It is true that in our time, politics and old ideologies have become stronger than economics and trade. Big breakthrough ideas stagnate and become less and less common, the forced return to old technologies devalues the previous achievements, which are becoming less common.

As the world moves towards a multi-polar production system based on a network of global production chains and the largest companies in each country joining together to manage research and development, production and trade, small, medium and even large regional companies will be liquidated or merged with global giants, which will mean the end of small, medium and even large regional companies. As a result of the dominance of monopolies, complex and expensive technologies, expensive development and management, market orientation for immediate results, the possibilities of discovering new technological principles, deep use and development of existing technologies were limited. This negates the possibility of breakthrough research with unpredictable results.

Compared to the competitive nature of the emerging multipolar world, there is a trend towards consolidation, nationalisation, isolation and fragmentation of the program of positive change, while protectionism and national selfishness dominate the discussion of issues such as climate change, development and investment in high technology.

The main purpose and reason for the existence of the monetary system is to maintain a balance between supply and demand. In the modern world, the economy is primarily driven by consumption and money capital. However, the current monetary system is unsustainable because it is based on unsustainable production and consumption, unsustainable public debt and unsustainable social programs. This system is unsustainable because it creates unsustainable debt for the public and household sectors. Institutionalisation of artificial intelligence, potential for massive damage, growing use of software in all areas of human activity, over-specialisation and fragmentation of the scientific community, growing use of robots, growing threat of robotisation of the economy, increasing role of the state in the process of scientific and technological progress, automation and over-complication of development processes and the introduction of technology into the economy led to the failure of the technological revolution in many developing countries.

Undoubtedly, there are a number of other obstacles that hinder the successful dissemination of knowledge, which complicates technical progress, leads to its rise in price and slowdown.

These factors, in turn, become a recipe for the destruction of relations between science and society, between the scientific elite and the rest of the population. People’s minds are becoming more and more like fortress walls, accepting only those who belong to the same tribe, largely rejecting outsiders and refusing to hear any criticism of their own views. It also prevents them from integrating with other cultures and points of view. The fact that they are isolated makes them more vulnerable to exploitation by the elite and makes them easy targets for manipulation and recruitment. The introduction of such viruses into the body of society prevents it from developing a balanced immune system. One of the main factors in this situation is that the main beneficiaries of technological progress are elites, and this leads to the creation of social inequality, both within and between countries. As a result, the population of many countries has reached a point where they can no longer tolerate this state of affairs, as it has reached a critical point. In conditions when the «Dollar» has lost its relevance, which led to the transition to the «euro-yuan», the world’s largest banks are going to move their headquarters to Asia, the US is losing its leadership in the technology sector and will lose it completely, the average salary in the US and Europe falls, the rise of China and India in the next ten years is inevitable, and the periphery will no longer matter, it will be developed and integrated into the global multipolar production system in a short time period. As a result of the dollar crisis, the United States has lost its role as the world’s reserve currency, and the banking system is in a state of collapse. Markets without the US national currency will no longer be able to trade, and the dollar will either have to be withdrawn from the international market or it will be devalued, but American companies and their shareholders, who have accumulated huge profits over the past decades, will lose a lot of money. Some companies have already begun to transfer their funds to foreign banks, and the balance of payments is increasingly moving towards a deficit. The US Federal Reserve System is filled to the brim with dollars, and there is not enough demand in the economy to support the value of the dollar. The US government is also running out of money, largely because it has spent trillions of dollars fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and other hotspots. US banks are losing their money and their lending function.

All this undoubtedly limits technological progress at the present time. This may be due to a number of other factors, including:

– A continuation of the old worldview, in which technology is still largely regarded as an accessory of material wealth, serving its production and consumption, and not as a substance of growth, accumulation of knowledge and development of new areas of collective life.

– Market dominance in technology generates monopolistic trends in knowledge, restricts the circulation of information, and limits the spread of advanced technology systems.

– The use of old ideas that hold the scientific and technical organism in the same way as the economy has led to a drop in the political significance of science, which ultimately had a negative impact on technology itself.

– The distribution of resources for basic research and development is not optimal, which hinders the acceleration of a number of research and technological discoveries. Research funding is too dependent on private capital.

When the division of labor is transferred to the area of complex technologies and management, this is further exacerbated by the high cost of these technologies. Now, to develop a new technological system, it is necessary to create a team consisting of experts in different fields, flexible, adaptive and ready to work together; who are willing to work according to the needs and performance of technology, and not just their own, who seek to improve and develop technology to the maximum, in accordance with the highest principles of intellectual honesty, scientific rigour, and regardless of time, cost, or their employment status. This is not possible in a market economy. It is true that these conditions have been achieved by a number of the world’s leading companies and laboratories, which have achieved historic scientific achievements and great development. At the same time, it is also true that the market is a factor preventing the formation of such teams. Previously, people had only primary and secondary education, and now they have higher education, but people feel that they are unhappy, but they do not know why. At the same time, a high percentage when a person receives a good education, believes that he becomes a professional, enters a job that does not have deep meaning by modern standards, and, moreover, a person himself is sure of this, he is sure that he is not useful. Many are very unhappy with this, but they have no other choice but to come to terms with this situation. Although there are many good jobs, even with relatively high wages, the middle class is disappearing and getting poorer and one of the main problems facing the world today is the problem of poverty.

People are losing confidence in a system that allows the very rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer. The gap between rich and poor is getting bigger and bigger. Many people do not have the resources to meet their basic needs, yet anyone with more than they need is rich, and those with less than they need are poor.

Currently, with the current model of public funding, social services are an unsustainable model and may not be sustainable for the future. Most people will not be able to live a decent life after retirement because the cost of living is so high that they will lose the comfort and security they had.

Future generations will be able to pay for the services of the older generation only if the excesses of the current generation are eliminated and they get rid of their excess wealth. If this becomes common knowledge, then the older generation will not have the confidence to save more than they can spend. It’s a vicious circle that will never end.

One of the main causes of social problems is the lost social rights that were earlier in the past, with new high quality technologies becoming more advanced than what was once available.

The main reason for such realities is the collapse of the ideologies that have become the standard for distinguishing left and right. The left is those who stand for governmental and social justice and equality, while the right is those who stand for the economy, free market power, and free market politics. The collapse of ideologies has led to the exploitation of the monopoly of ideological systems that were previously protected by the two strongest ideologies: capitalism and communism. The current situation is a time of radical change. The world is in a revolutionary moment when existing power structures are being challenged by both left and right, and the rise of the right is a response to the victory of the left. This, in turn, leads to a radical upheaval of established political, economic and ideological systems, the rise of Antifa, the rise of the «alternative right», the emergence of Chinese and Russian leaders as an alternative to US political ones. In the midst of the media-propaganda offensive against the Russian Federation, a clear order was given to the international media to take on the Republic of Turkey, telling Turkey: «Do you want to become a member of the EU? Well, here’s the door. And they were expelled. The splitting and collapsing EU is sabotaging Turkey’s negotiations, developing a «fortress» of Europe. This is the first time in history that the EU has been split by the leaders of the member states of the Union. The split continues to this day. America’s pressure on the EU, the split and arm wrestling between the leaders and states that are members of the EU. EU leaders have dispelled the myth of «unity» and «cooperation». EU leaders are trying to avoid war and do not avoid confrontation among themselves and tolerate US pressure.

The process began in the 1950s and reached its peak in the 90s of the last century, against the backdrop of the collapse of the USSR and its ideological system, the financial system of the West, the ideological system

The West and the International System of the West. Until now, it has been an eternal process, destroying the old and forming the new, has led to the fall of the world’s largest ideological system, as well as its financial and political systems, and it will not end until a new world order is established. The situation is complicated by the fact that the global economic, financial and political crisis is not yet over. With a radical reshuffling of the world, the crisis, especially acute in the periphery, is rapidly spreading to the established industrial countries, but is still under control. A sign of the crisis that has broken out in the developed industrial countries is the fact that the top officials responsible for the crisis have not been punished or even fired, but the criminal use of the state treasury continues, leading to social inequality. and concentration of wealth. However, we have an obligation to manage this process and try to complete it as soon as possible, instead of others using it to their advantage. This is a historical process, and it will drag on for some time, but this is not the end of the story, as we live in a globalised, interconnected world, and a multipolar world is emerging. The hegemony of the West in the political, economic and ideological spheres, the general collapse of the liberal-capitalist system, the collapse of the West and the collapse of the American empire. The results of this upheaval will be beneficial to the human race, but only because of the extreme crisis. The contours of the new world will appear after the resolution of the left-right contradictions, which will take years. However, many decades will pass before we can fully enjoy the benefits of the collapse of the old, because the collapse of the old before the birth of the new is followed by a time of turbulence, which will still be very painful and destructive, after which we can enjoy the fruits of the birth of the new.

In this context, the lack of information exchange between various parties and the destruction of the positive impact of high technology development on economic growth, especially the lack of cooperation in high technology development, are becoming more and more noticeable. In addition, the dominance of the service sector and its high level of employment, which is not very sensitive to automation and new technologies, will increase. In parallel, the cost of labor will increase due to the cost of technological development, which in turn requires an organised, educated and well-managed workforce, and the replacement of labor by capital will increase. In addition, the cost of education, research and development will increase, given the dominance of applied research in higher education. At the same time, the slow pace of technological progress in the field of information technology and the dominance of existing technologies will further reduce the speed of progress. Lack of financial resources and a tough economy that is not very sensitive to new technologies will continue to be a problem.

Our current socio-economic model is based on the system of exploitation of the industrial society based on the following three principles:

1. Every person has an equal right to happiness.

2. Every person has an equal right to equal use of the Earth’s natural resources.

3. Any consumption is justified if it leads to happiness.

For a long time, more than a hundred years, the modernisation of industrialism and its socio-economic model were based on these three principles that are still valid today, which are the basic foundations of the current system.

This model brought with it a number of fundamental lifestyle changes and had a significant impact on the way we live and think. For example, it changed the way we conceptualise land and began to treat it as a resource that belongs to us residents. As a result, we began to treat ourselves as owners of the land, giving us a sense of ownership of the land.

This socio-economic model is based on an unsustainable imbalance (economic and financial, social and political) that is collapsing. Unsustainable consumption and useless production, uncontrolled consumption and underconsumption, over-infrastructure and under-infrastructure, the gap between rich and poor, overconsumption, lack of opportunity and choice, lack of time and choice, lack of health and security are all becoming more and more evident. Over the past few years, we have constantly lost opportunities because we do not use them. There is growing dissatisfaction with the government largely due to unmet needs, worsening social and economic problems, and a lack of trust in political institutions and leadership, resulting in citizens becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the government and losing trust in the government. As a result of a radical reshuffle in the established political, economic and ideological systems of society, the established power structures are under attack from all sides.

It is positive that in all this, the world has recently experienced a technological revolution associated with the advent of the information age, thanks to which others can learn from others and have access to technology via the Internet, where the whole world is a virtual laboratory, and knowledge is available to everyone. Now even the most isolated countries have access to the outside world through the Internet and satellite portals.

Chapter 2

The world is unfair, but progress is not inevitable. Society must develop in a sustainable way, there must be basic rules and obligations that must be observed.

Progress cannot be resisted. Progress is a broad concept, it is not only what is productive, but also what can be destructive. Progress is a great word, but at the same time history shows that progress is a form of violence. The concept of progress is not just an idea, it is a complex and controversial concept. Progress is a double edged sword, progress is a value that propagates to variables. Progress can be good or bad. Progress is the basis for the birth of new ideas, progress is the basis for the birth of changes and new opportunities. Progress is the root of social inequality, social exclusion and social violence. As a result, the notion that we can control progress is a delusion. We must ask ourselves the question: Do we need progress and do we need development in general of everything that surrounds us?

In ancient Greek philosophy, there are two concepts: being and becoming. Being is that which is eternal, and that is actually what is most important. And becoming is secondary, changeable. And that’s how much being is in becoming, so becoming is so good. That is, development in itself, it in itself is not a fact that is good. If this change from something to something contains more of the eternal, then it is good. If there is little eternal in him, then this is no progress, this is actually a regression. And the development of Western political thought and, in general, Western philosophy has come to the point that in modern times, being as such is generally discarded, and good or bad is already within this becoming. What is it about: everything from which development comes is good, more precisely, everything from which it is bad, and everything to which it is good, that is, everything that was yesterday is necessarily bad, everything that will be tomorrow is necessarily good. Because progress itself has become a religion. Progress itself has become eternal, we believe that any qualitative change is necessarily progress, although a qualitative change can be a regression. We can move from something to something and go down. But there are social relations in which there should be no changes, that there are things, primarily related to ethics, which are based on such transcendental truths that should not be revised. The new socio-economic model should be sustainable, equal and fair, and Western civilisation says that everything should be reviewed constantly. This permanent revision makes the current socio-economic model even more unstable and is almost in a state of collapse.

Chapter 3

There is a need to revisit the ancient Greek concepts and introduce new most important modern meanings into being. While green projects are virtually unheard of, this does not mean that green sustainable development is gone forever. There is no doubt that sustainable development is an objective necessity. This is something that will continue regardless of how current global events play out now or in the future.

The term «green sustainable development» was first used and coined by Professor Michael Charles Tobias, President of the non-governmental organisation Green World Campaign between 1984 and 2003. In August 1987, Gro Harlem Brundtland, in its report to the UN, first used the term «sustainable development» as «development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs» in the context of what is now called the «green economy».

The principle of sustainable development was further defined and developed after the publication of the Brundtland report and in 1992 was included in the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development. Further, the Green Sustainable Development (GSD) concept was developed by Professor Kwon-Soo Ha in 2002 as an approach to clean energy and an alternative to fossil fuels to achieve sustainable development. Professor Kwon-Su Ha believed that at the beginning of the 21st century, humanity faced a serious crisis in the control of global warming and it was time to create a new global system of sustainable development. However, Professor Kwon-Soo Ha noted the excessive use of the term «green», when everything that is green is considered good, and any movement of green is considered progressive. First of all, due to such a misunderstanding of the meaning of the term «green», various interpretations and not entirely correct use of this term were formulated, which, according to Professor Kwon-Su Ha, became problematic. In 2003 in New York City, the GREEN TIDE conference participants were introduced to this idea and decided to use the concept of green sustainable development in an existing global network of projects.

Green and sustainable development creates a pyramidal structure of the population, where the top layer of this structure is occupied by people involved in green sustainable development, who follow an appropriate lifestyle. The second level is occupied by people who support sustainable green development through their purchasing, advertising and promotion decisions. The third level is occupied by people whose lifestyle is complemented by the lifestyle of sustainable green development, but are not yet part of the undertaking. The fourth level is occupied by those who did not choose this way of life, but were influenced by it. The fifth level is occupied by those who have learned about the existence of green sustainable development and have accepted its characteristics. The sixth level is the base of the pyramid and the people who were not affected in any way.

Green communities are a response to the urgent need of mankind to unite around a common concern for the environment and a sustainable future, as well as finding a balance between economic growth and the relationship between man and nature.

Achieving such a goal requires not only the support of governments, private business and the general public, but also a clear understanding of the problems and the need for action. An important mechanism for communication and involvement is the presentation of green communities as new ideas and concepts, models that deal with issues of sustainable development and environmental conservation.

For a long time, the solution to the problem of sustainable development was: «More research is needed.» The solution for green sustainability sustainability is to act on what we know and don’t need to explore.

The solution to the problem of sustainable development lies not in additional research, but in the implementation of what we already know and what does not need to be researched.

«Green sustainable development» is the concept of solving the problem of sustainable development in the 21st century.

Ecosystems provide a wide range of «goods» for human well-being, including clean water and air, food, medicine, and recreation.

The health of ecosystems also affects human well-being. Ecosystem goods and services are often interconnected, so that a change in one can affect many others. For example, the destruction of forests to provide more pasture for livestock reduces the area of land available for cultivation, thereby reducing food production, which contributes to food insecurity, and the fall in food production contributes to deforestation, and so on.

Industrial activities create waste and pollution that adversely affect ecosystems. For example, mining, metallurgical and industrial activities release heavy metals into the environment. These heavy metals can be toxic to humans and animals, damage ecosystem health and destroy biodiversity.

Controlling the negative impacts of human activities on ecosystems and restoring degraded ecosystems is necessary to sustain ecosystem goods and services. This includes the sustainable use of natural resources and the restoration of degraded ones.

The isolation of the world as a whole and the multiplication of restricted areas do not create a single investment space, they create an investment gap that cannot be filled without a unified innovative infrastructure. The absence of a unified global infrastructure for the formation of an open investment space inevitably leads to the preservation of backward technologies, low efficiency and environmental destruction. Global supply chains are breaking down, which does not allow the creation of modern logistics, production and supply technologies, as well as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, communications and other digital technologies. This is what creates a gap between developed and developing countries, which is then used as an excuse for unfair trade, sanctions, trade wars and other negative phenomena. The lack of effective solutions for the interaction of disparate parties leads to completely unpredictable behaviour on the world stage.

A significant change from past environmental efforts is the need to innovate, to create a new social order that will lead to a different and better future. The change will be influenced by the development of «green» industries, «green» enterprises and services, as well as the creation of «green» jobs and issues of «green consumerism», developing channels of communication with business and consumers.
