rather, The Movement recognizes that issues such as [[Poverty|poverty]], [[Corruption|corruption]], [[Collapse|collapse]], [[Homelessness|homelessness]], [[War|war]], [[Starvation|starvation]] and the like appear to be "Symptoms" born out of an outdated [[Current Social Structure|social structure]]. While intermediate Reform steps and temporal Community Support are of interest to The Movement, the defining goal here is the installation of a [[Resource Based Economy|new socioeconomic model]] based upon technically responsible [[Resource Management]], [[Resource Allocation|Allocation]] and [[Resource Distribution|Distribution]] through what would be considered [[The Scientific Method]] of reasoning problems and finding optimized solutions.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This "[[Resource Based Economy|Resource-Based Economic Model]]" is about taking a direct technical approach to social management as opposed to a [[Monetary Market Economy|Monetary]] or even [[Political System|Political]] one. It is about updating the workings of society to the most advanced and proven methods Science has to offer, leaving behind the damaging consequences and limiting inhibitions which are generated by our current system of monetary exchange, profits, corporations and other structural and motivational components.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The Movement is loyal to a train of thought, not figures or institutions. In other words, the view held is that through the use of [[Socially Targeted Research|socially targeted research]] and [[Tested Understandings|tested understandings]] in [[Science]] and [[Technology]], we are now able to logically arrive at societal applications which could be profoundly more effective in meeting the [[Human Needs|needs of the human population]]. In fact, so much so, that there is little reason to assume war, poverty, most [[Crime|crimes]] and many other [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_scarcity money-based scarcity]] effects common in our current model cannot be resolved over time.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The range of The Movement's [[Activism]] & [[Awareness Campaigns]] extend from short to long term, with the model based explicitly on [[Non-Violent methods of communication]]. The long term view, which is the transition into a [[Resource Based Economy|Resource-Based Economic Model]], is a constant pursuit and expression, as stated before. However, in the path to get there, The Movement also recognizes the need for [[Transitional Reform Techniques|transitional Reform techniques]], along with [[Direct Community Support|direct Community Support]].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | For instance, while "[[Monetary Reform]]" itself is not an end solution proposed by The Movement, the merit of such legislative approaches are still considered valid in the context of transition and temporal integrity. Likewise, while [[Food|food]] and [[Clothing|clothes]] drives and other supportive projects to help those in need today are also not considered a long term solution, it is still considered valid in the context of helping others in a time of need, while also drawing awareness to the [[TZM's Principle Goals|principle goal]].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The Zeitgeist Movement also has no allegiance to a country or traditional political platforms. It views the [[Earth as a Complex System|world as a single system]] and the [[Humanity|human species as a single family]] and recognizes that all countries must disarm and learn to share [[Resources|resources]] and [[Ideas|ideas]] if we expect to survive in the long run. Hence, the solutions arrived at and promoted are in the interest to [[Global Equality|help everyone on the planet Earth]], not a select group.
