Introduction
Humanity stands at a crossroads. Contemporary models of governance based on market
competition, private ownership and individual freedoms increasingly fail to address the
large-scale challenges of the 21st century. Capitalism and liberalism, once seen as
pinnacles of progress, have become systems that suppress collective purpose, create
feelings of meaninglessness, and erode motivation for development and reproduction.
Liberalism long served as the flagship of political thought, promoting personal freedom, the
rule of law, and democracy. However, in today’s world, it has evolved into a culture of
individualism , where personal liberty is valued over societal contribution—even when it
contradicts public interest. This shift fuels depression, anxiety disorders, and a loss of will to
live fully.
This article proposes a new model of social organization —a logical next step grounded in
science, technology, and social theory. The world is changing. If we want to survive and
evolve, we must change not only our technologies but the very structure of society.
1. Purpose as the Foundation of Society
A society without a clear goal is like an organism without a nervous system—it exists, but
does not develop. Modern society, especially in capitalist formats, acts chaotically: everyone
pursues their own interests, with rare overlap with public goals.
In this new model, society defines a clear mission :
- Primary goal : human safety—physical, informational, psychological.
- Secondary goal : preservation of planet Earth and the expansion of humanity into space as
a strategic direction for civilizational development.
These goals are not abstract. They set boundaries for all processes—from education to
production, from scientific research to international cooperation.
Purpose enables planning, and planning equals efficiency
Purpose allows for planning , and planning is the key to efficiency . Without a clear goal,
resources are distributed randomly, efforts are duplicated, and opportunities are lost. This is
why capitalist economies often face crises of overproduction, irrational consumption, and
environmental destruction.
However, it is important to understand: society must be able to adjust its goals . The
general mission may change depending on circumstances—ecological, technological, or
social. For example, if significant progress is made in space exploration, the secondary goal
may become primary. If a global threat emerges, all efforts will be directed accordingly.
2. Human as a Subject of Social Significance
One of the main shortcomings of capitalism and liberalism is their deindividuation of people
. Individuals are perceived either as consumers or labor force, not as persons with potential,
merit, and unique abilities.
The new society must give every person:
- A sense of life’s meaning —through participation in the realization of the common goal;
- A purpose in activity —through individual tasks aligned with one’s inclinations;
- An evaluation of one’s contribution —through a rating and feedback system.
Greater contribution should mean greater reward. Greater harm should result in stricter
punishment. Society must support those who do not oppose it and encourage those who
actively participate in its development.
Example: Japan and the “Hikikomori” phenomenon
Japan experiences the phenomenon of “hikikomori”—young people who completely isolate
themselves from society, sometimes for years. This is not just a cultural phenomenon, but a
result of society failing to provide these individuals with a clear purpose and place.
The new society should be structured so that each person can find their calling, receive
support and development, and see the results of their efforts.
3. Competition in Society: Motivation or Decline?
In capitalist society, competition is more than an economic mechanism—it is a way of life. It
is embedded in the educational system, labor markets, and social relationships. However,
this system has serious consequences:
- People begin to feel unnecessary if they do not achieve success;
- A culture of constant comparison develops, which undermines self-esteem;
- Fear of failure blocks creative potential.
The result is a psychological crisis , manifested in declining birth rates, rising rates of
mental illness, and increased suicide numbers.
Such a society cannot last long under new conditions. It is not only unfair, but also
biologically unsustainable . If people do not see meaning in continuing their lineage
because they don’t feel valued, society dies out.
4. Management through Parameters and Feedback
Traditional governance, based on rigid hierarchies and bureaucracy, is unable to effectively
manage complex systems. The new model proposes an approach based on parameter
balancing and real-time feedback .
Key pairs of parameters that must remain in balance:
- Freedom vs. duty
- Private vs. public
- Spirituality vs. pragmatism
- Equality vs. importance to society
Managing through parameters means decisions are based not on political or economic
interests, but on quantitative indicators and analytical systems .
Example: Singapore as a Model of Efficient Governance
Singapore is one of the most successful examples of a state governed by precise
parameters. The city-state uses data to regulate transport, healthcare, taxation, and
education. This allowed the country to achieve high quality of life and economic growth
despite its small territory and population.
In the new society, such approaches will become standard. Government bodies will function
as smart systems , adjusting actions based on continuous data analysis.
5. Rating as a Form of Participation in Governance
Modern politics is a system where power is obtained not necessarily by the most competent
or responsible individuals, but by those who best manipulate public opinion. This leads to
populism, corruption, and inefficient governance.
In the new model, a rating-based governance system is proposed. People who truly
contribute to the development of society—scientists, engineers, doctors, teachers—gain the
ability to influence decision-making.
The rating should be:
- Open —any citizen can see their own and others’ ratings;
- Motivated —all points should be explainable and fair;
- Not absolute —it doesn’t replace authority, but complements it with mechanisms of merit.
Abstract reasoning about the benefits of ratings
Rating is not just a number—it reflects a person’s real contribution to society. It creates a
system where wealth, origin, and appearance are irrelevant, and what matters is the actual
contribution to the common good . This approach eliminates corruption and ensures
transparency of power.
6. Laws as a Minimum, Logic as a Maximum
Modern legislation often represents a tangled system of norms where even lawyers struggle
to find a single truth. Bureaucracy becomes the biggest obstacle to development.
In the new society, laws should be:
- Transparent
- Understandable
- Minimal
What should prevail is logic , based on understanding the goals of society and human
interests. This will avoid many loopholes and abuses typical of capitalist systems.
Example: Tax legislation in the United States
The U.S. has one of the most complex tax systems in the world. Millions of hours are spent
annually preparing declarations, while corporations find loopholes to pay minimal taxes. This
creates inequality and reduces trust in power.
In the new society, the tax system will be simple, automated, and oriented toward
contribution to development. For example, the tax rate may depend on rating , not just
income.
7. End of Family Hierarchy – Beginning of Equal Opportunities
Family historically performed functions of upbringing, cultural transmission, and security.
However, in new conditions, it has become a source of structural inequality . Children born
into different families get different chances for success.
In the new society, a radical change in approach is proposed:
- Children are raised in specialized school-cities;
- Parents do not know their children, children do not know their parents;
- Education and upbringing are differentiated according to abilities and inclinations, not origin.
This approach excludes biased treatment and creates conditions for maximum realization of
each child’s potential.
Example: Sweden and Early Childhood Education
The Swedish early childhood education system shows that professional upbringing in early
age positively affects personality development. The state invests in children from birth,
providing access to quality education regardless of parental social status.
Example: Kibbutz upbringing in Israel
The Israeli experience of kibbutzim shows that children raised outside the family
environment can successfully develop and adapt in society. In kibbutzim, children lived in
groups, were raised by educators—not parents. This helped form a collective spirit and
responsibility for others.
Conclusion: The Necessity of Change
The capitalist system of priorities and power has long become an obstacle to progress. It
encourages egoism, increases inequality, blocks innovation, and forms a culture of
consumption instead of development.
The new model of social organization offers a solution: a society where everyone has a
purpose, value, and opportunity to develop; where management is done through balance
and data, not bureaucracy and corruption; where children are raised by professionals, not
random people; where power belongs to those who truly contribute to development.
This is not utopia—it is a necessary step forward. The need for change is evident. Humanity
must take this step—for survival, for the future, for ourselves.
