Ben McLeish - The Innovation War | London Z Day 2011 from Jason Gleeson on Vimeo.
This lecture focusses on the societal mechanisms that block innovation in the world. By way of multiple examples of this trend throughout history into the modern day, three main blocking mechanisms are presented.
The realisation of these blocks points to a very specific reorientation that needs to occur in global life in order to become truly innovative, truly sustainable and truly humane.
It is the shift towards a society founded upon the scientific method and technology applied for human concern and the environment which will resolve almost all the problems in the world - accepted on a global and individual level.
