political economic theory hopism

The biggest challenge of all is solving our inefficient, inequal, unjust, undemocratic society that makes people slave and damages earth. Hopism iimproves things for people and the planet - probably!

Hopism is political theory written by an ordinary person with ordinary aspirations for life. Hopism recognises and accepts human nature’s weaknesses and strengths and tries to build a realistic framework to create a society of low tax, high social service and low waste.

This is Hopism-Beta-Edition, republished again after a four year break due to background issues. It is still edition 1 and could do with some editing, better english, slicker graphics, some videos and many more diagrams. That will get done sometime during rainy dark November 2014, together with a discussion forum, where this rough idea can be beaten into shape and better written by contributors.

The end result is more useful work done, a happier society and more free time to enjoy your life - whilst knowing that social obligations are met.

Hopism is short and sweet

Hopism is under development, there will be bits you like and bits you dont, maybe there could be different splinter variants. The theory itself is simple and should take less than an afternoon to understand. There are around twenty texts on the webring, each less than a thousand words.

Proportional responsibility

You are here! Opens large format version of the Hopism Egg in a new window You are here!

Every problem in the world has ownership. Proportional responsibility is developing the concept of problem ownership so that specific collective and individual responsibility is appointed for every problem.


Whenever a problem arises, before asking how can we solve that problem, we must adopt a different rationale where first the origin is analysed. Problem symptoms and conditions must be separated so that we cure the condition not develop symptom relieving systems that may actually feed the problematic condition.


By appointing responsibility individuals are persuaded, bullied or moved aside until action is taken to treat the problem condition. The focus will change from one of symptom relief to condition curing.

99% of all world problems are immediately solvable but only after we have identified cures to the condition and those responsible for addressing the cures.


We can also develop proportionality, where every world problem is connected to every person, but only proportionally. This stops us wondering about chaos and allows concentration on our own problems.


Once all problems are both localised and globalised they can be solved. Failing peoples and countries can be embarassed into action. For example the UK government is active in advising many countries worldwide on various issues yet its own infrastructure, justice, freedom and social development is woeful.

In one town Doncaster, during 2009 seven children died of neglect, beatings and starvation at the hands of their parents in the UK. People, towns, countries and regions who fail to take care of their children should not be advising anybody else of anything.


World scoring league tables of social performance can be created where people can feel shame or pride at the state of their country in various aspects, until every country starts to achieve basic levels of performance.


Country by country inspectors can be used to grade performance and shame populations into action.

When problems occur questions must be asked about responsibility. While people are understanding of natural disasters, we feel exasperation at the more frequent but equally tragic manmade disasters.


Proportional responsibility is also the counterweight of Folkcracy. If the problem was local, and the cause of the problem was a result of policy voted for locally, then no one can hide behind excuses. The problem must solved locally by local voting on local policy paid for by local taxation. This bypasses incompetent politicians and puts the responsibility onto people.


There will no longer be a remote ”them” to blame, ”they did it” will not exist because Folkcracy (direct democracy) means ”we did it” and there is no hiding from that. Conversely, with direct democracy, ”we did it, but now we have the chance to change that” also applies.  Folkcracy is real democratic empowerment.
