Description

""Grounded in the perspective of humanistic systems science rather than any single restrictive field, it is the chief journal in the world today wholly devoted to the openly creative, non-doctrinaire exploration of all aspects of evolution. The result is the amazing range of articles by heavily credentialed as well as independent creative thinkers detailed on this website in A Brief History of GERG.

Ervin Laszlo is the journal’s founder and long time Editor."

History

"Is it possible the new science of chaos theory can be used to push through the escalating global chaos to a peaceful new order on the other side? That is, can it be used to build a new prosocial, action-oriented theory of human evolution that can bring West and East together to use as a road map to help guide our species through chaos to peace and the much better world?

So began the still almost wholly unknown saga of The General Evolution Research Group, which over the final quarter of the 20th century drew together 48 natural, social, and systems scientists from 12 countries to discuss and try to build the “full spectrum, action-oriented,” or fully human theory of evolution."
