The
Tripartite Model of Societal of
Societal Change was initialized by Dr. Patrick Hunout in the years
1995-1996. The International Scope
Review (TISR) was created in 1998 in
the objective to collect
contributions to the model from
international researchers. The model
was adopted by the whole TISR editorial team as a reference to build a global approach to the contemporary transformations.
The Review is applying this approach to the policies of the mainstream decisionmakers in our countries, both on economic and political levels. These policies are basically similar in most industrial countries either in America, Europe or Asia. The following diagram presents their main features and their effects.
Instead of carrying on with policies that hinder or delay the economic development and waste societal and environmental resources, we recommend policies building a new, alternative model. The following picture represents the main outlines of these new orientations, and the effects they would have if they would be systematically applied.
