Systemic Analysis is a method we will use to look deeply at our world. It gives us the tools to see why the world is the way it is. This will require us to first pause and take stock of what is around us. When we do, we cannot help but see crises. We cannot help but feel them. Systemic Analysis won’t let us accept our predicament as natural. It won’t let us shrug it away by saying, “It is what it is.” This method, instead, invites us to ask why. To answer that, we will look at what led us here. This is why the syllabus has so much history. History shows us the wider stage, and actions, that led to the drama of our present moment. We see how the stage was arranged, who was elevated to the roles of heroes, who was cast as villains. We see what ideologies went into the stage design, who got rich off tragic shows. We see actors who had enough of their roles, who wrote new ones or who conspired to rearrange the stage or tear it down. We see spells cast on spectators that get them to forget the whole thing is a play set in motion by men. We see how the acts repeat themselves until, strangely enough, they stall in what seems our tragic final act. History, above all, teaches us that we play a role on this stage. It shows us that we can consciously change that role and, by doing so, alter the drama. Over ten weeks you will gain tools for understanding what transpired on this stage of history. The website will be your toolbox. I will give lectures to demonstrate how to apply these tools to history and the world around us. But our most important source of knowledge will be each other. Through our conversations, we will help each other see parts of the stage we didn’t know existed. We’ll help each other see that, behind our different masks, we have much in common.
