Resume:

1.- Transformative Work: Dr. Riane Eisler’s work in expanding human rights theory to include women and children has globally transformed organizations, policies, and lives.

2.- AI and Values: The development and application of AI depend on guiding values embedded in cultural, social, and economic systems, emphasizing the need for equitable and sustainable practices.

3.- Pandemic Insights: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the fragility, lack of resilience, and inequities of current social, cultural, and economic systems, underscoring the need for systemic change.

4.- New Normal: Eisler advocates for "partnerism," a new normal emphasizing partnership over domination, fostering equitable, sustainable, and less violent societies.

5.- Partnership Model: The partnership model focuses on new thinking to address societal issues, moving away from domination-based frameworks that have historically led to repression and violence.

6.- Holistic Lens: Eisler introduces a holistic lens through the partnership-domination social scale, promoting inclusivity and considering the whole of society, including marginalized groups like women and children.

7.- Childhood Foundation: Early childhood experiences shape brain development and future behavior, making nurturing and non-violent parenting crucial for fostering caring and cooperative societies.

8.- Gender Dynamics: Constructed gender roles affect social, economic, and technological issues, with equitable treatment of all genders being vital for a fair and productive society.

9.- Economic Measures: Current economic measures like GDP are flawed, failing to account for the value of care work and environmental sustainability; new metrics like Social Wealth Economic Indicators are needed.

10.- Caring Economics: A new caring economics of partnerism rewards caring for people and nature, emphasizing the importance of early childhood care and education for societal well-being.

11.- Systemic Inefficiency: Domination economics, characterized by resource misdistribution and wasteful spending on warfare, creates artificial scarcities and hinders societal progress.

12.- Domination to Partnership: Shifting from domination to partnership in childhood, gender roles, economics, and narratives is essential for building a sustainable and equitable future.

13.- Personal Impact: Eisler’s experiences of Nazi persecution and witnessing poverty in Cuba fueled her passion for research and advocacy for more just and caring societal systems.

14.- False Narratives: Historical narratives that violence and male dominance are inherent to human nature are false; evidence shows early societies were more egalitarian and peaceful.

15.- Modern History: Modern history shows a movement towards partnership systems, countered by domination resistance, with every progressive movement challenging traditions of domination.

16.- Human Capacity: Humans have an inherent capacity for caring and sharing, contradicting narratives of inevitable violence and dominance; nurturing environments can enhance these traits.

17.- Brain Development: Neuroscience shows that early childhood environments shape brain structures and future behaviors, highlighting the need for nurturing and supportive early experiences.

18.- Scapegoating: Domination cultures perpetuate cycles of scapegoating and violence; breaking these cycles requires addressing underlying childhood experiences and societal narratives.

19.- Cultural Transformation: Cultural transformation towards partnership involves changing narratives and values, promoting cooperation, and valuing care work equally with other forms of work.

20.- Economic Value of Care: Recognizing and quantifying the economic value of care work can lead to policies that better support families and caregivers, improving overall societal health.

21.- Gender and Equity: Societies with higher gender equity and support for care work have better overall quality of life, economic success, and social stability.

22.- Partnership Economics: Partnership economics recognizes the interconnectedness of caring for people and nature, aiming for policies that promote long-term sustainability and well-being.

23.- Policy Changes: Implementing caring policies, such as universal healthcare and paid parental leave, leads to healthier, happier societies and should be prioritized globally.

24.- Educational Impact: Education and family support investments are crucial for reducing child poverty and improving societal outcomes, yet are often underfunded in domination-oriented systems.

25.- Narratives and Language: Language shapes social categories and thinking; adopting new terms like "partnerism" can help shift societal norms towards more equitable and caring frameworks.

26.- Regressive Systems: Dominator systems, whether secular or religious, prioritize top-down control, resulting in cycles of violence and repression that hinder societal progress.

27.- Sustainable Practices: Sustainable and equitable practices require a foundational shift in values and systems, moving towards partnership models that prioritize care and cooperation.

28.- Inherent Violence: Challenging the narrative of inherent human violence and dominance is key to fostering a culture of peace and partnership, supported by historical and scientific evidence.

29.- Technological Use: The use of AI and other technologies should be guided by partnership values, ensuring they serve the common good rather than perpetuating domination and inequality.

30.- Global Movement: Eisler invites participation in the global partnerism movement, emphasizing the role of cultural transformation and policy change in building a sustainable and equitable future.
