Why the Method of the ‘Coincidence of Opposites’ Can Avoid Thermonuclear War—The Case of Food for All

There is an adage common to many cultures, ‘those who have eyes, let them see,’ and yet, millions of fellow citizens are blindly stumbling along, as the world tilts to nuclear war, along with the worsening pandemic and famine. In the discussion, we will take up the urgency to re-connect with reality in all respects, as required to stop the drive toward war, and as seen in the physical economic questions of daily food for eight+ billion people. Why are the world’s biggest, baddest banks, financial and agro-cartels dangling the buying and selling of “carbon footprints” as the “transition to green farming and a new world food system”? Use your eyes! Use the method of the ‘Coincidence of Opposites,’ referring to the approach set forward by Nicholas of Cusa (15th c,) which was embodied in so many concrete economic programs spelled out by statesman Lyndon LaRouche, and which are strategically up to date still today. Joining Dennis Speed will be Marcia Merry Baker, who is actively involved in projects with the Committee for the Coincidence of Opposites of the Schiller Institute.
