{"product_id":"9781621480280","title":"The Social Future: Culture, Equality, and the Economy: 6 Public Lectures in Zurich October 24 to 30, 1919","description":"In 1919, shortly after World War I, the structure of society and the economy, both in Germany and globally, became a primary concern of Rudolf Steiner. In addition to writing The Threefold Social Order, in which he presented his ideas for social renewal, Steiner also gave lecture courses that year, including The Social Question as a Question of Consciousness (CW 189); Impulses of the Past and Future in Social Events (CW 190); Spiritual-Scientific Treatment of Social and Pedagogical Questions (CW 192); The Esoteric Aspect of the Social Question (CW 193); The Social Question (CW 328); as well as others and the lectures in this book, The Social Future. \u003cp\u003eThat year, Rudolf Steiner also published his \"Appeal to the German People and the Cultural World,\" which began: \"Resting on secure foundations with the assurance of enduring for untold ages\"- this is what the German people believed of their empire, founded half a century ago. Today they can see only its ruins. Deep searching of the soul must follow from such an experience.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn The Social Future, Rudolf Steiner presents what he saw as the underlying social problems of his time and offers his approach to solutions for a more successful and equitable social future. What he has to say is remarkably suited to our time, almost a century later. His predictions have come to pass, yet few of his recommendations have been implemented on any large scale.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steiner Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47054287012080,"sku":"9781621480280","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781621480280_p0.jpg?v=1763860390","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781621480280","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
