Joseph created a political movement according to The Daily Telegraph, that dismisses historic religious concepts as misleading and embraces a version of sustainable ecological concepts and science administration of society.[3] The name of the group comes from the German word Zeitgeist, meaning "spirit of the age" or "spirit of the time".

History[edit] Views[edit] Currently[edit] The Zeitgeist Movement's ideas are presented through local and national chapters and online release of media.[2] Zeitgeist holds an annual event, Z-Day, in March.

Zeitgeist

For example, the Zeitgeist of modernism typified and influenced architecture, art, and fashion during much of the 20th century.[1] The German word Zeitgeist is often attributed to the philosopher Georg Hegel, but he never actually used the word. In his works such as Lectures on the Philosophy of History, he uses the phrase der Geist seiner Zeit (the spirit of his time)—for example, "no man can surpass his own time, for the spirit of his time is also his own spirit. "[2] Other philosophers who were associated with such ideas include Herder and Spencer and Voltaire.[1] The concept contrasts with the Great Man theory popularized by Thomas Carlyle, which sees history as the result of the actions of heroes and geniuses.
