Our GJM Organizing Formula:
Idea Power +
Servant Leadership Power +
People Power +
Demonstration Power =
Money Power to the People
for:
- Effective Grassroots Democracy
- The Just Third Way toward a Free and Democratic Global
Order
- Peace through Justice
- The Universal Common Good
1. Idea Power, to mobilize educators to teach the
Just Third Way* paradigm.
2. Servant Leadership Power, to surface leaders committed
to social justice who will teach, communicate and unite with
others to transform laws and social systems so that they align
with the Just Third Way.
3. People Power, to engage the hearts and minds of
all interested people, to become Soldiers of Justice for peaceful
Just Third Way demonstrations.
4. Demonstration Power, to develop success
stories and build models of the Just Third Way at all levels
of human society.
Our GJM Organizing Formula will
be applied to the following inter-related ideas:
i. Monetary & Economic Reform, to help bring money
power to the people. Activities under this heading would include:
- Advocating a Second Bretton Woods Conference, to redesign
the global monetary system and end unpayable debt.
- Community-Based Currencies.
- Genuine
Wealth Accounting.
ii. A Secure Income to act as a safety net and help
eliminate poverty in the midst of plenty. Activities under
this heading include:
- A Negative Income Tax
- Exploration of other basic income concepts.
iii. Economic Democracy to help build participatory,
transparent and accountable structures involving various levels
of government. This would include:
- The Community Investment Corporation, for linking people
to land and advanced technology for building sustainable
citizen-owned Third Millennium communities.
- Meeting the challenges of global economic structures with
global governance structures.
iv. Justice Based Management to help build participatory,
transparent and accountable structures in business and non-governmental
organizations. These include:
- Justice-Based Management Corporations: for encouraging
more corporations to provide direct ownership stakes to
all their workers and stakeholders: to distribute profits
fully to their owners: that are structured for democratic
governance, transparency and accountability; and to develop
a sustainable servant leadership culture.
- Justice-Based Stakeholder Unions, for teaching and organizing
all stakeholder-owners for participatory democracy in corporate
governance.
v. Peace through Justice, in which Justice Based Management
policies and more are advocated as an important part of solving
trouble in the world's hot spots. This includes:
- The Abraham Federation, to implement a new nation-building
and economic development model in the West Bank, Gaza or
Jerusalem.
- Justice for Iraq.
Upcoming specific activities are under development here,
while ongoing activities are listed here.
* The Just Third Way transcends
the power-concentrating tendencies of both capitalism and
socialism, but it preserves the best of both systems. Logically,
it is an inclusive free market system that empowers all individuals
and families through expanded ownership.
