The Eros Effect
What happens when love and solidarity take over a society? Competition gives way to cooperation, hierarchy to equality, power to truth.
Ordinary people acting together can change anything.
We can find moments in every country’s history when millions of people come together to change the forces ruling their society. When such movement’s aspirations and visions become real lived experiences beyond political slogans some of the most exhilarating feelings imaginable of love for one’s fellow human being can ignite and bring rapid social change. This is the Eros Effect.
