Systemic change is change relating to practices or institutions established as normative or customary throughout a political, social, or economic system.
Some critics of effective altruism allege that its proponents have failed to engage with systemic change.[1] Whether they are right or not depends on what is meant by the term. Members of the community are working on political issues within areas such as macroeconomic policy, immigration reform and land use reform.[2] However, work on certain types of "radical" change, such as attempts to overthrow capitalism or abolish private property, are much less common.[3]
