Would 100 Entrepreneurial Networks exist if Norman had not published the Entrepreneurial Revolution Challenge in The Economist in 1976? (and colaborated with many confederate translaors including a young Romano Prodi in Italy)

Who knows but what is clear is two main things
Nobody in the second half of the 20th C was clearer than Noramn on how macroeconomists were becoming the main enemy of the future of youth and of the sustainability of communities. Norman diarised this with both good humor and increasing urgency in over 2000 leaders that he contributed to The Economist as it went from being 3rd ranked UK weekly newpaper to the world's favourite viewspaper. You can read most of his annual surveys at http://normanmacrae.ning.com/forum/topics/norman-macrae-books-surveys
Norman died in 2010 but not before being clear that Dr Yunus loved economics of youth with much more practical strengths than Norman had been able to type. Accidentally I (chris macrae) mapped one of norman's biggest stories - how network entrepreneurs emerged. My first job after an MA in Statistics at Cambridge in 1973 was at the UK National Development Project for Computer Asssited Learning where Norman tried out early networks we linked in with 500 students at a time. So while I dont claim to have the economics or geopolitical roots of my father, I did joyfully share in his greatest explorations- and in his belief that the 2010s can yet be youth's most exciting decade provide we can stop investing in macroeconomics and its zero-sum games, and use new business models that value multiply way above zero-sum while focusing on achieving the most heroic goals youth vote for spending the decade on.
FURTHER DETAILS AND LINKS FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO DESIGN FUTURES SUSTAINABLY AND AROUND OUR CHILDRENS POSSIBILITIES
Beliefs of Entrepreneurial Revolutionaries as codified in Norman Macrae’s 1976 Survey in The Economist
Beliefs are grouped into 2 categories: general economics, specific crises that 3rd quarter of 20th Century spun
General Economics beliefs of ER 1 There are 2 opposite types of economics- those designed to develop future productivities of peoples and places, and those that disinvest in our children’s children – Source Reference Keynes General System Theory 2 By definition entrepreneurs are concerned with economics and innovations that advance the productive lot of our children;s children – Source Reference Coining of the word entrepreneur by French goals of liberte, egalite, fraternite : human right access to assets of productivity around 1800 3 Joy of Entrepreneurial spirit flourishes when taught and mediated as non-political and cross-cultural. Essentially, investing in children’s children has been the value that has so far made the human race nature’s smartest evolutionary species – Source front cover of The Economist Xmas Issue 1976: Left is Right is Centre.
Crisis Opportunities Arising from Economics 3rd Quarter of 20th Century A During this quarter century the west's leading nations became accidentally dominated by economists focused on disinvesting in youth’s futures -eg look at how both EU and USA spun far away from the charters of happiness and freedom they were born round B Every major type of organisational system now (1976) has embedded into it threats to the future sustainability of communities/humanity as well as positive possibilities C The exciting challenge of the 4th quarter of the 20th C will be a New Capitalism – redesigning partnerships between organisational typologies to value multiply their entrepreneurial positives – Reference: New Capitalism was slogan subtitle of The Economist survey D Its urgent that we change economics ahead of the greatest change generation – the coming internet generation. Hayek's fatal conceit of macroeconomists is to make noise about loving innovation but not to innovate their own logics to value each generation's unique opportunity. Overall economists since 1976 has failed to accpet hippocratic responsibility to redesign sustainability of its reasoning. It is compounding conflicts exactly where youth need to celebrate heroes of borderless death of distance, and financially it is in denial of how all its assumptions are chnaged by bankabillion's 10 times lower cost of mobile transactions
Many subspecies of entrepreneurial revolution network have emerged around these principles. We are always interested in registering specific goal-oriented subnetworks but here are nine worth young entrepreneurial people –and those wishing to invest in youth’s heroic goals - having a first look at. The three in the right hand columns involve selective changes to economic design that Norman inputted into until 2010 |
