Overview

What happens when the economy stops needing most people-not because they failed, but because machines outcompete them everywhere? We're entering the age of structural not-being-needed. It doesn't just threaten jobs. It threatens legitimacy, identity, and social cohesion. Civilizational Leap explains why the old promise-study hard, work hard, earn your place-can't survive AGI-scale automation, and why money alone can't fix what breaks next. This book offers a new map: clear definitions, checkable claims, and a governance design that remains stable under real human incentives-without demanding saintly altruism. If the 21st century's hardest problem is not production but legitimacy, this is your blueprint for the transition.
