{Reference Type}: Journal Article {Title}: Real systemic solutions to humanity's problems require a radical reshaping of the global political system. {Author}: Edelman S; {Journal}: Behav Brain Sci {Volume}: 46 {Issue}: 0 {Year}: 2023 08 30 {Factor}: 21.357 {DOI}: 10.1017/S0140525X23001061 {Abstract}: Society's problems cannot be alleviated via mere policy interventions, whether individual- or system-level, when the system is the problem. To bring about true and lasting change to the better, we must replace the present global political-economic system - oligarchic capitalism backed by the power of the state - with one that would let the people take charge of their lives.
