Abstract

Riane Eisler’s partnership model and David Loye’s theory of Darwinian moral sensitivity are effective interdisciplinary frameworks for highlighting the dynamic interplay between dominator and equalitarian constructs that shape the history of our time. In this period of limited individual freedom and impending predatory globalism, branded as philanthropic altruism and environmental sustainability, this article uses both theories to offer life-enhancing and caring scenarios to move beyond top-down elitism and to promote a culture of peace.
