Book excerpt: People today find themselves in a cultural dilemma. On the one hand, it is becoming increasingly clear that man can no longer afford to 'carry on as before'. On the other hand, his supernatural cultural organisation has become so complex that he cannot change it in a radical way without risking a cultural crisis. Therefore, there is no realistic solution today other than the targeted transformation of contemporary culture into a natural democracy of symbiotic equal rights. This book not only explains how humans ended up in today's cultural situation, but also shows a way how man can realize a natural democracy of symbiotic equal rights.
