All of these, and Long Self-Correction, have specific connotations that I expect the public won’t like.
Long Self-Correction: we must be corrected, i.e. we are bad. Jails are “correctional facilities.” We need giga universal-jail.
Long Reformation: invokes the Reformation. At least nobody has strong feelings about Protestantism vs Catholicism.
Great Reconstruction: we are currently deconstructed, perhaps having just undergone some particular tragedy
Long Becoming: Lovecraftian concern about what exactly I, you, we, are becoming
It’s easy to criticize, so more ideas:
The Great Debate
The New Long Horizon
Prolonged Revelation
Long Dawn of Humanity (of Civilization, of the Future)
Fable comes up with (curated selection):
The Long Cultivation
The Long Ascent
The Long Deliberation
I start to feel over-indexed on the “long” part here. CEV is a nice idea because it’s well-specified independent of how long it takes.
“Cultivation” does seem to capture something more positive than “correction.”
