O knihe
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Spaceship Earth is a world view term usually expressing concern over the use of limited resources available on Earth and the behavior of everyone on it to act as a harmonious crew working toward the greater good. It may have been derived from a passage in Henry George's best known work, Progress and Poverty (1879). From book IV, chapter 2: It is a well-provisioned ship, this on which we sail through space. If the bread and beef above decks seem to grow scarce, we but open a hatch and there is a new supply, of which before we never dreamed. And very great command over the services of others comes to those who as the hatches are opened are permitted to say, 'This is mine!' In 1965 Adlai Stevenson made a speech to the UN in which he said 'We travel together, passengers on a little space ship, dependent on its vulnerable reserves of air and soil'. The following year, Spaceship Earth became the title of a book by a friend of Stevenson's, the internationally influential economist Barbara Ward.
