Erich von Werner society and Behavioral Capitalism

Behavioural Capitalism is a variant of capitalism in which human action becomes the central factor for the production and provision of goods and services. In isolated cases, and this should be noted, there are already further attempts to give the new era a verbalized form, of which in particular Shoshana Zuboff’s concept of SurveillanceCapitalism is to be mentioned, but this, and forgive me this word, does not go far enough to sufficiently explain the corresponding global changes and also concentrates strongly on possible negative aspects of a raging development, which can be both a blessing and a curse, the truth usually lies in the middle.

Behaviour means acting, tolerating as well as not acting. The processes can be conscious or unconscious. It is influenced and produced by stimuli. All of this may sound terribly abstract, but on closer inspection, behavior has always been used as a raw material, though not always so. We do not want to refer to the sale of indulgences in the Middle Ages, but to the insurance industry. It is aprime example of how the behaviour of the customer, often in the person of the representative, is researched, then evaluated by the company, and finally used to improve existing products, i.e. insurance, and to create new services. Only in this way were creative developments such as safeguarding one’s own death conceivable. Since these are immaterial, i.e. intangible goods, the behaviour of interested parties and customers is of outstanding importance. You can see this Video explaining what Behavioral Capitalism is.

Behavioral Capitalism concept was created by Andreas Herteux, a german economist, philosopher, publicist and author. Andreas Herteux founded Erich von Werner Society , a group dedicated to constantly analyze the global situation, arrange it, prepares it and designs appropriate models as well as theories for the representation of the reality. The Erich von Werner Society makes a significant contribution to the understanding of current and future world events.

Behavioural Capitalismis basedon the raw material and production factor behaviour, which is created by the reaction of the individual to stimuli. He must first win this by skimming. There have always been such attempts, but it was the technological progress driven by the change of times that made automated harvesting in large quantities possible.

Behavioural Capitalismhas therefore becomefirmly established, but without being perceived as such. State-of-the-art technology enables a never-before-seen embedding that can penetrate into the most intimate areas of the individual. A development that requires closer scrutiny and must not continueto take place in the shadows, for an unleashed Behavioural Capitalismwould be an even stronger force than Financial Capitalism ever was. He would be a means of domination. You can buy the book on Amazon : Behavioral Capitalism on Amazon – Direct Link(no affiliate).

The Erich von Werner Society assumes that the planet and the people on it is approaching a new era. These changes are because of or are accelerated by factors, which in combination and interaction with each other will trigger a new era: Overpopulation and missing life perspectives (e.g. due to the demographic development on the African continent). Few of the world’s most threatening problems : Gender Inequality: Due to gender inequality, education and economic opportunity are inaccessible to many women of all backgrounds. About 150 countries have laws that discriminate against women’s rights. Underrepresented in governmental bodies, women only hold an average of 23 percent in parliamentary seats. Children are key to our future success, yet many across the world do not have access to some of their most basic needs and approximately six million children die each year before reaching the age of five. Child health and education go hand in hand. Malnutrition of children leads to permanent physiological damage, known colloquially as ‘stunting’. Children who are hungry cannot concentrate and, thus, cannot learn. Children who are chronically hungry develop cognitive difficulties, which means they might never be able to achieve their actual academic or professional potential.
