>> What is PROUT?
PROUT, the Progressive Utilization Theory, is a social and economic theory.
The late Prabhat Rainjan Sarkar, a social and spiritual revolutionary,
developed this comprehensive theory in 1959 in India. It is based on
spiritual, social and economic values and is considered by many as a
credible replacement to Marxism and Capitalism. PROUT aims to solve social
and economic problems through maximum utilization, rational distribution of
all resources -- physical, mental and spiritual. The theory advocates
economic democracy based on cooperatives and local planning supported by a
democratic world government as the cure for today's economic and political
ills. In order to achieve complete global integration, PROUT aims to
establish self-reliant economic zones based on common cultural, economic
and other factors to develop indigenous strength of regions and their peoples.

liberation which starts from economics and opens to the totality of
personal and social human existence."
-- Leonardo Boff, Founder of Liberation Theology
"Sarkar's theory is far superior to Adam Smith's or that of Karl Marx."
-- Johan Galtung, Founder UN Institute of Peace Studies
