Publisher's Synopsis
'The 12 Angular Points of Social Justice and Peace: Social Policy for the 21st Century'-2017 Revised, Updated and Reformatted Edition-presents an articulate peace agenda that contains twelve distinct proposals for reducing violence to a minimum while promoting and encouraging pleasure-seeking behaviors both in children and adults. The proposals are based upon research evidence of the often overlooked bioenergetic roots of violence demonstrating how the historical turndown of the pleasure function through morality/moralism resulted in an inevitable upsurge of violence through the neurodissociative brain. Newest research on early tactile deprivation conducted by James W. Prescott, Ashley Montagu, Frederick Leboyer, Michel Odent and others namely shows the correlation between mother-infant affectional bonding, tactile pleasure and breastfeeding for the development of the healthy, neurointegrative brain and the building of peaceful/affectionate behaviors. The most important research results are: -Violence is learnt, not inborn, and not part of natural human behavior; -Violence is a response of the biosystem to the denial of pleasure/desire; -Violence is a collective malfunctioning of a society that replaced love by morality. The audience for this book is the general public, one one hand, professionals in education and psychiatry, on the other, and last not least government counsel responsible for new ideas in social policy making, and interested to be inspired by a new kind of agenda that does away with 'moralizing' and with the age-old belief that the human being was an 'impossible' one and had to be bettered, reformed, and 'civilized.' The Peace Agenda consists of the following 12 Proposals: 01/12 - Crime Prevention 02/12 - The Possible Human 03/12 - Fostering Public Sanity 04/12 - Respecting Natural Intimacy 05/12 - Serving Children 06/12 - More Public Education 07/12 - Free Education 08/12 - Politically Neutral Science 09/12 - Humanism and Realism 10/12 - Promoting Pleasure-Seeking Behaviors 11/12 - Male Affection as a Peace Conductor 12/12 - Fostering Permissive Education
