In “From Stagnation to Acceleration: A Manifesto for Technological Advancement,” Cornel Jefferson presents a bold and unapologetic vision for humanity’s future. Drawing inspiration from humanity’s luminaries of innovation, Jefferson advocates for embracing Effective Accelerationism (e/acc) as the driving force to propel humanity forward. He argues that unrestricted technological progress—especially in artificial intelligence—is the key to solving global challenges and unlocking human potential.

Rejecting the constraints of degrowth philosophies that promote reduced economic activity and consumption, Jefferson makes a compelling case for why such approaches hinder progress and limit human flourishing. Instead, he champions a pro-human, pro-technology stance that sees innovation as the pathway to a prosperous and expansive future.

This manifesto serves as a rallying cry for innovators, entrepreneurs, policymakers, and all who believe in the transformative power of technology. “From Stagnation to Acceleration” is not just a book; it’s a blueprint for action, urging society to break free from complacency and accelerate towards a future where human potential knows no bounds.
