I think you will be and are starting to see smaller new societies.. you have to look at coops and not so much in spirituality but more within established religions.. mainly because the have an established moral foundation. Spirituality is more personality based. It is possible to guide a church group and it is where i see societies future headed. As people are going to need to work together to have a reasonably good life.

Haven't seen one yet. I enjoyed Justin's tales (hoping he wasn't a mad man's alter) about the think (or no thought) tank he tried to create centered around spirituality. Fell apart because of personality. It seems even families fall apart without a strong mandate to continue, whether through moral. ethical, traditional or led with honest love ties. Working in cooperation is not easy, the larger the group, the more it gets in the way. A group of people who can look and operate beyond all that is required but hard to come by.
