Episode 29
Friday, 18 July, 2025
In This Episode In this deep and exploratory episode of Redefining Tomorrow, James Arbib joins David Goldsmith for a journey into the roots of civilization, the illusions we’ve inherited, and how they shape the futures we’re building. As co-founder of RethinkX and the Stellar World Initiative, James walks us through thousands of years of societal evolution—from the Neolithic revolution to today’s techno-environmental narratives—and asks us to consider whether we truly understand the systems we’re trying to fix. They explore why scarcity thinking dominates global policy making, how civilizations have mirrored each other through to modern America, and why rethinking our assumptions—not just our tools—may be the only way forward. Episode Outlines Rediscovering civilization’s real turning points Why yesterday explains today—and tomorrow America as just another shade of Summer Scarcity, survival, and the growth imperative Degrowth and the psychological trap of guilt-based solutions How environmental zealotry became systemic and ineffective Matter, energy, and information vs. land, labor, and capital Competitive advantage and the DNA of societal design The illusion of progress and the limits of modern framing From history to now: rethinking civilization’s operating system Biography of the Guest James Arbib is a visionary thought leader, author, investor, and philanthropist dedicated to exploring how disruptive technologies can address humanity's greatest challenges.
