Hope in Common

RoCr — 2009-01-29T08:44:17Z

We seem to have reached an impasse. Capitalism as we know it appears to be coming apart. But as financial institutions stagger and crumble, there is no obvious alternative. Organized resistance appears scattered and incoherent ; the global justice movement a shadow of its former self. There is good reason to believe that, in a generation or so, capitalism will no longer exist : for the simple reason that it's impossible to maintain an engine of perpetual growth forever on a finite planet.

On prend les mêmes et on recommence Zébulon 1er s'agite pour prendre la tête d'une réforme mondiale de la finance à base de nouveau « Bretton Woods » (1945, mise en place du règne du dollar avec le gold exchange standard, dollar monnaie internationale de règlement des échanges et seule convertible en or, FMI, Banque Mondiale, Banque des règlements internationaux).
