Title: Planetary Project
Author: Alexsandr V. Bezgodov
Publisher: XLibrisUK
Genre: Political Science
Format: Ebook
This monograph
discusses current global economic and social issues. It describes the essence
of the Planetary Project, based on the critique of the Concept of Sustainable
Development. A model is proposed for solving global problems through global
human unification aimed at saving the planet Earth from future cataclysms and
catastrophe for present and future generations. The Planetary Project is in
essence a paradigm of the world’s harmonious development. It is based on an
integrated economy and rent incomes from planetary and intellectual resources
held in planetary ownership. The Planetary Project provides solutions to
globalisation problems caused by unrestrained economic growth and one-sided
development of some national economies. The Planetary Project proposes a just
system of world income distribution including rent revenues from planetary
resources. This distribution system will work in the interests of all
countries, including Asian and African countries, some of which experience
serious socio-economic problems. New planetary economic resources and
mechanisms will be able to: save the Earth’s biosphere; improve its ecology;
and free humanity from hunger, epidemic diseases, and the threat of a Third
World War. They will help people unite in the name of universal values of life,
the harmony between civilisation and nature, and the welfare of present and
future generations. Developing Planetary Project ideas could lead to creating a
serious research tradition and a wide life-affirming and peace-loving social
movement.

Question1- Can you please tell us about your book and why you
wrote it?
Our two-volume volume is devoted to the
systematization and analysis of moral and moral views of Russian cosmists of
the natural-science direction. In them, we found those key ideas, values and
principles that, in our opinion, can be put in the basis of a fundamentally new
ethic, the ethics of the near future and the ethics of the desired development
perspective of our biosocial species. We call it planetary, because
it should contribute to the spiritual
unification of the peoples of the whole Earth for the sake of saving ourselves
and our environment, in order to achieve understanding and solidarity in
solving global problems.
In the teachings of Nikolai Fedorov,
Nikolai Umov, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, Konstantin Wentzel, Vladimir Vernadsky,
Nikolai Kholodny, Alexander Chizhevsky, Ivan Efremov, we also found
confirmation of key theses of our original paradigm of a planetary universal
civilization. It has been developed since 2005 by the Scientific Center
"Planetary Project" in St. Petersburg, and since 2016 the Institute
for Planetary Development in Dubai.
This allows us in a certain sense to
consider ourselves the successors and successors of the Russian cosmists, the
heirs of their grandiose spiritual and historical mission. In addition to
interpreting some fragments of cosmic philosophy, we also disclose in our book
our own plan for planetary ethics. Explain its purpose and tasks, we write
about its design and purpose, its fundamental differences from classical and
modern ethical systems. The vector of the evolution of planetary ethics is seen
to us as a movement from the tasks of salvation to the tasks of creation in the
light of the main planetary-cosmic value - the value of life. We wrote this
book for those who are interested in Russian and world humanitarian culture
(since cosmists are a phenomenon not only locally Russian, but also global),
who are not indifferent to the fate of mankind and our planet, who are looking
for answers to acute worldview questions. The monograph is published in Russian
and in English, respectively, in Russia and the United Kingdom. It will be sold
all over the world, both in book stores and in the electronic version via the
Internet site. Among the tasks that we set ourselves, taking up this work, was
this: to present a new perspective of the legacy of Russian cosmism abroad,
where, generally speaking, they are not particularly familiar with it.
Question2- What were some of the biggest challenges you faced
writing it?
It was not easy to resist the
temptation to selflessly immerse yourself in reading the reference literature -historical,
philosophical and culturological - on Russian cosmism. But we managed to keep
the clarity and purity of our own perception of the primary sources. We took
the liberty and risk of an independent, even solitary and to a certain extent
isolated study, analysis and interpretation of them in order to identify and deconstruct
the aspect of interest - the moral and moral thought of Russian cosmists of the
natural sciences, their ethical views.
Question3- Do you plan subsequent books?
Yes, we plan within the framework of the above-mentioned goals,
but it is too early to disclose details and details.
Question4- When and why did you begin writing?
When I realized that my thoughts deserve a
long life. When I came to understand the value of my ideas and the possible
benefits for contemporaries and descendants.
Question5- What is your greatest strength as an author?
Co-authors can only be those who see, think, feel in one
direction. At us it turns out. The power of the author is in the ability to see
and describe in all details, as accurately and expressively as possible, what
else does not or may not exist, which, generally speaking, does not exist and
can not exist in the way of ordinary things. This is about the ideal
objectivity, whether it be an artistic image, a scientific hypothesis or a
theoretical concept.
Question6- Did writing this book teach you anything?
The ability to examine the subject of study from different angles,
sometimes even going beyond its original methodological setting, hypothesis and
basic research model. Build alternative models of description and interpretation,
doing experiments inside the experiment and improvising.
