In this video I talk through my experience with the meaning crisis and explore some arguments and ideas of its origin, structure and function.
Here are some of the touch points:
- The Enlightenment
- Scientific Materialism
- The Death of God
- Revolutionary Thinking
- Nihilism
- Globalism/Multiculturalism
- Global Flows of Capital, Culture & Technology
- Post/Hypermodernity
- Integral Theory
- What is Ideology?
- What is Work?
- Corruption in Church/Institutions/Families
In part 2 we'll explore how different world views are coping with the crisis and discuss some potential ways out/through.
