Discourse 6: A SOCIAL ECOLOGY.....
A NEW MORALITY? ...........ALTERNATIVE CHOICES?
SUMMARY
What are the key points of the discourse? [SCROLL DOWN]
who reads this discourse? where? [ the site readers/towns and countries]
Why have I identified 'a new morality'?
The discourse has made it increasingly clear that we are talking about how people 'ought to' behave, how they should behave, rather than
how they do behave.
For example, I and others may agree that we should 'care and share', but many others are busy killing each other, generation by
generation. If they are not killing others, communities in the USA, in the EU, the UK, are actively trying to exclude migrants from their shores.
It is not enough to care and share locally, because we are in situations where it is important to be 'global': In 2005, Mary E. Clark described
this as a 'global-community psychology'. Furthermore, we live in communities that interact with others across the world by mobile phone,
internet, social networks. Many people are on the move. The recent swine flu scare, May 2009, recurring in 2010, reminded us all how
quickly infections can spread across the world from one farm in Mexico. The so called 'Arab Spring' has witnessed the spread of
demonstration, riot, civil disorder across North Africa and into the Middle East in attempts to establish democracy in place of plutocracy.
The spread of the financial crises in the USA in 2008 to Europe, China, Japan revealed the extent to which all countries are interdependent
in the operation of capitalism and banking. The current situation in Greece is rooted in the eagerness of global banks and governments to
lend money without any regard for the ability of the creditor country to pay back. Fractional Reserve Banking leads investment funds to lend
so as to create money: if you lend, say, $2 billion to Greece, you can demand up to $13.5 billion as principal and interest. The interest
charged bankrupts the borrower. The borrower has to appeal to others, such as the Eurozone, to help pay the debts [even though the
money itself is a digital entry on a computer balance sheet. It is only a number! It is not cash].
I may argue for 'open education', and the Institute of Democratic Education may argue for democratic schools, but the evidence is that
most governments control teachers and teaching in schools by means of 'national curricula' and operate closed systems. There are few
attempts to allow pupils, parents and teachers to organise their schools and choose their curriculum according to their own objectives.
The arguments developed so far in this discourse are based on the following propositions:
For our survival, we depend completely on others, from conception to the grave. Our sense of individual freedom and free will comes from
our social interdependence, and is best regarded as a ‘Social Freedom’.
I argue that Individual Independence as expressed in 'individualism' is a psychological and cultural delusion which leads us to reject
others, and to treat them as objects, seeking 'self aggrandisement' and personal profit, and to follow strategies of capitalism. It is at the
root of the exploitation of others - gesellschaft. For some social ecologists, individual liberty, libertarianism, even anarchy, is crucial to allow
them to unite with nature. I want to argue that Social interdependence ensures that we survive together in community and nature-
gemeinschaft. Social interdependence is a social fact.
Social freedom arises from the cooperation of the many in the interests of the many in communities. Social interdependence and social
freedom give us the moral imperative to 'care and share'. Of course, I realise that in such an argument, I am entering the continuing
debate between social theorists as to the 'individual' and the 'community'; the 'I' and 'we', as well as 'free will'.
Social Ecology proposes that ‘nature’ and ‘humans’ are interdependent and interactive. All organisms form interconnected extended
ecological communities, existing as part of ecosystems in the biosphere. All organisms are part of the 'matter' of the universe, formed into
collections of particles, and genes,and cells. Human organisms are part of nature. Social ecology studies the impacts of competition and
exploitation by humans upon nature and all living organisms in the biosphere. Some social ecologists argue that they are more concerned
to see humans living in libertarian communities in which they are free to make decisions according to their priorities. This may be the
politics of social ecology. But I see it as an expression of individualism rather than socialism.
Is social ecology coherent with direct democracy?
Or is the one little to do with the other!
Is Social Ecology best seen as a social science.
‘Social Ecology’ studies the role of human societies in the natural environment. As such, it is a social science. It analyses the consequences
of human action on the earth, air, fire and water that supports all ecological communities in the biosphere.
Social Ecology evaluates evidence so as to devise a social, moral, philosophical, economic, ecological, environmental manifesto. It attempts
to identify the principles, policies, and actions that are necessary to protect the environment and enable the survival of all ecological
communities in the biosphere in the future. As such Social Ecology is a reflexive social science, identifying ecological problems and offering
solutions.
Social Ecology devises manifestos that can be adopted by any organization, government, or group; from a dictatorship, or a plutocracy, or
a parliament, or a corporation, or a local authority, or a municipality, or any political party. Nevertheless, for some reason or other, in the
USA, it has become associated with the particular politics of particular protagonists and their perspectives [such as anarchy; libertarian
municipalism; direct democracy; inclusive democracy; communism or communalism] to the exclusion of all others.
I suggest that there is no valid reason why Social Ecology has been so completely tied to these political perspectives, In fact, to do so has
led it into a dead end!
Today, most organisations are hierarchies. Nation States are plutocracies …even those parading as democracies. All states and
corporations are actively involved in capitalism, and state socialism has failed. Most people in the world live in large cities not villages, with
little sense of community. Most people are poor and uneducated, struggling to survive. It is most important that all these groups pay
attention to, and enact, the Social Ecology manifesto.
Social ecologists recognize the role of humans in the destruction of the environment and the consequences of capitalist enterprise to the
exploitation of natural resources. They propose policies and practices that preserve the environment, and do not poison the biosphere.
They draw our attention to the facts that ‘we’ are responsible for the pollution of nature. They urge governments to move towards a
sustainable economy based on subsistence, conservation and preservation. They devise models of a steady state economy which will
stabilize consumption and growth. They emphasize the need to ‘care and share’, and for communities to provide welfare for the benefit of all
by redistributing wealth. Such a manifesto would lead to significant social change whether it was adopted by local or central government,
direct or participatory democracy, hierarchical or non-hierarchical organizations. To be relevant to our present lives, it has to be available to
all organizations.
Social Epistemology recognises that knowledge is ‘a posteriori’, and is socially mediated. We discover knowledge and truth. Knowledge is
based on the testimony of others, in particular our family. We trust the veracity of these family sources, and later other expert sources. Our
experiences identify the facts that enable us to know the truth: that is, knowledge is factive, and truth is socially mediated. We have to
accept the validity and veridicality of our experiences so as to recognise our social interdependence as part of extended ecological
communities.
Despite the facts that we live in states of interdependence with each other and all other organisms, the evidence is that humans spend a lot
of time in communities in conflict. In fact, it would seem that the more united, the more likely some communities are to reject others.
I have to acknowledge that the concepts of interdependence and community are problematic. Individualism, tribalism, nationalism [all forms
of separatism] have led to acts of conflict,slaughter, genocide. Case studies of Northern Ireland, Bradford, and Fiji reveal the variety of
causes of conflict.
The peace makers, like Crisis Watch, declare that communities must recognise their interdependence; accept their diversity, and
similarities; and realise that for anyone to be free, everyone has to be free. The peace makers make it clear that conflict prevention is an
essential, and long term activity.
Once you recognise the interdependence of all individuals in communities, it becomes much easier to work in cooperation, to care and
share with others.
Where necessary, individuals in communities may need to be educated to act in cooperation, freedom, diversity, community. To pursue
these objectives, Education will involve social interactive learning, where the learner is actively involved with others. Education
should be based on ‘social ecology’ whereby knowledge is discovered, and problems of nature investigated, and learning achieved by
interactive communities of humans and other animals in nature as part of the biosphere.
Education should be seen as learning rather than teaching. With less focus on the transmission of ‘facts’ as givens, and more on
discovery as the means to open minds to their potential for contributing to our common survival. By recognizing the diversity of learners,
and adopting a multi-cultural approach, we can develop the support within which all can flourish, avoiding the wasted talent, apathy and
alienation that a meritocracy engenders.
Education as learning indicates that the learner is most significant. Effective learning takes place when the learner is actively participating
in investigation, exploration, discovery of things in which they are most interested ; the teacher is an aid, a guide, not a dictator. The
government is a provider of opportunities for the citizens, not the providers of national schooling and curriculum.
Education as learning should be as diverse as the number of learners, taking place in any learning space with the learner free to
negotiate with their teachers what the curriculum is to be.
All learners are dependent upon their teachers, parents, family, researchers, reporters, writers, other learners, across time and space. Our
knowledge is based on the testimony of others. We can only learn to be skilled in cooperation with others. We learn to be free in
association with others. We learn to be skilled by following the examples of others. Schools could be places where all are working together
in learning communities.
Education as Learning can take place anywhere, anytime in learning spaces , where learners can discover relationships and knowledge
rather than memorizing prescribed curricula as directed by governments or religious centres..... A prescribed curriculum sees education
as a means of social control: enabling the capitalist elites, and their agencies to control pedagogy. A Negotiated curriculum would be a
key practice in the development of learner choice, and social freedom, in changing the relationships between teachers, learners and
knowledge.
Open approaches to learning promote the use of open texts, open dialogue, discourse and negotiation in order to solve problems,
enabling all learners to cooperate on issues of real concern in their own local communities and globally. ‘Education as liberation’: a
pedagogy of hope.
A pedagogy of social ecology could be adopted, according to which a ‘green movement’ could promote ‘green living’ in a ‘green world’;
and direct democracy, with communities based on free association, workers councils, local assemblies, supported by cooperative
households and collective work places; where ‘green’ communities would preserve, conserve and recycle, reuse and repair. Energy would
be saved, and alternative sources developed. Water would be conserved. Only those chemicals least harmful to the environment would be
used. Paper not plastic. People will walk, cycle, and share automobiles and public transport. Students would learn about living to protect
and conserve all living organisms in the biosphere for their mutual benefit.
We are far from this.
Development. We live in a world which is controlled by a capitalist elite - to be exact, 10.1 million people who own more wealth than
all the other 7 billion people living on earth: A world in which poverty is normal, and where wealth is abnormal and excessive. Where the
rich are the powerful! whose power depends upon the continuance of poverty and ignorance.
Government agencies such as the United Nations declare that the alleviation of poverty is the top priority, and the development of the
poorest countries essential. But the evidence since 2008 is that development projects lead to corruption and bribery, and the maximisation
of profits for the multi national corporations. Development and globalisation are strategies of intervention for the benefit of the rich
investors and shareholders. They are not strategies for the alleviation of poverty. Crops are grown for profit not the alleviation of poverty.
Minerals and forests are exploited for the benefit of the already developed world. The local communities in the poorest countries are left to
die of hunger and disease. Many of these poor countries such as the Congo or Nigeria or Sudan are the richest in raw materials.
If it is to mean anything Development must benefit the host country, and their indigenous peoples. Development must be subsistent
and sustainable, as part of the redistribution of wealth. The United Nations, and all development agencies, in association with
national governments, should stop corporations stealing resources, and prevent the recent land grab by sovereign wealth funds. Micro-
finances and social enterprise should be used to promote local initiatives, and alleviate the poverty of local communities.
A 'green future' is subsistent, sustainable, and communal, abandoning any rule by elites, and sacrificing their capitalist exploitation by
redistributing their billions of dollars for the benefit of the billions of people living in poverty. The consequences of capitalist exploitation
have been disastrous, resulting in the death, destruction, misery of the poor majority and their children, and allowing the wealthy elites to
live in luxury, generation to generation. The effects of such exploitation are being revealed by the current conflicts in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya,
Bahrain, Jordan, Algeria as the citizens living in poverty take action against the dictators living in luxury.
What sort of future? Social Ecology is the key.
Whatever the causes, the consequences of climate change will be shortages of food, water; the spread of disease, and catastrophic
climatic events leading to floods along the coasts, submergence of islands, extensive deserts inland, and widespread forest fires.
............Unless we adopt social ecology, develop a new morality, and make alternative choices............! ....stop global pollution,
and exploitation of people and resources.
Social Ecology is a philosophy and a morality,and praxis exploring the ways in which humans should act peacefully, ecologically,
locally and globally for the mutual benefits of all living organisms in the biosphere.
Today, most charities and some governments will agree that it is socially unfair and unjust that the majority of people on earth are poor:
absolute poverty, if you are on $2 a day; relative poverty, if you have more or less than $10 a day; welfare poverty, if you are
defined as living on less than $67 a day [such as the poor in the USA, the UK, the EU]. According to this analysis, 6.8 billion people
[including 2,2 billion children] are to be regarded as poor, of which 1.1 billion are starving.
However, the alleviation of poverty may not be possible within our current global capitalist economies. The Environmental Lobby assert
that if this poor majority, on less than $67 a day, were to consume resources at the present per capita rate, of the rich minority, on more
than $275 a day, world annual resource production rates would have to be 8 times as great as they are now. All estimated potentially
recoverable resources of fossil fuels would be exhausted in about 18 years. The forest area harvested would have to be 3 to 4 times
greater than all the present forest areas on the planet. Croplands would have to increase to 4.5 billion hectares, when there are only
1.4 billion hectares in use at the moment [after Ted Trainer]. This rate of consumption is not possible. Such a future is not 'grow or die' but
'grow and die'! So any attempts to raise the standards of living of the poor majority would end in ecological disaster!
On August 16th 2010, China was declared the 2nd largest world economy: and in February 2011 it was declared the 2nd.richest country.
China is recognised as a developing country, where the per capita income is $3,600, or less than $10 a day! A country that has some of
the poorest people on the globe. If China becomes the largest economy in the world, declared a developed country, and the Chinese
increase personal incomes to $100 a day, there will be an uncontrollable rise in consumption and a collapse of the capitalist industrial
systems: growth and death. There is no free market capitalist future for China nor for the rest of the world.
The capitalist drive for growth is unsustainable. It has a limited future. The world is not big enough to support exploitation and consumption
rates based on everyone having $275 a day. There cannot be a better way for all, if it involves greater consumption and greater
production on this scale. The truth is that the only capitalist future is for the "elite" minority based on the exploitation of the poor majority.
$1.4 billion for one banker........absolute luxury.
$1.4 billion for 1.4 billion people.........absolute poverty.
$100 a day each for 7 billion people .......... complete ecological disaster. We have reached a ‘tipping point’.
The industrial economies that depend on petrol, coal, electricity, wood, gas, are now operating on such a large scale, that their emissions
are polluting the atmosphere to more than 450 to 600 carbon particles per million. These economies have created the wealth of the elites
in Europe and the USA, and China and Japan, and greatly enriched less than 1% of the global population. Once the other 99% demands
more food, water, electricity, transport, along with higher wages, we shall all tip into catastrophic exploitation of global resources and
pollution of the atmosphere. Our present global industrial economies are unsustainable. Greater consumption and growth will not lead to a
better way for all. It will certainly lead to the exhaustion of forests, minerals, farmlands, water supplies. It is grow and die!
Human rights
A direct implication of these scenarios is that the promotion of human rights by the UN, the WHO, the WFP, the World Bank, along with
many charities, can be regarded as an empty gesture. The human rights to birth, child care, food, water, sanitation, health care,
education, a living wage, protection, security;and the concerted efforts to
Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger;
Achieve universal primary education;
Promote gender equality and empower women;
Reduce child mortality;
Improve maternal health;
Combat HIV and AIDS, malaria and other diseases;
Ensure environmental sustainability;
Develop a global partnership for development;
are unsustainable under the free market capitalist system,and will not achieve their intended purposes!
The attainment of these rights, and goals, may not lead to any better ways of life within capitalist economies. They will promote increases in
the global population and thus lead to greater shortages of food and water. A capitalist society is unfair and unjust, designed to favour the
few – those who have the money.
Alternative choices
After many years of various forms of capitalism, and democracy, the industrial wealth of the world is controlled by less than 0.6% of the
global population. This cannot be fair nor just. Many labourers work themselves to death for little reward. Those few who own the wealth,
invest in projects, control the costs, and increase their funds, at the expense of the local workers. As Global Witness [www.
globalwitness.org] declares in their report of 2009, we live in a world in which ‘wealth creates poverty’.
But also the wealth of the few depends upon poverty of the majority.
Unregulated capitalism has to be reformed.
The World Social Forum, started in Brazil, is looking for alternative ways of organizing global and national economies.
The New Economic Foundation is looking for alternatives to ‘grow or die’ and free market capitalism.
The Social Ecology movement accepts that the search for growth and profit has led to the exploitation and pollution of the environment
and the impoverishment of the majority of people.
The Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative is trying to identify ways of reducing poverty, in the face of greater poverty and
the rich getting richer!
Oxfam accuses the G20, the World Bank, the IMF, of being socially unjust when they gave the directors of Central Banks $11 trillion to
compensate investors for their losses in the credit crisis 2007 – 09. It is worth remembering that this compensation would have
removed global poverty if it had been given to alleviate poverty.
Capitalist Enterprise has certainly helped to create 10 million $millionaires, including 1221 billionaires across the world. But most of the
labourers, urban and rural, across the world, are hardly better off. The global population is estimated to be 6.89 billion, out of which 5.6
billion try to live on less than $10 a day; and 1.3 billion people do survive on more than $10 a day. The latest wealth reports indicate that
while 10 million people across the globe own more than $40 trillion, living on more than $11,000 a day; 6.85 billion, including adults and
children, have unequal access to $19 trillion and each have to survive on $7.60 a day!
Resources and Poverty
The BBC Africa correspondents have recently reported that Africa is the most abundant continent on earth; Global Witness.org
indicated that the countries of Africa exported oil and minerals worth $393 billion in 2008. The peoples of Africa, the workers, are among the
poorest in the world, whereas the leaders of some governments in Africa are on the lists of the world’s richest individuals. Officials of
African agencies are constantly being investigated for bribery and corruption.
Anti-poverty groups are becoming increasingly alarmed about speculation in global food markets by such speculators as Anthony Ward of
Armajaro Holdings, a Mayfair-based hedge fund; and the Quantum Fund of George Soros. The World Development Movement wants
this kind of trading to be curbed by calling on the EU to cap the amount of money that private investors can pump into the market for so
called "soft commodities". The Fairtrade Foundation adds that deals like Armajaro's leave small farmers, who are unable to hedge against
future losses, dangerously exposed to downturns in the market, and ultimately increase the risk of food shortages for Africa's poorest
people.
Fair Shares for all?
If we want to think about a future world
where 5 billion adults, each live on $100 a day; with regular employment; able to have children and nurture their families without
any risk of premature death.;
where there are 2 billion children, healthy and fit, able to go to school to learn to read and write;
where all people have direct access to clean water, toilets and sanitation; enjoy uninterrupted electricity supplies; can grow or
buy their food for at least two meals a day. Such a world is promoted by the United Nations, the World Health Organisation, UNICEF, the
World Food Programme, as well as many charities.
If we are to achieve such a world, then the 195 countries of the world will have to radically change their economies:
‘Sustainability’ will have to replace ‘growth’;
‘Conservation’ instead of ‘exploitation’;
Cooperatives not private ownership;
Social redistribution of the wealth of the few;
‘Subsistence’ farming rather than commercial;
Crops for community life not industrial use.
Family life in neighbourhoods, and no more globe trotting.
Working where you live, for a fair day’s pay, and no more commuting.
Cooperation, partnership, caring, sharing for the survival of your community.
This message will not be welcomed by the poor nor the rich. The message asserts that for the poor, subsistence is the key. These
changes will not be the result of capitalist growth, but of wealth redistribution. Gandhi, Mandela, Annan, Tutu amongst many others, have
declared that there is enough wealth in the world to enable all to survive. But it has to be shared out equally or according to need.
An important initiative was taken on August 4th. 2010 - 40 billionaires, took the lead of Bill Gates and Warren Buffet, and promised to
increase their donations to charities. This may be a first step in redistribution.
If some of the richest individuals in the world recognise that wealth has to be shared for the care of the most vulnerable, this confirms the
proposals of the Social Ecology movement. The trillions of dollars that are generated each year to increase the wealth of the 1221
billionaires must be available to the majority by redistribution. SEND COMMENTS TO hmr@kelvynrichards.com

There are specific groups of readers all over China, Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, Romania, Russia, Ukraine; Finland;
Florida; Illinois; Seattle; Dallas,Texas; and New York, Japan, and South Africa.
By far, most readers are from all parts of North America, from California to Nova Scotia. Some are via AMAZON.COM or FACEBOOK,
and Apple i-Pad. I noticed that a group of readers are accessing this site via a CHINACACHE in Los Angeles, and New York; and in Florida.
February 2012: a significant increase in the readers from China. Of course I do not know whether they are private or officials from public
offices. Nevertheless.....Welcome.
January 2012: readers from the Republic of Tajikistan.
November:2011. Increasing numbers of readers in the Ukraine[Kiev]; in China [Beijing/Putian/Soghou]. I am pleased to see that more
countries in Africa are using my web site: Kenya, Tanzania, Ghana, Egypt, Rwanda, DR Congo, Nigeria as well as South Africa.
October:2011, the JNT Association for FE/HE in the UK refers my web site to a number of Colleges of FE/HE in the UK. However whenever I
have tried to contact them welcoming their work, they have failed to answer.
Submit your comments to the email address: hmr@kelvynrichards.com......
