Dear Leslaw:
(1) Many thanks for your msg
(ATTACHMENT I below), in response to the Reference (a) above.
(2) My wholehearted congratulations for the publication of your paper in the
Club Rome journal (Reference (b) above) -- I re-read it with great interest,
though I once read it before when you sent it to me on August 23, 2011.
(3) Many thanks for your mentioning our
Global Early Warning System (GEWS) project, which new
current name is Global Knowledge Centers Network (GKCN) (Reference (c) above.
I also thank you for your quoting my old paper (Reference (d) above).
(4)
I sincerely agree with your vision of "The World Information System for
Sustainable Development Policy and Economy," building (by backcasting) information bases of sustainable development
policy and economy, including global early warning system in distributed
simulation mode. As you say, without such world information system it is
impossible to up-date and realize UN world society sustainable development
strategy.
I particularly like your idea of “ecohumanistic.”
As you see in the Reference (d) above, our GKCN will work toward meeting with
such a need.
(5) I would be very happy if you would work on the creation of GKCN/Poland,
which will be interlinked with other countries later as creating the electronic
United Nations at its ultimate stage.
Keep in touch,
Best, Tak

Dear Tak,
In enclosure SOME ANTI-CRISIS PROPOSALS.
To realize them THE WORLD INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
POLICY AND ECONOMY, including GLOBAL EARLY WARNING, is essential.
What is your opinion on it?

SOME ANTI-CRISIS
PROPOSALS
World is in the global crisis. It is the result of a
big XXth century’ science-technology development
without adjustment of social relations, including economics, to such new
life-conditions (level of technology development, state of environment,
accessibility of resources, and so on). Together with it world society have
crossed, in pathological way, two main limits to growth: inertial and
environmental. To create sustainable development of the world society it is
necessary to get skill of elimination in pre emptive
way of negative effects of inevitable moral (obsolete, outmoded) destruction of
up to date proper forms of life (axiology, technology, economics, and so on)
but not yet adequate to new life conditions.
For this end we inter alia need:
1. To get skill of forecasting and measure of complex effects of
human activity and other changes in life–conditions.
2. To get skill of accumulating intellectual and material reserves,
and big flexibility, for avoiding catastrophes not predicted properly.
3. To combine economic growth with real quality of life growth.
4. To combine access to wealth with ecosocially
useful – especially science and innovative -
creative activity of mature subjects of socio-economic life.
5. To substitute egoistic axiology for ecohumanistic
one.
Ecohumanism means partnership-based cooperation for the common
good/win-win of all people (rich and poor, from countries highly developed and
behind in development), their descendants, and natural environment - commonly
supported by science and high technology, as well as information culture
Intensity of moral (obsolete,
outmoded) destruction is growing up with science-technology development, that
is essential for elimination of moral destruction negative effects.
To eliminate negative effects of such
moral destruction we have to generate big ecosocial
useful intellectual creative activity.
To achieve sustainable development of
the world society it is especially necessary to change - in backcasting
way - world monetary system.
I propose such long-term strategy vision
of above system:
To stimulate economic activity we ought to substitute current inflation way of
supporting market demand for “ecosocial useful
deflation” way.
It ought to allow not to spend moneys on superfluous, ecosocially cost consumption.
The moneys saved would be used by new form of banks for credit ecosocially useful innovations. As a result, the market
demand would be created by means of more ecosocially
useful products of new generation.
In such new - sustainable development supporting – economy, wealth of any
individual or collective subject would combine their wealth with effects of
elimination moral destruction negative effects.
It would be quite new ecosocial justice principle.
