Disenchanted with politics?
New ways in politics are emerging everywhere in Europe. That’s why we’ve created this constantly growing website with the most exciting new models.
Why do we need new thinking?
Quantum Flirts, paradigms and clear glasses:
Quantum Flirts will surprise you as they are connecting thoughts and ideas in new ways.
Paradigms are the glasses we wear that colour our thinking and feeling about our world.
With clear glasses that let all the colours in, we can expect results that enrich everyone.
Quantum Flirts are an invitation to put on new glasses.
Why do we need new models?
The emerging models are an expression of human evolution in the 21st Century. We currently see the limits of our traditional ways in politics. Old systems have started crumbling to give way to new ones such as those you’ll discover here.
Common Themes
The new political models are amazingly diverse. You find them throughout Europe and beyond. There is a colourful range of imaginative approaches.
They do have one important thing in common though:
Their beliefs about HOW we ought to best run our communities and countries. Alternative beliefs then lead to new alternative practices.
Latest Models
