San Francisco Schiller Institute Conference Forum for a New Paradigm:
A Second American Revolution
by Harley Schlanger

In the midst of an intensifying general global crisis, with the dangers of World War III and mass starvation threatening the planet, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the founder of the International Schiller Institute, initiated a series of conferences, with the intention of creating a New Paradigm for mankind.

  • The Great Ontological Paradox
    by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

    '. . .we must, finally, shift our attention, away from a foolish, mere moneyeconomy, into what must now become, again, an actually healthy, physical one,' he writes.
