Point 21: Metapolitical Ethics. Life Over Borders
from Peaceful World | Peace Education · host Daniel Che | Peaceful World
In this episode, we unpack Point #21 of the Peaceful World 1.0 Manifesto: Metapolitics and Ethical Expertise. We discuss why modern politics is trapped in the "Prometheus Gap": possessing the technology of gods while guided by the instincts of cavemen, perpetually dividing the world into "us" and "them."The world of the future demands a transition to metapolitics — a system where human life sits at the absolute apex of the value hierarchy, while state borders and partisan interests are merely secondary tools.The Prometheus Gap: Why our navigational maps are hopelessly outdated and how the "paleolithic brain" manages nuclear arsenals.The PCIA Tool: Unpacking the "Peace and Conflict Impact Assessment" protocol. How to make ethical expertise a mandatory filter for any state decree or reform.The Overton Window and the Thomas Theorem: How our definitions create our reality. Why defining war as a "systemic anomaly" forces the political system to transform.Life Over Borders: Why "national interests" can no longer justify killing, and how metapolitics turns governance from a battle for power into an engineering emergency service.
