The Decline of Statesmanship and the Rise of Technocracy: A Warning from Political Philosopher Marjorie Jeffrey Habighorst
Michigan, US, 16th April 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, As public trust in institutions erodes and political discourse becomes increasingly transactional, political philosopher Marjorie Jeffrey Habighorst is sounding the alarm. She notes that the West is witnessing a quiet but dangerous shift from statesmanship to technocracy, which could fundamentally undermine the moral foundation of democratic life.
In recent lectures and essays, Habighorst has sharply criticized the technocratic impulse that dominates contemporary governance. “We are mistaking competence for wisdom and management for leadership,” she argues. “Policy is no longer grounded in philosophical principle or civic responsibility, but in efficiency metrics, algorithms, and short-term optimization.”
This shift, Habighorst explains, is not merely semantic. It reflects a profound philosophical transformation: once political leadership was understood as a moral art rooted in prudence, judgment, and civic virtue, today’s political actors are expected to be data-driven administrators, crisis managers, or celebrity communicators. The result is a hollowing-out of political meaning and a dangerous divorce between technical expertise and moral responsibility.
“The statesman once aspired to cultivate the common good through deliberation and persuasion,” Habighorst says. “Today’s leaders are expected to ‘deliver results’ in quarterly increments, speak in the language of economics, and defer ethical questions to legal departments or regulatory agencies. That is not leadership; it is abdication.”
Her critique is not anti-technology nor anti-expertise. Instead, Habighorst insists that technocratic governance, without grounding in philosophical reflection and historical understanding, leads to a subtle but corrosive form of authoritarianism. “The technocrat asks, ‘What works?’ The statesman must ask, ‘What is right?’ If we abandon the latter question, we are left with efficient but soulless governance.”
She traces this drift back to what she calls “the institutionalization of moral neutrality,” a development she believes began in earnest in the post-war period and has accelerated in the digital age. “In our zeal to avoid ideological conflict, we’ve trained leaders to avoid the deeper questions of justice, liberty, and human flourishing,” she explains. “But politics cannot be morally neutral. It must be morally serious.”
Habighorst sees evidence of this trend across the Western world, from bureaucratized pandemic responses that sideline political deliberation to the increasing reliance on unelected experts to make sweeping decisions. The consequences are visible in her view: rising civic disengagement, a sense of alienation among citizens, and the erosion of public trust.
“What we are witnessing is not just political fatigue. It’s a philosophical crisis,” she warns. “People do not want to be managed, they want to be led. They want to be part of something meaningful.”
To counter this trend, Habighorst advocates a return to the classical understanding of statesmanship, one rooted in virtue, courage, and the pursuit of justice. Drawing on figures like Lincoln, Churchill, and Cicero, she calls for a renewed emphasis on political education that forms skilled administrators and morally serious leaders.
“Leadership is not about having all the answers,” she says. “It’s about having the judgment to ask the right questions and the character to act on principle, even when it’s unpopular.”
Habighorst also urges universities to rethink their political science and public policy education approach. “We’ve trained a generation to navigate systems but not to understand why those systems exist in the first place,” she says. “We need to reintroduce moral philosophy, classical texts, and historical case studies, not as academic exercises, but as vital tools for shaping the political imagination.”
Her message has found an audience among students and civic leaders alike, particularly those disillusioned by the technocratic status quo. In public forums, she has championed the idea of “moral imagination” as an antidote to bureaucratic drift: the capacity to envision a just society and take responsibility for its realization.
Asked whether she sees hope, Habighorst is cautiously optimistic. “There’s a hunger for real leadership, for moral clarity,” she says. “The good news is that statesmanship is not dead. It’s just been sleeping. And we need to wake it up.”

A Year of Celebration and Progress: The Church of Scientology and Celebrity Centre of Greater Paris Marks its First Anniversary
Saint-Denis – A year after its grand opening, the Church of Scientology and Celebrity Centre of Greater Paris commemorated its first anniversary with a vibrant and inspiring weekend filled with festivities, artistic expression, and a reaffirmation of its humanitarian mission. The celebration gathered hundreds of guests from across France, including community leaders, artists, and longtime Scientologists, all united in recognition of a year of achievements and shared purpose.
Just one year ago, in April 2024, the Church officially inaugurated its brand new headquarters in Saint-Denis in commemoration of its presence in France since . The event marked a new chapter in the Church’s presence in the Greater Paris region, offering expanded services and outreach programs for members and the public alike.
The anniversary weekend began on Friday, April 4, with a powerful seminar dedicated to The Way to Happiness, a non-religious moral code authored by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. Eduardo Galan, a well-known Venezuelan artist and speaker, addressed the audience, highlighting the remarkable impact of the booklet in his homeland. “A total of 5 million copies of The Way to Happiness booklet have been distributed among the population, including the police and prisons,” Galan shared.
Saturday’s program included a special briefing, where church leaders retraced the development of Scientology’s administrative technology from 1950 to the present. This was followed by an energetic concert featuring Scientologist performers covering Anglo-Saxon and French hits from the 1980s and 1990s—an uplifting performance that had the entire audience clapping and singing along.
The heart of the celebration came during the official anniversary ceremony. Church leaders delivered a presentation recounting the many milestones from the first year—ranging from consistent participation in courses and seminars to extensive humanitarian outreach efforts led by volunteers. The ceremony also welcomed two surprise guests, allies of the Church, who spoke movingly about L. Ron Hubbard’s legacy. One noted, “I saw that Mr. Hubbard wasn’t looking for fame, or wealth, he was looking for something else for humanity: happiness.”
The joyous mood continued into the evening with a spectacular moment: the unveiling and sharing of a giant Eiffel Tower-shaped birthday cake, crafted by France’s 2024 top pastry chef. Guests toasted the occasion with champagne in the elegant atrium before gathering at Café Séquoia to enjoy a luxurious all-you-can-eat buffet, created by none other than the country’s top chef of the year.
Sunday began on a high note with a classical music concert by the internationally acclaimed pianist Cyprien Katsaris, whose emotive performance added a touch of sophistication to the spiritual service. The weekend concluded with another seminar by Eduardo Galan—this time focusing on art, a subject that L. Ron Hubbard held close to his heart. Galan shared a powerful quote from Hubbard:
“The artist has an immense role to play in improving today’s reality and creating tomorrow’s. He’s one step ahead of science when it comes to man’s needs and requirements… The elevation of a culture can be measured directly by the number of its members working in the field of aesthetics.”
The Church of Scientology and Celebrity Centre of Greater Paris was inaugurated by Scientology’s ecclesiastical leader, Mr. David Miscavige, in April 2024. Designed to reflect the ideals and mission of the Church, it provides state-of-the-art facilities for spiritual advancement while serving as a hub for community collaboration and humanitarian initiatives.
As it steps into its second year, the Church continues to stand as a beacon of optimism, creativity, and unity—dedicated to helping individuals achieve higher states of spiritual awareness and building a better world for all.
Scientology’s presence in France has grown steadily over the years, supported by a vibrant community committed to humanitarian values, education, and spiritual betterment. The Church of Scientology is now represented in over 160 countries, with numerous recognitions acknowledging its contributions to society—from literacy and drug prevention programs to human rights education. The Church’s international scope and commitment to intercultural dialogue have earned it consultative status with the United Nations through its Spanish Fundacion para la Mejora, and has also gained religious recognition in multiple nations such as Spain, USA, Portugal Sweden, Italy, Southafrica, Canada, Australia, the Netherlands, Mexico, Colombia, Panama and many others, solidifying its role as a global voice for freedom, ethics, and human dignity.

The Mowrator S1 4WD and 2WD models are specifically designed to provide greater precision, efficiency, and safety in maintaining large outdoor spaces.

TEVIWE: Drawing a New Global Blueprint for Healthy Aging through Technological Innovation
Massachusetts, US, 16th April 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, High-fat diets, chronic sleep deprivation, prolonged sedentary lifestyles, and high-stress work environments continuously strain human metabolism. These lifestyle habits not only accelerate internal organ aging but also visibly manifest as external signs of aging, affecting body shape and skin condition.
According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), the global average life expectancy in 2019 was 73.1 years, while the healthy life expectancy (HALE) was 63.5 years. This indicates that people may face nearly a decade of poor health in the later years of their lives. To realize a healthy and joyful “second half” of life, it is essential to combine internal nourishment and external care, revitalizing health at every stage of life.
Against this backdrop, TEVIWE, a brand originating from the United States and targeting the global market, collaborates with leading international research institutes to strengthen its expertise in molecular biology, medicine, gene repair, and cellular regeneration. Under the leadership of Dr. Angela Martinez, a globally recognized expert in anti-aging research, TEVIWE’s Hesperides Lab pioneers cutting-edge formulations that seamlessly integrate internal health with external beauty.
High-end complex formulations feature high technological barriers, extended research cycles, and increased value-added benefits. In contrast, typical anti-aging formulations often face limitations due to single-target mechanisms and widespread homogeneity, lacking comprehensive, targeted solutions. TEVIWE distinguishes itself with exceptional research capabilities and differentiated development strategies, overcoming the limitations of conventional formulations to successfully launch advanced health formulations such as LivRenue, PneumoRenue, and a targeted anti-aging skincare solution known as the “Little Purple Bottle.”
TEVIWE’s premium health formulation, LivRenue, focuses on liver purification, lipid management, and comprehensive protection. It selects natural active ingredients such as rice bran policosanol, FucoRuby fucoxanthin, tetrahydrocurcumin, dihydromyricetin, chlorella extract, and bergamot extract.
However, these natural substances typically have low absorption and conversion rates in the human body. To overcome this technological bottleneck, TEVIWE developed LivNew
20-fold supercritical extraction technology, remarkably enhancing absorption rates by 20 times compared to traditional methods, marking an industry breakthrough.
Another advanced formulation, PneumoRenue, employs an innovative eight-fold multi-functional formula that promotes mucus expulsion and deep cleansing for effective lung detoxification, promoting easier breathing and a refreshing sensation. The patented ingredient QUERCEFIT® quercetin achieves 20-fold purification efficacy, effectively eliminating accumulated harmful substances and thoroughly purifying lung environments. Combined with complementary effects from bromelain, orange peel extract, and echinacea extract, Lung Renew deeply soothes the lungs, reducing discomfort caused by pollution or allergies. Moreover, it strengthens pulmonary immunity, constructing an effective defense barrier against external harm. The patented quercetin ingredient ensures high absorption rates, rapidly penetrating and providing potent detoxification at the source, aiding the restoration of lung health.
TEVIWE’s anti-aging skincare innovation, the Little Purple Bottle, targets the deep metabolic mechanisms of skin melanin. Leveraging years of technical accumulation and proprietary LumiSheen brightening technology, it precisely addresses multiple pathways of melanin formation. The formulation inhibits melanin production at the source, significantly brightening skin tone, activating cellular antioxidation and enhancing dermal structures by stimulating collagen synthesis, thereby reshaping firmness and elasticity for a healthy, radiant glow.
In a 28-day double-blind clinical trial involving hundreds of volunteers, daily use of the LumiSheen active formula significantly reduced pigmentation and visibly improved skin brightness compared to the placebo group. The study employed high-performance chromatography to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze phenolic compounds in pomegranate peel extract and conducted antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibition assays, comprehensively validating the formulation’s melanin suppression mechanism. These scientific findings firmly support the “Little Purple Bottle’s” remarkable anti-aging and whitening efficacy.
Although TEVIWE offers a relatively limited product lineup, its stringent standards for technological development and clinical validation ensure each formulation is meticulously refined. Over decades, TEVIWE has established a robust technological barrier through its existing product offerings. Powered by strong technological innovations, LivRenue quickly attracted significant attention upon entering the domestic market.
Data from major e-commerce platforms around the world shows that LivRenue delivered outstanding results, generating multi-million-dollar sales and maintaining a near-100% positive review rate, rapidly becoming a focal point in the market.
TEVIWE’s marketing strategy utilized precise data analytics to engage over 10 million potential consumers in its first month, driving an impressive 74.4% conversion rate—35% higher than initial projections. Within three months, LivRenue secured a spot among the top five in comprehensive customer satisfaction rankings, with repeat order rates steadily climbing to 82%, establishing a strong foundation for future market expansion.
In the anti-aging field, precision medicine is gaining traction by leveraging deep analytics of individual genetics, medical history, and lifestyle data to shift from generalized treatments to targeted interventions.
With increasing life expectancy, public demand for comprehensive anti-aging solutions continues to grow. High-end scientific brands like TEVIWE are leading this movement, bringing cutting-edge technology and innovative concepts to redefine healthy longevity.
