About Me
- Name: Steve Brant
- Location: New York, NY, United States
Steve Brant is an independent researcher, theorist, and speaker on how the sustainable international development movement can achieve the ultimate goal of a peaceful and prosperous world for us all. Since 1979, Steve has known that zero-sum, scarcity-based economic theory is obsolete and must be replaced by abundance-based principles for this goal to be achieved. Steve's focus is on educating ordinary individuals and bringing them into the sustainable development process, knowing that the world's political leaders will not implement "version 2.0" of our global sociopolitical economic system until the people demand it. Steve's civil engineering background enables him to understand the "built environment" side of human society, while his studies in the fields of organizational development, corporate social responsibility, and politics enable him to understand the developmental challenges the world faces. Steve's work is based on the landmark research of systems theorists R. Buckminster Fuller, W. Edwards Deming, and Russell L. Ackoff. Steve was one of the first bloggers for The Huffington Post when that site launched in May of 2005.
