Abstract

As far as human history goes wealth and power are in the hands of a small selected group. This is the way the world is ruled. The idea of dividing the goods more or less equally among all people is a rather new concept.
If one wonders if it is possible to distribute the worlds assets and work more equally among all people, based for instance on the idea of a world based on socialist capitalism including human rights and sustainable development, then many questions have to be answered. Do people want more equal distribution of assets? Which world model leads to a more equal distribution? How to get this distribution? Can the small amount of people who now have the money and power be overruled by the majority of mankind? And how can this be done?
In order to get some answers to these questions a careful analysis of the issue should be made. What is going on in the world? Who is suffering? Who gets the benefits? Then one has to analyse what the people want and how to get there.
A way to do this is by using the Compram methodology. This scientific methodology is based on the theory of complexity and developed to analyse complexity, to give policy directions and the guide implementations.
