Abstract
This article is an edited version of a keynote speech delivered on 9 August 2008, South Africa Women's Day, at the Transactional Analysis World Conference held in Johannesburg South Africa. The author combines the values enshrined in South Africa Women's Day with values of transactional analysts that are needed for the struggle against injustice and the restoration of the Earth's ecosystems. Models of ego states and Cultural Parent are used to underline an experience-based universal ethos for an agenda of transformation at the personal, social, and planetary levels in which a wholistic ethnicity challenges unhealthy globalization. Interpreting the cowpoke story with a hermeneutic of ecorecovery, the author emphasizes cultural permissions that will harmonize several dimensions of the Child ego state, namely, the epistemological, the ecological, the ethnic, the ethical, and the spiritual.
