The Great Reset is the name given to the 50th meeting of the World Economic Forum, held in June 2020.

Peter Koenig termed it in October 2020 {{#subobject: |Has superobject=The Great Reset |Has objectClass=Quotation |Has author=Peter Koenig|+sep=, |Has text=“the antidote to 'democracy'.

Build Back Better is a slogan associated with the policy.

Official narrative

Wikipedia insists that only far right conspiracy theorists oppose the Great Reset.

Origins

The LaRouche organization argues that the Project 1980s is the origin of the The Great Rest, which was developed at a time when US policy had strong interest to curb third world population. {{#subobject: |Has superobject=The Great Reset |Has objectClass=Quotation |Has author=Paul Volcker|+sep=, |Has text=“A controlled disintegration of the world economy is a legitimate object for the 1980s.” |Is about=The Great Reset,Project 1980s, COVID-19/Purposes|+sep=, |Has wikipediaPage= |Has location=|+sep=, |Has publicationDate=November 1978 |Sourced from= |Has sourceDetails= |Has sourceTitle= |Has sourceName= |Has sourceURL=https://sarahwestall.com/the-trilateral-commissions-project-1980s-origin-of-the-great-reset/

“A controlled disintegration of the world economy is a legitimate object for the 1980s.”
Paul Volcker (November 1978) 

Own words

The project aims to connect "key global governmental and business leaders" in "a historical moment to shape the system for the post-corona era". It envisages a "stakeholder capitalism" solution, where the big corporations become "trustees of society".

Noticeably left out of all these plans is any democratic participation, where people genuinely can decide over their own futures on a local level. The democratic process in the Great Reset is reduced to engagement with global governmental leaders and "stakeholders", i.e. self-appointed community leaders from NGOs, more often than not with positions dovetailing with the big corporations.

The forum launch also strongly hints at a reduction in material living standards for average citizens (but maybe not so much the owners of corporations or Prince Charles), especially in developed countries; "a change of lifestyles" to a green economy including pushing through a "rapid growth in digital" - as opposed to physical goods and services, like travel. The launch mentions "employment opportunities" and "opportunities for all" to "close the gaps in equality", but does not mention living standards.

Prince Charles in a speech during the event and on Twitter commented the following: {{#subobject: |Has superobject=The Great Reset |Has objectClass=Quotation |Has author=Charles Mountbatten-Windsor|+sep=, |Has text=“As we move from rescue to recovery, therefore, we have a unique, but rapidly shrinking, window of opportunity to learn lessons and reset ourselves on a more sustainable path.

“#TheGreatReset initiative is designed to ensure businesses and communities ‘build back better’ by putting sustainable business practices at the heart of their operations as they begin to recover from the coronavirus pandemic.”
Charles Mountbatten-Windsor (Jun 3, 2020) 

The Great Reset concept is heavily promoted by WEF Executive Chairman Klaus Schwab, who envisages a "comprehensive approach" to shape the future, integrating "all organizations and people with innovative ideas". Who these people and organizations are and what sort of ideas will be prominent, can be discerned from the speakers at the launch of the initiative: Kristalina Georgieva from the IMF, Brad Smith from Microsoft, Bernard Looney from British Petroleum and Prince Charles of Britain. And the strategic partners which will help formulate the action plan, consist of a hundred of the most ruthless companies in the world.

Klaus Schwab, along with his co author Thierry Malleret, published a book entitled "COVID-19: The Great Reset" in July 2020. "It's not enough to change a few policies or address short-term issues, what we need is a change of mindset, of lifestyles, of business models," said Schwab.

Key concepts

File:A brave new world.jpg

"Stakeholder Capitalism"

In a 2019 op-ed, Schwab opined that the “shareholder capitalism,” embraced by most Western corporations, which holds that a corporation’s primary goal should be to maximize its profits, and the second model, of “state capitalism,” is no longer sufficient. He wrote that "Business leaders now have an incredible opportunity" which "positions private corporations as trustees of society". The US Business Roundtable, America’s most influential business lobby group,Template:Cn announced in 2019 that it would formally embrace this "stakeholder capitalism".

"Fourth Industrial Revolution"

Connected to the Great Reset is "The Fourth Industrial Revolution", a phrase introduced by Klaus Schwab, in a 2015 article published by Foreign Affairs.

"Build Back Better"

This slogan has been used by many politicians across the world. For instance, Joe Biden's campaign during the 2020 US presidential election was centred on "Build Back Better". As President, Joe Biden proposed a "Build Back Better" framework which:

• Stops large, profitable corporations from paying zero in tax and tax corporations that buyback stock rather than invest in the company.
• Stops rewarding corporations for shipping jobs and profits overseas.
• Asks the highest income Americans to pay their fair share.
• Invests in enforcing our existing tax laws, so the wealthy pay what they owe.

In January 2022, President Biden announced that he needs to break up his signature $1.7 trillion "Build Back Better" legislation:

"I think we can break the package up, get as much as we can now, and come back and fight for the rest later."

Biden said he would likely have to remove provisions for free community college and a child tax credit to get the initial bill passed.

However, it is less clear what the slogan means in the UK:

At the 2021 Conservative Party conference, Prime Minister Boris Johnson championed the event's "Build Back Better" slogan, saying that the UK's recovery from the COVID crisis will not see a return to the "status quo ante".

The Prime Minister posted three videos on his Twitter account with the hashtag #BuildBackBetter.

One eight-second video shows Johnson saying "mmmm" as he eats fish and chips. He then says "build back batter" and the video ends.

Another video shows the PM spreading butter on toast and then he looks to the camera and says "build back butter".

A third video shows Johnson sipping from a pint of beer and proclaiming “build back bitter".

The Prime Minister has said "'Build Back Better' means we want things to change and improve as we recover" but, just like these videos, it's not clear exactly what he means by that.

Practical Implications

The whole program ties in with how Greta Thunberg, as a representative of "civil society", was given lots of attention at the 2019 and 2020 WEF summits, at which she stated that "our house is on fire", calling for "urgent action, stressing the need for 'real zero' emissions."

Several "stakeholders" have pronounced to the WEF how they envisaged a Great Reset:

• Microsoft's Brad Smith stated "As people return to work, we can continue to expect digital technology and data fundamentally to be the infrastructure for this decade and for the Great Reset." He further stated that (an unspecified) 'we' need to sustain people's ('their') trust. "This means protecting their privacy, their security, and ensuring that new technologies, especially artificial intelligence are deployed responsibly around the world."

• Kristallina Georgieva from the IMF stated that "The digital economy is the big winner of this crisis," and suggested "public and private investments for low-carbon industries, bizarrely stating - this from the institution that has done most to deepen world inequality -that she wants a "fairer"society.

• UN Secretary-General António Guterres stated "We must build equal, inclusive, sustainable societies, that are more resilient in the face of pandemics and climate change".

• Ajay Singh from MasterCard wanted to "bring the private sector to the party", but where one needed enormous trust between the private and public sector for this to actually work".

• Saadia Zahidi, Head of the New Economy and Society at the World Economic Forum opined “Businesses have an opportunity to affect change in not just their own workforces, the communities that they represent, but through their advertising, through their products, they have the power to change society”. He also envisages "a completely different approach to the content and delivery of education," an "education 4.0"

• Geraldine Matchett, CFO at Royal DSM, sees the crisis as a great equalizer between the sexes in terms of constraints. She wants to reinvent the workplace, "where the 9-5 or 9-10" [sic] depending on the kind of job, "is gone".

An article in The Hill from June 2020 mentions:

Of course, these government officials, activists and influencers can’t impose a systemic change of this size on their own. Which is why they have already started to activate vast networks of left-wing activists from around the world, who will throughout 2021 demand changes in line with the Great Reset.

According to the World Economic Forum, its 2021 Davos summit will include thousands of members of the Global Shapers Community, youth activists located in 400 cities across the planet.

COVID-19

COVID-19 might have been designed to furnish a pretext for carrying out the Great Reset. The lockdowns caused innumerable small and medium business shutdowns while further consolidating ownership in a few hands.

Canada

Ezra Levant and politicians Pierre Poilievre and Maxime Bernier called Justin Trudeau as the "world's most prominent defender" of this Great Reset.

Brazil

Brazilian Foreign Minister Ernesto Araújo criticised the Great Reset at Davos. On Independence Day, 9 September 2021, hundreds of thousands of Brazilians marched in opposition to the Great Reset.

End goal and monetary reform

An alternative rendering of Klaus Schwab's Agenda 2030/Great Reset slogan

On 4 February 2022, Neil Clark tweeted:

Yup. We’re in the next phase of the WEF’s ‘Great Reset’. Moving away from the ‘Covid phase’ to the Economic Collapse/Rationing/Net Zero stage. End goal:

‘In the future you will own nothing and you will be happy’.

"Owning nothing" does of course not translate to communism; the idea is that people are required to rent, lease or pay other forms of interest on everything, from cars to house hold utilities from a superclass who owns everything.

Martin Armstrong suggests (see his quote below) that "The Great Reset" is just another word for monetary reform. The IMF agrees: We must seize this new Bretton Woods moment. - (Kristalina Georgieva, IMF Managing Director Washington, DC, October 15, 2020)

Monetary reforms are a systemic (mathematical) necessity in a our current monetary system due to the exponential growth of debts and money supply over time. Armstrong and others (Bernd Senf) agree that approximately every 70 years a major monetary reform must happen. The history of financial "resets" shows an astounding high count of incidences where old money is declared invalid and a new type of money decreed.Template:Cn

In this view, Klaus Schwab is not a visionary; his "job" is simply to announce the inevitable with obfuscation decorating the fact that exponential growth is not sustainable in the long run. The SDS may have learned about these money mechanics by observing the buildup phase to the great depression in 1929 and hundreds of collapses of currencies over the past centuries.

Lockdowns, sanctions and most importantly the "green agenda" (CO²-punishments) all serve to drive down economic activity, which might be a precondition for a soft landing as opposed to a crash scenario like in 1929. Interestingly, sanctions (leading to very high oil prices), lockdowns and CO₂-taxes seem to continue, even after the "cause" they were purportedly introduced for ceases to exist. Putin, as "WEF global leader", may therefore "support" the drive towards a "reset" with his Invasion of Ukraine.
