political initiative, Steiner ceased lecturing on the subject, except for a series of economics lectures given in 1922. The impulse continued to be active in other ways, however, in particular through economic initiatives intended to provide support for non-governmental cultural organizations. Banks, such as: the GLS Gemeinschaftsbank (Community Bank) in Bochum, Germany, Triodos Bank in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Belgium, RSF Social Finance in the United States, all were later founded to provide loans (and sometimes grants) to socially relevant and ethically responsible initiatives. Steiner himself saw the continuation of this impulse in the Waldorf schools, the first of which also opened in 1919. RSF Social Finance has also played a role in support of B Lab, the non-profit corporation that has developed third-party standards by which thousands of businesses have become socially responsible in a way that is independently verified. RSF Social Finance also played a major role in the creation of a steward-ownership structure for one of the largest independent organic produce distributors in the U.S. Three realms of society Steiner distinguished three realms of society: the economy; politics, law, and human rights; and cultural institutions, including science, education, arts, religion, and media. Steiner suggested the three would only become mutually corrective and function together in a healthy way when each was granted sufficient independence. Steiner argued that increased autonomy for the three spheres would not eliminate their mutual influence, but would cause that influence to be exerted in a more healthy and legitimate manner, because the increased separation would prevent any one of the three spheres from dominating the others, as they had frequently done in the past. Among the various kinds of macrosocial imbalance Steiner observed, there were three major types: Theocracy, in which the cultural sphere (in the form of a religious impulse) dominates the economic and political spheres. State Communism and state socialism, in which the state (political sphere) dominates the economic and cultural spheres. Traditional forms of capitalism, in which the economic sphere dominates the cultural and political spheres. Steiner related the French Revolution's slogan, Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, to the three social spheres as follows: Liberty in cultural life (education, science, art, religion, and the press), Equality of rights, democracy, in political life, and Cooperation in a decentralized, freely contractual, economic life outside the state and operating within the legal and regulatory boundaries, including labor laws, set by the democratic state.
