NOTE:  BRIEF STATEMENT OF PUBLICATIONS PRINCIPLES

The World Future Fund serves as a source of documentary material, reading lists and internet links from different points of view that we believe have historical significance.  The publication of this material is in no way whatsoever an endorsement of these viewpoints by the World Future Fund, unless explicitly stated by us.  As our web site makes very clear, we are totally opposed to ideas such as racism, religious intolerance and communism. However, in order to combat such evils, it is necessary to understand them by means of the study of key documentary material.  For a more detailed statement of our publications standards click here.


 

By this time it was readily apparent that the Weimar political system in Germany had failed.

Parliamentary democracy was unable to create solutions to problems

As in so many situations in history, a dictatorship was created to clean up the mess.

83% of all members of parliament voted to elect Hitler dictator,
including all political parties except one.

Could this be a warning for our time?

The current political leadership in the west is failing in a far more dangerous manner than the Weimar Republic.

The current global environmental crisis threatens all life on the planet.

In the summer of 2012 the entire surface of Greenland melted,
but the political establishment did nothing.

The financial capital of the world was nearly destroyed in a hurricane
but the political class still did nothing serious about climate change.

Democracy is not ordained by divine right.

If people do not make this system work, it will be replaced.

More and more people see the governing political class in the west
as a criminal element.  (We don't agree with this view.)

We do not believe that the specific ideology of Hitler will return.

However, history teaches us that problems need to be solved.

The current ruling order in the west will be swept away if it continues to fail.

History remains the same.  Time remains the same.

The people of Rome hailed the end of the Republic
and greeted Augustus Caesar as a savior.  He created the legal revolution
that created the empire.

It can happen here and now.   It will happen if things don't change.

Dictatorship will probably come in the form of some effort
to "save" democracy.

Hitler was legally elected dictator.  Almost all political parties
supported the law below.

Who will be the coming Caesars?

This is what is at stake.  This is why our current political
system must start to reform itself soon.

Here is the legal document that elected Hitler dictator.
