About the LYM

The LaRouche Youth Movement was started around the year 2000 when the economist and statesman Lyndon LaRouche was running a presidential campaign in the United States.  The participation of a certain group of young bright students in campaigning for the LaRouche's Candidacy led to the formation of the most creative political force in the world today.

The activities of the LYM in the United States created an echo worldwide in the springing up of several similar movements throughout the world and their adoption of the same curriculum and emphasis on universal principles acting as the only true and just authority in the Universe.

It is within this Dynamic of Change that the Committee for the Republic of Canada extended itself to support the development of the LaRouche Youth Movement in Canada.

The Movement studies Science, Art and Physical-Economics to better intervene politically in our Nation with the intention and assumption that we can change the current dynamic presently destroying civilization as we speak.  That is the job of every patriot, to take responsibility for all of mankind.  With this in mind, it becomes absolutely necessary to eliminate the biggest threat to the survival of our civilization, namely the British Monetary System of Finance based on the tyrannical control over money.  A creative system of National Credit rooted in the historical tradition that led to the adoption by the United States of America of it's unique Constitution is needed to free mankind from the principle of Empire.

Our Mission

The LYM in Canada has a mission which is subsumed by the necessity for all of mankind to free itself from the tyranny of Empires.  As this economic system is now dead, we have a unique opportunity to win people over to LaRouche's Solution.

Only LaRouche's solution aims high enough to give humanity a fighting chance at a decent future.  We can't be allowed to compromise when the opportunity to eliminate the British Empire is now, in a very real way, within reach as it has never been before.

You want to live in a dark age?  We don't think you do, but that's exactly what's in store for all of us, already, if we were to shy away from the necessary swiftness and boldness that is absolutely necessary today, now, to intervene with the castration of the fake debts out there with the "Glass Steagall" criteria which determines a legitimate debt from a  piece of worthless gambling paper.  If we can have the guts to do just that, then, a new start, a new credit system as defined by LaRouche in sundry locations, will enable the whole world to rebuild and ameliorate the physical conditions of life for everyone.

We are going to Mars!  That's the idea that can unite Mankind.  With this idea in mind ask yourself what is needed to have humans living there in the next 75 years?  That idea can and must serve to unite all of mankind to recognize our common aims now and into the future.

The Narrow Path

Overview

Originally formed in the context of the Year 2000 Presidential Election, the LaRouche Youth Movement has worked for nearly a decade on developing an understanding of the method of thinking employed by LaRouche in his economic forecasts and political activity. Returning to the primary sources of original geniuses, and in particular to the geometry and astronomy of ancient Greece, the LYM’s continued work prompted LaRouche to offer guidance: he offered the Narrow Path, a trunk-line of the most important discoveries in physical science, required to develop a competent method for approaching other scientific problems and economic research. This narrow path, leading from the ancient Greeks (the Pythagoreans and Plato), through Johannes Kepler, Pierre de Fermat, G. W. Leibniz, Karl Gauss, to Bernhard Riemann, was designed to provide an insight into human creativity per se, rather than the mathematical reformulations found in textbooks and on internet encyclopedias. In an effort to spread these ideas broadly both among the political associates of LaRouche and society generally, a variety of pedagogical devices were created, including web-guides, books, magazines, and video presentations and guides. We present here what we hope will be an intriguing and helpful view into the train of human thought. As you work through the material presented here, feel free to email the basement with any questions you may have. Enjoy!

Johannes Kepler

keplerKepler, the first modern physical scientist, created the science of astrophysics. He freed science from the geometric-mathematical approach inherited from Aristotle and Ptolemy, and demonstrated that by incorporating the ironies between the harmonies of vision and hearing, the solar system, as a system, could be understood as governed by a universal principle of gravitation. The LYM presentations on the two major works of Kepler, his Astronomia Nova and Harmonice Mundi, were plagiarized in an act of epistemological warfare. LPAC produced a video, the Harvard Yard, to relate their understanding of Kepler and the circumstances around the plagiarism.

Pierre de Fermat

 

fermat_1Fermat, the unique discoverer of the principle of least-time in his study of the propagation of light, dealt devastating (and quite funny) blows to the infectious agent known as Descartes. Although he did much work in the fields of what are now known as arithmetic (in the style of Gauss’s Disquisitiones Arithmeticae), probability (in collaboration with Blaise Pascal), and the development of the differential calculus, his work on light’s least-time propagation was most crucial in the development of the concept of a universal. The complete works and correspondance of Fermat on light have been translated as a book, and a website

containing more translations (but little commentary) has been created.

Gottfried Leibniz

 

leibniz2_1Leibniz, the inventor of the physical infinitesimal calculus, the developer of the science of dynamics, and the creator of the science of physical economy, played a key role in Lyndon LaRouche's early intellectual development. Although the LYM has not produced much specifically on Leibniz, the Sufficient Harmony report from the Gauss group re-approaches Kepler from the standpoint of Leibniz while looking forward to Gauss. LaRouche's recent paper My Early Encounter with Leibniz: On Monadology discussed the impact of Leibniz on his thinking.

Karl Gauss

 

gauss2Universally considered a genius and called the “Prince of Mathematics,” Gauss’s actual thinking process is remarkably obscured, both by academia and by Gauss’s own fear of the intellectual oppression of his day. Although his doctoral dissertation of 1799, written in a penetrating and polemical style, frankly expressed his search for true principles lying beyond mathematical formulations and empirical sense-perceptions, Gauss went underground as Napoléon took over Germany and the Congress of Vienna reaffirmed oligarchical rule in Europe. Following the work of the Kepler basement groups, a Gauss basement group was convened, to come to know Gauss’s mind, with the specific focus of discovering how Gauss determined the orbit of the asteroid Ceres. The website the team created has quite a bit of content: on the history of Gauss, his work on higher arithmetic, bi-quadratic residues, and his discovery of the orbit of Ceres. Continuing work by the Gauss team on Gauss’s application of the concept of the tensor is covered elsewhere, on the Tensor page.

Bernhard Riemann

riemann_1The life of the revolutionary genius Bernhard Riemann was short (only 40 years), but his discoveries were profound. Putting aside a religious career to study mathematics, Riemann’s habilitation dissertation, written in 1854 to become a professor, was later the inspiration for Lyndon LaRouche’s development of what he has termed the LaRouche-Riemann method of economic analysis. This work, continuing the tradition of Kepler, Fermat, and Leibniz (vocally), and Gauss (implicitly), shatters any faith in a naïve sense-perceptual view of the universe, sealing Euclid’s coffin for good. With Riemann, a truthful geometry cannot be found in the department of mathematics, but in the department of physics. This new approach to geometry was adopted by Einstein and supported by Vernadsky. Further development can be found on the Tensor page.
