Competruism

There are indications that a new ideology is emerging in America which is capable of guiding society, through public policy, to a zenith in productivity.

Abstract

Competruism is an emerging ideology which has been produced by the synthesis of capitalistic and socialistic tenets in the American economy. The hybrid nature of this ideology can best be described through Hegel's dialectic: One fact (thesis) works against another fact (antithesis) to produce a wholly new fact (synthesis). That is, democratic capitalism (thesis) arose and was confronted by another powerful force, democratic socialism (antithesis). The result of this encounter is an entirely new ideology, competruism (synthesis). The underlying premise for this ideology states that: “Competruism will provide for a zenith in productivity by offering each entity of society (individual, organization) an equal opportunity to compete for the socio-economic rewards of the macro marketing system.” This doctrine provides mankind with a philosopher's stone to amalgamate capitalistic, democratic, socialistic and moral ideals into a common framework which can be used to optimize the survival chances of society in a peaceful environment.
