Previous Episode: The Family State

With the acknowledgement that as human beings we have both material and spiritual needs.  An economy is needed which would be tailored to fulfill those needs. Occupational Organicity; the idea that society is constructed along the lines of the human body, containing a plethora of individuals with different talents, skills, and occupations, all having separate tasks but working together for a common purpose and goal within the same State structure. This will address the material aspects of our existence through its shared decision making structure and management of competition; with the aim of avoiding the cutthroat nature of modern business along with the desire to maximize profits through the reduction of wages and benefits.  While Capitalism commodifies the individual through reducing the worker to nothing more than a part within the production process. Occupational Organicity recognizes the skills possessed by each individual as being an inherently valuable part of society; guaranteeing through reliable employment the ability to improve upon that skill while securely supporting a family. Through the Guilds the individual becomes conscious of the link that exists the State, Nation, and Individual.
