Ep. 188 An exploration of associative cooperation in economic life with Marcus Geimer

Marcus R. Geimer is a german carpenter and pedagogue living in Brasil. His interest is in Human Integrity, which he is exploring in different projects and contexts, such as making natural toys for children, economic education for youth, collaboration trainings in organizations and integrity consulting with individuals.

Marcus approach is rooted in the Intuitive Pedagogy of Pär Ahlbom, and  greatly influenced by Orland Bishop, whom he was mentored by over a decade. Recently Marcus spoke at the Intergen Summit during Family Office Association meetings in North America, and became part of One Humanity Institute, a global organization fostering humanity at its best.

This conversation is an exploration of new economic practices, based on anthroposophical understanding of:   Which role Liberty, Fraternity and Equality - the principles of the French Revolution - can play for the regeneration of the social organism. The so called Social Three-Folding is a finding of Rudolf Steiner suggesting the progressive independence of society's economic, political and cultural institutions. It aims to foster: 

- human rights and equality in political life, 

- freedom in cultural life, and 

- associative cooperation in economic life.

In 2018 Marcus began designing and realizing economic practices, generating cases with game changing tendencies for our economic reality
