Majorityrights Central > Category: GlobalisationI came upon the work of Frederick Parker-Rhodes in my quest for the ideal computer language, which I have elsewhere on MR discussed in relation to Heidegger’s “as” structure and GW’s ontology project. Recent work in theoretical physics has provided empirical validation to his “wildly eccentric” views—which managed to provide a priori derivations of the dimensionless scaling constants of physics from his ontology detailed in his book “The Theory of Indistinguishables”. To be brief, there is his “combinatorial hierarchy” that derives from FRP’s attempt to find the underlying mathematical structure of what he called “wholesight”. Below the fold is an excerpt from “Wholesight: The Spirit Quest” by Frederick Parker-Rodes…
by Martin Hutchinson The extraordinary rise in commodity prices, at the beginning of a global cyclical upswing, is beginning to reorder the pecking order of the world economy. Together with the advances made by China and India in the last decade, it is producing an entirely new world order, which many will find uncomfortable. In it, commodities, derided for decades as unimportant, have become scarce resources, to be guarded and managed with the utmost care. Conversely human labor and skill, on the basis of which the glories of human civilization were built, is entering into a state of gigantic glut. The current commodities boom is qualitatively different from those of the past. In previous commodities booms, such as those of 1972-73 or 2006-08, the global economy was operating close to capacity, and indeed the boom was an important indicator that full capacity was about to be reached. The booms were accompanied by wage inflation and in both cases resulted in price inflation, although in 2007-08 the price inflation was aborted by the financial crash before it could really get hold.
by K R Bolton Multicultural politics, including that concerned with immigration, is a method of social engineering. Whoever raises a voice in public in opposition or even merely of caution is pilloried as a “racist” and a “reactionary”. Conversely, those who champion multiculturalism are upheld as the paragons of ‘progress’ and humanitarianism. Yet behind the moral façade multiculturalism is a cynical stratagem, an important part of the process of globalisation in the interests of a small, self-appointed plutocratic elite. This essay examines how multiculturalism is an aspect of globalisation.
It is ironic that an intellectual championed in particular by the anarchist-Left has given such a cogent definition of the motivating force behind multiculturalism. Among the numerous references to Chomsky made by the Left his diagnosis of capitalism as being “anti-racist” because it aims to create a society of humans as nothing more than “interchangeable cogs”, does not receive the same attention as his other views. As Chomsky states, individuals cannot function at an optimum level as producers and consumers if there are racial or what we might further categorise as cultural and national, divisions. Chomsky is outside the mainstream of Leftist ideology, which sees humanity and the individual in precisely the same terms as capitalism sees humanity as defined by Chomsky in the above passage. Both capitalism and Marxism are globalist, and both are reductionist in seeing economic factors as the primary determinants of human behaviour and history. Marx himself was not adverse to Free Trade capitalism. He supported Free Trade insofar as he saw it as a dialectical catalyst for the destruction of national boundaries, which would internationalise “the proletariat” and eventually lead to a global system. Global capitalists maintain the same outlook today. Marx’s analysis in regard to Free Trade was correct, although his alternative is nothing more than to change the ownership of production and distribution. Marx said of Free Trade:
Today’s global corporate executives and planners concur with Marx. Marx further identified “protectionism” as the conservative position, Free Trade as subversive and revolutionary. Those – mainly political scientists and journalists, especially in the English-speaking world – who insist on defining “conservatism” (sic) as Free Trade liberalism, should return to an actual source; in this instance Marx, to re-evaluate their definitions:
It seems impossibly fanciful, almost like a script for a Bond movie. A clutch of mega-corporations hatches a plan for the global control of an absolute fundamental for life itself: food. The plan calls not simply for the global domination of food supply, but for placing Nature beyond the law so farmers and growers must buy their seeds from the corporations. And because those seeds are genetically manipulated to produce barren plants, they must do it afresh every drilling season. Cue the suave, unkillable good guy who always steals the villain’s very delectable girlfriend? ‘Fraid not this time. It’s down to freedom-loving Americans to save the world from predatory capitalism, with maybe some help from Ron Paul. There’s about a week left in which to inform Congress about right and wrong as they pertain to this bill. From that last link (Campaign for Liberty):-
An MR reader sent me the following clip, which is actually of a guy reading an Op-ed News article titled “Monsanto’s Dream Bill”:-
The Telegraph’s Ambrose Evans-Pritchard published a pretty hard-hitting article today, filled with lurid references to nations in deep financial crisis. Those I have heard so much of since September 2008, I am rapidly developing an incapacity to be alarmed. No, the interesting thing about this article was the following stunning admission of where things will go:-
Forget monetary reform of fractional reserve banking (which allows banks to create a nation’s money-supply as debt out of thin air). You, Ron Paul and everyone who didn’t lose billions out of the crisis may think that restoring the right of democratic nations to coin their currency directly, as required in the US Constitution, is the answer. But we are, Evans-Pritchard says, going to get a global fiat currency. The EU agrees, and at the end of last month formally presented a case for a global currency system to the new American administration. Now, at a time like this there should always be a gentleman born to Jewish parents who can be found leading the intellectual charge. And, as it happens, there is. The economist Joseph Stiglitz, a former Senior Vice President and Chief Economist of the World Bank and author of Making Globalization Work, has been the point man for the global currency. Here he is being interviewed by some outfit named Share the World’s Resources:-
Of course, he means “This is a Stiglitz moment.” It is also a moment when the nation state, upon whose political existence the defence of human bio-diversity depends, takes another long step towards dissolution.
The blog has experienced a serious technical problem over the last few days, which prevented new postings. Thankfully, James resolved it, and I’ve been pitched back into the world of political news and thought. And what I have been trying to get a handle on has been that brief and very strange, conflicted marriage of radical leftist idealism, political establishments generally, American national interest and corporate greed which is, or was, the movement for globalisation. I was thrust into this line of country by a news snippet two days ago about the resignation of Brazil’s political heroine and Environment Minister, Marina Silva.
What really did for her was the strongly rising cost of commodities on world markets. Money, in other words ... and weak politicians. These include the one-time champion of workers rights and two-times elected president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. But this is the sad, too too predictable story of globalisation everywhere. Now, let’s rewind eighteen years and see how it came to this. It means going back to the aftermath of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Anyone past his twenties will likely remember watching the whole process of revolution in the east unfold. It was an extraordinary and breathless passage of time, the like of which we simply did not believe we would witness in our lifetimes. Those involved, of course, knew that communism as ideology was an empty shell. Homo sovieticus had nothing to field against the national soul of the western satellites. But what was not known was how weak the state structure itself was. But, also, what I never dreamt as I watched the images on the television screen was how little the hard-left in the West, which had supported the workers’ paradise throughout, was inclined to walk into history with Homo sovieticus. Instead, it stampeded into new political causes.
On Saturday the little big men of the World Economic Forum checked out of their Davos hotels and made the hop home in the company Gulfstream. Along with the customary hookers and political whores, the high-powered networking and, doubtless for some, the plain high, our heroes left behind all that damned public caring - at least, for another year. Actually, the caring thing was pretty well done this year. They concocted a public relations exercise involving a somewhat bland question:-
There was a lot of hot air vented about knowledge and poverty, climate change, and water. But the hot button issues among the real players were the decline of the dollar as the world currency and the threat of a US recession. These merely reflects the corporate-heavy interests of the Davos “community”. Of the issue of the rights and interests of real people and peoples there was, of course, no sign. Or almost no sign. This report appeared this morning in the lower middle-class rag, the Sunday Express:-
Now, I’ve been all over the WEF’s brave new website and I can’t find a trace of the former Arch-Songster’s study. Which is odd. The only half-useful mention of migration which crops up via a word search on the site concerns this curious working session:-
