In the long historical trajectory of human civilization, two primary forces have most extensively controlled and shackled the human mind and society: capitalism and institutional religion.

However, with the modernizing energy of the late 19th
1. The Global Shift of Labor and the Rise of Asian Reality The geopolitics and economics of the twenty-first century are undergoing a major paradigm shift. The advanced capitalist world, such as Europe and North America, has "de-industrialized" its own territories and shifted its production systems to the
1. The Origin of Consciousness: The Illusion of Explanation From the very inception of the division of labor in history, we observe two distinct forms of human existence—manual labor on one side, and mental labor on the other. It was during this initial phase, when mental labor emerged as
