saw as changes humanity will have to make in order to make society functional, "new values that will free them from the yoke of the present technoindustrial system", including: Rejection of all modern technology – "This is logically necessary, because modern technology is a whole in which all parts are interconnected; you can't get rid of the bad parts without also giving up those parts that seem good."
