The End of Capitalism? - David Harvey (Penn Humanities Forum, 30 Nov 2011)



David Harvey, Professor of Geography and Anthropology Graduate Center, City University of New York. Three years after the near collapse of global financial markets, America is still struggling with unemployment, debt, and foreclosure, European governments are teetering on the brink of bankruptcy—and the world's billionaires are getting richer faster than ever before. The current situation is not sustainable. But what changes need to be made to overcome this mounting crisis of our world economic system? How radical an adaptation will be required? David Harvey, the brilliant theorist and scathing critic of postmodern society, looks at what the future holds for global capitalism. davidharvey.org The Dr. ST Lee Distinguished Lecture Series in the Humanities brings to the Penn Humanities Forum scholars and artists whose work has advanced our understanding of issues central to the humanities. www.phf.upenn.edu

The annual Charles Frankel Prize in the Humanities was established in 1988 and succeeded by the National Humanities Medal in 1997. The token is a bronze medal designed by a 1995 Frankel Prize winner, David Macaulay. Medals are conferred once annually, usually by the US President, to as many as twelve living candidates and existing organizations nominated early in the calendar year.

Humanity's Expression



As the pace of change in the world accelerates and more and more people are waking up in a spectacular global awakening out of the illusion thrust upon us since birth, we may find that some people are too far gone down the false-rabbit hole consciousness to ever truly wake up. So many of us work for the powers that be; so many of us consider ourselves the resistance. There will be friction, but good always wins in the end over tyranny. Never lose the belief that what we are doing is right. We must wake up as many people as possible. Nothing is more beautiful than the truth. FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT Man's struggle for freedom is one of the greatest tests and gifts we have as a sentient species. Nothing feels as good as fighting the good fight. Some things really are worth life itself. An ideal, a belief, and a love. The resistance is now. You are free. - The cveitch channel Thrusting a rusty sword into the bowels of evil since May 2009
