– What happens now? – asked the young Winston Churchill then an older fellow from the Liberal organization jury.
– Dear Winston. – replied sir William Harcourt – The experience of a long life convinced me that nothing always happens... – Since then – certified after years Churchill – I guess nothing always stopped happening!
Two scenarios
Neoliberal globalists want to change the form of capitalism so that China as a mill of the planet and a origin of investment capital becomes unnecessary. Backroom Donald Trump He wants to compete with China and fight to replace them and stay the center of post-fordist capitalism. In fact, confrontation is inevitable in both strategies, although Chinese strategies traditionally boil down to avoiding direct clash. Both scenarios so besides leave any wickets, in the first option in the form of composing China in a fresh global order (even with the chances of any promotion of the elite, of course erstwhile the narrow categories of their own civilization are removed), in the second their submission to the erstwhile hegemony.
Lockdown Or war?
Contrary to appearances, these are not just geo-economic issues. The effects of the expected changes are and will be felt straight by workers and consumers, with only a tiny simplification of the alternative: eternal lockdown be a devastating war.
In the first version with time actually There'll be nothing, zero growth will halt all economical improvement and the livelihood of the masses of mankind will become a tiny promotion of capitalist pensions. However, it will not be a planet of happy utopias where robots work for people, AI takes care of the eternal weather, and humanity gains an additional dimension of the search for the interior Self. Rather, the likeness of the planet in which the Last judgement had already been held will be clearer, the saved and condemned will be separated, and the remainder simply abandoned in oblivion to vegetate endlessly.
Contrary to appearances, it is equally hard to imagine the effects of the global war, as real as possible, although conducted most likely besides in the digital dimension, due to the fact that although the conflict may start with the specified rivalry of respective telephone producers and the argument over the superiority of the American LPG over the Chinese electrical battery - the effect may be a shock that questions the very foundations of global e-capitalism.
Is reaction capitalism even possible?
In addition, is it possible to make any fresh Fordism? Yes, globalisation has surely been initiated by political methods, so it could besides be dismantled in the same way. But is that what's been pegged in D.C. for specified reactionism? Wasn't it just as symbolic that Donald Trump was inaugurated? Elona Muska? After all, the conquest of the Cosmos, like the exploration of the oceanic depths, were a subdued era in which expanding accumulation from non-systemic areas was understood geographically. Similarly, communication advancement was understood as the improvement and creation of fresh means of transport (not just communication). In time, however, it turned out that it was not essential to fly to the moon to gain fresh areas of extra value. 1 of them is, for example, a platform on which you most likely found, among others, and this article by scrolling and spending your free time. It's besides fresh media, games, the financialization of social reproduction, our regular life from home waste segregation, through automatic cash registers, online buying and online banking, to robotics and AI. Musk, Jeff Bezos, in their hands specified as Trump may wink to us that they want to / may return to the erstwhile way of capitalism, but in fact we are their Cosmos, in a vast part already gained. Then why go somewhere?
So, have the Scout decades of not doing anything truly passed, as suggested by Brexit, COVID and the war in Ukraine? Is it now essential to prepare for the return of the Christian era? Or possibly Harcourt, an old, bored policy practice, criticized for knowing it more than he is experiencing it – will yet be right again? After all, the planet strategy has changed to stay unchanged. Could it be any different now?
