Veranstaltungshinweis: Prechter in London / 'Socionomics', 18.03.04
-->Socionomics: Social Mood Is the Engine of Social Activity
The London School of Economics and Political Science
Thursday 18 March, 2004
1:15 - 4:00 PM in the ‘New Theatre’ (E171)
What if the common understanding of how events happen is backwards, and the correct perspective could reveal the next phase in politics, technology, and economics? Or even in music, sports, and TV shows. What if you could predict social trends -- from pop culture to geo-politics -- better than anyone else?
Consider the late 1990s, for instance. We witnessed the formation of the European Monetary Union; a homemaker became a billionaire CEO and a celebrity; globalization and the “new economy” defined the hopes of international trade, many people believed that peace in the Middle East was at hand and David Blaine’s buried alive stunt was greeted with support and encouragement.
Yet just as everyone thought the best of all possible worlds had finally come to pass, a dramatic reversal occurred in each of these trends and others. Today, the EU Stability Pact is looking shaky, Martha Stewart could wind up in prison, the only thing “new” about the economy is the mysteriously weak job growth, bombing blasts appear daily in the headlines and David Blaine, suspended in a glass cage, endured verbal assaults and had garbage thrown at him.
In his speech to the London School of Economics and Politics, Robert Prechter will show how Socionomics provides the correct perspective on these trends and others - everything from declining birthrates to Japanese horror movies, to the “effects” of the Enron debacle on financial markets. In short, he’ll tell you how the world really works.
Robert Prechter will give this lecture on Thursday, March 18, from 1:15 - 4:00 p.m. at the London School of Economics and Political Science. The address is the New Theater (E171) Houghton Street, London, WC2A 2AE.
Admission is free, but seating is limited. If you are in the area, please feel free to come by. Please let us know if you plan to attend by emailing mailbag@socionomics.org (be sure that LSE is in the subject line).
