Genesis of Greed: The Evolution of Power and Human Exploitation

In "Genesis of Greed: The Evolution of Power and Human Exploitation," Alander L Pulliam takes readers on a profound expedition through human history, uncovering the roots of societal control, greed, and systemic inequality. Beginning with symbolic reflections on Eden and humanity's primal commons, the book traces the development of hierarchies from ancient civilizations, empires, and city-states to colonial conquests and modern systems. It critically examines how concepts like ownership, property rights, and organized religion were historically crafted to justify inequality and consolidate power. The narrative exposes the deliberate engineering behind the commodification of essential resources—food, water, land, and labor—revealing that our current world is shaped by human decisions and social constructs rather than natural laws. With deep insights into the rise of law, trade, and finance, Pulliam challenges the myth of inevitable progress, urging collective awakening and action to reclaim sovereignty, abundance, and true freedom. This book is a compelling call to question the foundations of societal systems and envision a more equitable future rooted in shared prosperity and conscious choice.
