The Crisis of Civilization is the new film by Dean Puckett (The Elephant In The Room), commissioned by the Institute for Policy Research and Development (http://iprd.org.uk/) and based on interviews with international security analyst Dr. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed regarding the research contained in his new book A User's Guide to The Crisis of Civilization.
The film investigates how the current global crises of ecological disaster, financial meltdown, dwindling oil reserves, terrorism and food shortages are converging symptoms of a single, failed global system.

Weaving together archival film footage, interviews with Nafeez Ahmed and original animations by artist Lucca Benny, The Crisis of Civilization takes you on a surreal journey through an alarming tapestry of global systemic failure. It offers a stunning wake-up call proving that another world' is not merely possible, but on its way and warns that our inability to recognise the interconnections between different crises is preventing us, as a civilization, from saving ourselves.

We consider this film a creative piece of digital activism, designed to inform and entertain. As such, the success of this film will depend not just on our efforts to distribute it, but on working together with communities everywhere to use it to educate as many people as possible about the crises we are facing, and what we can do to confront them.
We are currently in discussion with distributors, and developing the most innovative and effective way that we can release the film. Whatever happens, the eventual home of this film will be online for free. So that you can watch it, download it, copy it and spread this information as far and wide as possible.
Dr Ahmed is one of the world's foremost authorities in terrorism and conflict analysis. He has written and reported for a vast array of independent and mainstream news outlets, scientific journals and academic publications.

His writings have received critical acclaim from many leading journalists and academics, including Gore Vidal, John Pilger, Howard Zinn, Vandana Shiva, Andre Gunder Frank, Johan Galtung, Robert W. McChesney, Robert Jensen, Peter Dale Scott, Brian Appleyard, among others.
