- Topic: East obituaries of Norman Macrae
- Norman Macrae, who was its deputy editor for many years. Norman Macrae was the first journalist to recognise the growing economic importance of Japan in the 1960s. His seminal essay "Consider Japan" (which can be read in the Norman Macrae Archive) was published in September 1962, is a fascinating and powerful analysis of the Japanese economy at that time, and was an important corrective to those who still thought justin terms of Japan as a poor, developing country producing cheap counterfeit goods. The "Economist" obituary gives many other examples of Macrae's prescience and far-sightedness. The sudden jolt of recognition that Japan was about to become - as it had in the late 19th Century after the Meiji Restoration - an industrial giant (two years after "Consider Japan" the world woke up to Japan's success with the Tokyo Olympics) led directly to the British Government's trade promotion activities that I listed in my last article on the blog, the setting up in the early 1970s of the Exports to Japan Unit in the then Department of Trade, and the emphasis in this Embassy's work on trade and investment links with Japan,that lasts to this day. Do read the "Economist"'s obituary of Norman Macrae - it is a tribute to a massively influential thinker, whose impact is still felt today in the work we do here in Tokyo.…

- To those like von neumann who value the higher purspose of maths as logical languages of open systems, the idea that every university should have a world class roster of professors that it charge students for was absurd as far back as the 1950s - read his biography.

The dna of the least innovative adminsitrations in the world are those that dictate that because a system cant prove to be broken yet (or isnt known by the majority of the populace to be trapping them) it shouldnt be questioned (as drucker said every year) for not what can we keep the same but what must we joyfully change ahead of time. Here the great mindset problem is legal professions who advise ceos at a sector level never to own up to their system no longer being the safest even if it was at the time the company became biggest in its market.

- Topic: dfid on changing development through jobs
- Secretary of State for International Development. Related Speech: Justine Greening - Development in transition Blog: Justine Greening - DFID, Business and the Post-2015 Agenda Link: Read the speech on DFID's website This morning, the London Stock Exchange hosted the Rt Hon Justine Greening MP, Secretary of State for International Development. The Secretary of State gave a speech focusing on how DFID's investments can drive growth in new and emerging markets, and how this work can support businesses operating in these markets and enhance trade. Below is a transcript of the speech. Listen to the audio by clicking the link below. Welcome, and thank you all for coming. And thank you Xavier and the London Stock Exchange for hosting us today. It’s fantastic to be here at the London Stock Exchange in the heart of the City to talk about economic development in developing countries and the role of businesses in that. I’ve said from the word go in this job that Britain’s investment in International Development isn’t just the right thing to do –but it’s the smart thing to do too. I've been clear that I want to see our investment in the right places, on the right things, spent in the right way. So, I've started driving better value for money within DFID, by strengthening Ministerial oversight of business cases and contracts, and improving our supplier procurement. But I also wanted to take a closer look not just at how we go about our development work, but what that work comprises. Today I want to talk about why I will be shifting DFID’s work to include a much stronger focus on economic development and the steps we are going to take to get that strategy in place. But I also want to more broadly address the argument from those people who fundamentally don’t buy into international development in principle. International Trade Works Having listened to many of the arguments, I’ve reached the conclusion that for some people, any spend on international development is the wrong priority. Obviously, our government is committed to reaching the 0.7% of GNI target. We will achieve that this year, as we host the G8. There are clearly some who think that focussing 99.3% of Britain’s Gross National Income on Britain isn’t a big enough proportion. I can understand those arguments. And in part, they come from a sense that the UK’s national interest matters, and I completely agree with that. I went into politics because I passionately care about this country's future too. But I'm arguing today that our investment in international development is in our national interest – in fact, I believe it's critical. We are market making – ultimately, if we approach international development effectively. Trade between nations creates growth, jobs and prosperity for both countries and people. It drives down prices and increases choice. Some estimate that the current proposed free trade deal between the US and EU might raise our combined GDP by nearly 150 billion euros. We're rapidly growing our exports to emerging economies like China and India, including with our Prime Minister led trade delegations, but if only the last government had been more effectively working with industry and nascent emerging markets a decade ago, how much more trade would we be being doing in those countries by now. Here in the UK we're setting about rebalancing our own economy. We know that an economy overly reliant on the South East, or on construction and financial services isn't resilient. It’s like a car with only part of the engine working just one piston firing. So, we're rebalancing our economy, but we need to see the same thing happening globally too. International Development is in our interests not just because it creates new markets, but because I believe it can deliver a more balanced, resilient global economy. Sustainable Business Model So, international trade works in creating prosperity, but what about individual countries? Again, domestically, Britain is grappling with a situation that, when you boil it down, saw us inherit a public service and welfare state that the public simply could not afford. It is driving some difficult structural decisions to rebalance from public to private sector to help build a sustainable business model for our country. And so far we’ve seen 1 million private sector jobs created. But just as we cannot continue here in Britain with an unsustainable business model, neither can the developing countries DFID works with. Over the last 10 years my department has done some very effective work, generally helping to build vital basic services – health, education, water and sanitation. That work has have helped to make a difference to millions of people’s lives. We're going to keep doing it. But I believe you can’t build a sustainable public sector without helping to build a private sector. Sustainable public services need a funding stream of tax receipts and that means a thriving private sector. A strategy to do one without the other risks a short term improvement for people in poverty without a long term plan to make sure those gains are locked in. Yes, we need to work to put in place core services – they are vital, but they must go hand in hand with the building of wealth and an economy to sustain them. So, I want to work tackle poverty and see an end to aid dependency through jobs. The facts are compelling – wherever long-term per capita growth has been higher than 3%, we have also seen significant falls in poverty. Look at China – in 1981, 84% of China’s population lived under $1.25 per day. By 2008, this proportion had fallen dramatically to 13%. This was principally driven by the tenfold increase in per capita GDP over the period. Look at Vietnam – a three fold increase in per capita GDP resulted in poverty levels falling from 64% in 1993 to 17% in 2008. DfID used to have major country programmes delivering aid in both countries. Now our relationship is significantly different – it’s no longer aid, it’s turning to trade. The shift has happened. As the Indian Finance Minister said of his own country, "Aid is the past Trade is the future." Economists may argue about many things, but not about this. Economic development is what leaders want too – it makes political sense. Here's what President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia said in October last year: "Aid is not an alternative to self-sufficiency." As she sees it, it's about "how best to create new, stable trading partners that can create opportunities and jobs in emerging and donor countries." Her words, and I think she’s right. But it's not just good for them, it’s good for us too – it makes business sense as well. As 28 top CEOs wrote in a joint letter to the Financial Times today, "This isn’t about corporate social responsibility; we know that developing countries will be major markets and important sources of supply in the future, in fact many already are. Developing countries become emerging economies and emerging economies become the engines of future global growth and prosperity." That's what they say. And investing to drive economic development as well as to put in place basic services, isn’t just good for politicians, or businesses.... If you ask people in developing countries what they want, they’ll give you one top priority – it’s a job. It doesn’t matter whether you ask men or women, they give the same answer. People, wherever they are, want the opportunity to be financially independent, and to have the dignity of being able to provide for themselves and their family. And it’s more than that even. It’s about the right and the need that people have to find out and reach their potential. I believe we have to directly respond to that jobs challenge. As I've said before, my department is called International Development, I'm going to take the Ronseal approach to our strategy because the evidence is clear. Economic growth is essential for sustained poverty reduction. So how can we do it, how do we drive economic development? I think it boils down to probably 3 different aspects. Firstly, reducing overall barriers to trade and investment – whether regulatory, infrastructure, legal or institutional. Secondly, unlocking the ability of entrepreneurs and business people in developing countries to themselves drive economic growth through their own businesses being more and more successful. Thirdly and critically, I believe it also means greater investment by business, and I want to see UK companies joining the development push. I believe British businesses – not just those led by the 28 top CEOs who signed their letter to the Financial Times today, not just those listed here on the London Stock Exchange, but more broadly across our country, have a key role to play. As the PM has said, we’re in a global race. But if you want to be ahead of the game, be at the front, you can’t simply follow the crowd, you've got to lead it. And I think it means being in emerging market countries – not just those of today, but those of tomorrow too. It's about spotting when those markets can move from the “too difficult and risky” category to the “emerging opportunity” category. And Africa has some of the most impressive growth stats in the global economy. Last year, 6 out of the 15 fastest growing economies were in Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa averaged 5.8% growth over the last decade and South Asia, 7.3%. So, I believe that many of the countries in which DFID works are in that "emerging opportunities" box, but many of you can see that because you’re there too. By 2020, Unilever expects developing markets to account for 70% of total sales – that’s huge. Through an innovative partnership with the NGO Care, Unilever is already using a rural sales force comprising 2,800 of the poorest women in Bangladesh who now sell the products of 7 major companies including Unilever, and 12,000 more women are expected to be reached by the end of 2014. Coca-Cola is extending its distribution network and transporting medical supplies in Cola Life packing on its trucks. I know that the London Stock Exchange is building financial services infrastructure through forming exchange partnerships, and giving companies in developing economies an international capital raising platform. M&S, who work hand in hand with Oxfam and other key NGOs on their Sustainable Retail Advisory Board. These companies know that consumers care about corporate values and behaviour more now than ever before, they vote with their money. Just look at the continuing success of Fairtrade – over £1.3 billion worth of Fairtrade goods were sold in the UK in 2011. It was just £50 million a decade earlier. Having spent nearly 15 years in industry before becoming an MP in 2005, I recognise that although there is are opportunities to be involved, for many companies, successfully crystallising them can be a really complex challenge. It's complex for my department too. As I was very clear on last month in my priority speech last month, I am not talking about tied aid. I do not believe that is the way to achieve good, sustainable development. It means what’s good for companies comes first, rather than what’s good for developing countries. It’s the wrong way to go about things. And of course, there may always be companies who don't care about behaving responsibly when they invest, but DFID works to try to tackle those risks with work on transparency and governance. But as I said recently, we can’t just see business as a risk to developing countries. We must also see it as an opportunity. Business interests and developing country interests can align far more often than not. As the last UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said: “It is the absence of broad-based business activity, not its presence, that condemns much of humanity to suffering”. DFID work with Business So, there’s a lot to do but there's a lot we're already doing. DFID's work on technology investments has already helped to unlock smart business investment in developing countries. Look at Vodafone and the hugely successful M-PESA mobile banking phone service. DFID match-funded Vodafone's initial investment and there are now 17m users in Kenya and a third of Kenyan GDP is expected to pass through the M-PESA system. A mobile bank account essentially for millions who otherwise wouldn't have one. One that they can do business and trade with. Value chains We've worked on developing innovative value chains which have the potential to transform markets and communities. Our Food Retail Industry Challenge Fund of £7.4m has helped companies like Taylor’s of Harrogate transform how Rwandan tea is produced and sold to them, and generated new products. We’re also building local capacity through supply chains. With DFID's support the Waitrose Foundation are working in South Africa, investing in improving the skills and job prospects of tens of thousands of young people in the communities that support Waitrose supply chains. It makes good sense to keep supply chains sustainable. Waitrose is actually the first partner in our new Trade and Global Value Chains Initiative that we've kicked off and I'm delighted that we've had expressions of interest from other major retailers like M&S and Sainsbury’s who are eager to get involved. In Bangladesh, we are working with Tesco to establish an Apparel Skills Foundation to equip the industry with the training, expertise and tools to improve productivity and working conditions. It is going to train staff in over 100 factories, reaching a quarter of a million garment workers. In South Sudan we have partnered with SAB Miller so that 1200 farmers can get involved in supplying SAB Miller’s brewery in Juba. On the health agenda we're working with a wide range of pharmaceutical companies such as GSK on the supply of vaccines to the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation, a public-private initiative to fund vaccines for children in the world's 70 poorest countries, and GAVI’s partnership with Vodafone is exploring how mobile phone technology can help increase vaccination coverage. On education, we are exploring with Pearson how we can work together to develop innovative, sustainable solutions for quality education for millions of children, with real accountability for parents. Lots of individual projects in different sectors, but I believe we've only just scratched the surface. I want to see far more (British) businesses joining the development push with DfID. We all have a huge opportunity to help build up responsible trade with the emerging economies of developing countries. We're not doing anyone a favour leaving the economic coast clear to those with lower standards than our own, and I believe British companies can have a real role in growing developing economies through trade. Today I can announce that DFID has already begun to develop the comprehensive and responsible strategy that we need for working with businesses interested in responsible investment in developing countries. We want to do more with the companies we're already working with, but I don't just want to reach out to the largest companies in our country. I want medium and smaller companies to get involved too. Take Reid Steel in Christchurch, Dorset – designer and manufacturer of two 120m bridges in Nepal which should be able to better withstand earthquakes and flash floods. One bridge was opened in January this year and the second is due to open in June. And we can do so much MORE. Britain is open for business and I want DFID to be open for business too. We are already working with the CBI. I want to get together with industry bodies across different sectors, NGOs and business schools. I want an ambitious approach that sees DFID as a hub for knowledge sharing and advice and providing in-country support, where projects have a clear development gain for the countries concerned. I want your help to do that. DfID will lead this work across government, linking up with BIS, UKTI and FCO to deliver it. As I said before, for the countries we all want to see develop, we do them no favours by leaving the economic coast clear to those with corporate governance standards that are lower than our own. We have those standards. Britain has those standards. And one thing I’ve learnt in this job is that those standards, our British approach matters. It is recognised and valued across the world. That's why so many international companies list right here in London. They know we are people who stick to our word. The London Stock Exchange motto is "Dictum meum pactum", "my word is my bond". Let us use that approach for good. And if your company simply wants to do something practical that isn't anything to do with your core business, but you just want to make a difference, I’d like to see how DFID can better provide a framework for industry to know how to go about it in the right, responsible and sustainable way. I hope I can get our world class NGOs to help on this too. Local Business Environment So there's lots of work to do with you, but alongside that, I want DFID to do more to help build up strong and investable business environments in the developing countries themselves. That means helping countries build their own tax base, squeezing out corruption and providing the technical advice that means when economic growth does happen, countries are well placed to then reap and reinvest the gains. Last week, with the PM, we hosted the Afghanistan Mining, Oil and Gas Investor Forum at No 10. It brought together the Afghan Mining Minister – a man who has, with DFID’s help and the excellent pro-bono advice of former head of KPMG Michael Wareing, delivered a Mining Law that will now pass through the Afghanistan Parliament. Afghanistan sits on an estimated $2-3 trillion of oil, gas and mineral deposits. And with the safeguards in place, consulting with communities, ensuring jobs stay local, and the chance for tax receipts from mining to in part to be reinvested in health and education, it’s ultimately going to be business investment that unlocks Afghanistan’s future. And DFID has also provided support to help the Afghan government to improve its tax base and tax collection. With technical advice, we have seen their tax base grown from $250m in 2004 to $2bn in 2012. We're going to do more of that. And today, I can announce that DFID will be setting up a Tax Capability Building Unit within HMRC to provide us with an in-house team of tax experts dedicated to working in developing countries with DFID teams. As we have seen in Afghanistan, the returns on this sort of investment can be enormous. Our first joint DFID/HMRC country projects will start this April and I expect that once we've built the unit up, by April 2017 we will have teams working in 6/7 more countries. It also means reducing regional trade barriers. African Union leaders have signed up to creating a free trade area by 2017. That's an ambitious plan that we want to see succeed. So dismantling trade barriers is vital. The Economist recently cited the example of a car from China, which would cost more to take it from Tanzania to neighbouring Uganda than it did to ship it from China in the first place. The DFID supported Africa Free Trade Initiative is dramatically speeding up border crossing between Zambia and Zimbabwe, and by 2015, DFID aims to help cut by half the average crossing time at ten major border crossings between countries in East and Southern Africa. DFID's project, Trade Mark East Africa, aims to increase trade from the East African Community overall – our work with the revenue authority in Burundi has directly led to revenue up around 40% year-on-year for 2012; and even in South Sudan, the new customs service it's helped establish has seen customs revenues increase significantly. Technical assistance matters and I can announce today a £51 million investment in DFID’s International Growth Centre to expand its work to Burma, Malawi, Liberia and Nigeria, providing expert, independent growth policy advice direct to governments in developing countries. DFID is also launching a new £5m commercial law and justice programme to support the improvement of the legal environment for business and investment in developing countries. It will also increase the transfer of world class commercial legal knowledge, skills and support, much of it based here in the UK to where it is needed. We're also working to strengthen property rights. You wouldn’t buy a house without checking the land registry, yet in most of the developing world, the people who occupy and farm land, don’t have any legal rights to it. This matters for economic independence, because in particular for the many women who have small farms, if you don't have land, you don't have collateral, and if you don't have collateral – you can't get a loan. And if you can't get a loan, you can't develop your business. We're already doing work in Rwanda on this, so far helping to register 5 million parcels of land onto a new land registry – half of those benefitting from that have been women. Investing in women is hugely powerful because we know that women will reinvest 90% of that income back into their families and communities, so there's a double bonus. And we know that it changes attitudes towards women in a beneficial way too. Some NGOs have raised the issue of Land as part of their campaign on food and hunger. And we will pursue this at the G8 alongside the transparency that we want to see, protecting legitimate investors and the rights of local communities, and also exposing those who acquire land unfairly. Innovative Financing Finally, expect to see my department looking at innovative financing approaches to help support this new style of development investment. CDC’s remit has changed to better focus on the countries and sectors where we know development investment will make the biggest difference to poverty alleviation. And I want to look at other innovative ways to do more direct investment, including more projects based on returnable capital, which sees an investment fund, investing in local companies, creating jobs, generating a return that can itself be reinvested. So the UK will also be taking a lead on developing the global market for social impact investment which is estimated now at over £1 billion. In December I launched a new £112m programme where, for the first time, DFID will support investments that are designed to benefit the poor whilst offering a financial return to investors. This is good for investors, who earn a financial return. It’s good for the poorest, who receive jobs and support. And good for DFID as it allows us to leverage in far more private sector finance, meaning each pound of our budget has even more impact. I’m also pleased to announce that on 6 June the UK will be hosting an event on impact investment as part of our Presidency of the G8. This event will help catalyse this growing global opportunity to enable the market to operate effectively on a global scale. Conclusion So there is much to do. I know that nothing changes overnight. But what I’ve set out today is intended to signal a real shift in my department’s work – driving economic growth alongside our core work on basic services, working hand in hand with business to do that. The countries where DFID works will be the growth markets of the next 20, 30 years. And I believe Britain can be a force for good in this world. But, I also believe British business can be. My objective for developing countries is an end to aid dependency through jobs. Every time Britain has been at its most successful, it’s been when we’ve been out in the world, trading, doing business. We've never stood on the sidelines. And we can't afford to start now. …

Due to colonial and other consequences BRAC @ Bangladesh is mother earth’s deepest (global-for-local) hub for innovating solutions to many of the most pressing challenges of the 17 sustainability goalsthat the United Nations has prioritized as collaboratively urgent by 2030.. If you are a parent we invite you to promote joyful awareness of this collective experience as a critical success factor for the half of the world aged under 30 if they are to be the sustainability goals generation.

- Comment on: Topic 'Future of China Dream, and reality for www youth'
- 49-china-becomes-again-worlds-largest-economy-it-wants-respect-it-enjoyed-centuries-past-it-does-not? MATTHEW BOULTON, James Watt’s partner in the development of the steam engine and one of the 18th century’s greatest industrialists, was in no doubt about the importance of Britain’s first embassy to the court of the Chinese emperor. “I conceive”, he wrote to James Cobb, secretary of the East India Company, “the present occasion to be the most favourable that ever occurred for the introduction of our manufactures into the most extensive market in the world.” In light of this great opportunity, he argued, George Macartney’s 1793 mission to Beijing should take a “very extensive selection of specimens of all the articles we make both for ornament and use.” By displaying such a selection to the emperor, court and people, Macartney’s embassy would learn what the Chinese wanted. Boulton’s Birmingham factories, along with those of his friends in other industries, would then set about producing those desiderata in unheard-of bulk, to everybody’s benefit. That is not how things turned out. The emperor accepted Macartney’s gifts, and quite liked some of them—a model of the Royal Sovereign, a first-rate man o’ war, seemed particularly to catch his fancy—but understood the whole transaction as one of tribute, not trade. The court saw a visit from the representatives of King George as something similar in kind to the opportunities the emperor’s Ministry of Rituals provided for envoys from Korea and Vietnam to express their respect and devotion to the Ruler of All Under Heaven. (Dealings with the less sophisticated foreigners from inner Asia were the responsibility of the Office of Barbarian Affairs.) "We have never valued ingenious articles, nor do we have the slightest need of your country’s manufactures" The emperor was thus having none of Macartney’s scandalous suggestion that the Son of Heaven and King George should be perceived as equals. He professed himself happy that Britain’s tribute, though admittedly commonplace, should have come from supplicants so far away. But he did not see it as the beginning of a new trading relationship: “We have never valued ingenious articles, nor do we have the slightest need of your country’s manufactures…Curios and the boasted ingenuity of their devices I prize not.” Macartney’s request that more ports in China be opened to trade (the East India Company was limited to Guangzhou, then known as Canton) and that a warehouse be set up in Beijing itself was flatly refused. China at that time did not reject the outside world, as Japan did. It was engaged with barbarians on all fronts. It just failed to see that they had very much to offer. In retrospect, a more active interest in extramural matters might have been advisable. China was unaware that an economic, technological and cultural revolution was taking place in Europe and being felt throughout the rest of the world. The subsequent rise of colonialist capitalism would prove the greatest challenge it would ever face. The Chinese empire Macartney visited had been (a few periods of collapse and invasion notwithstanding) the planet’s most populous political entity and richest economy for most of two millennia. In the following two centuries all of that would be reversed. China would be semi-colonised, humiliated, pauperised and torn by civil war and revolution. Now, though, the country has become what Macartney was looking for: a relatively open market that very much wants to trade. To appropriate Boulton, the past two decades have seen the most favourable conditions that have ever occurred for the introduction of China’s manufactures into the most extensive markets in the world. That has brought China remarkable prosperity. In terms of purchasing power it is poised to retake its place as the biggest economy in the world. Still home to hundreds of millions mired in poverty, it is also a 21st-century nation of Norman Foster airports and shining solar farms. It has rolled a rover across the face of the moon, and it hopes to send people to follow it. VIDEO An embassy to China And now it is a nation that wants some things very much. In general, it knows what these things are. At home its people want continued growth, its leaders the stability that growth can buy. On the international stage people and Communist Party want a new deference and the influence that befits their nation’s stature. Thus China wants the current dispensation to stay the same—it wants the conditions that have helped it grow to endure—but at the same time it wants it turned into something else. Finessing this need for things to change yet stay the same would be a tricky task in any circumstances. It is made harder by the fact that China’s Leninist leadership is already managing a huge contradiction between change and stasis at home as it tries to keep its grip on a society which has transformed itself socially almost as fast as it has grown economically. And it is made more dangerous by the fact that China is steeped in a belligerent form of nationalism and ruled over by men who respond to every perceived threat and slight with disproportionate self-assertion. The post-perestroika collapse of the Soviet Union taught China’s leaders not just the dangers of political reform but also a profound distrust of America: would it undermine them next? Xi Jinping, the president, has since been spooked by the chaos unleashed in the Arab spring. It seems he wants to try to cleanse the party from within so it can continue to rule while refusing any notions of political plurality or an independent judiciary. That consolidation is influencing China’s foreign policy. China is building airstrips on disputed islands in the South China Sea, moving oil rigs into disputed waters and redefining its airspace without any clear programme for turning such assertion into the acknowledged status it sees as its due. This troubles its neighbours, and it troubles America. Put together China’s desire to re-establish itself (without being fully clear about what that might entail) and America’s determination not to let that desire disrupt its interests and those of its allies (without being clear about how to respond) and you have the sort of ill-defined rivalry that can be very dangerous indeed. Shi Yinhong, of Renmin University in Beijing, one of China’s most eminent foreign-policy commentators, says that, five years ago, he was sure that China could rise peacefully, as it says it wants to. Now, he says, he is not so sure. …

- dominate the news, and our paper, this week. We take issue with those who hold that the West should accept Russia's behaviour as the inevitable consequence of its sway in the region. Ukraine has demonstrated its desire for stronger links with the EU, and the West has plenty of ways of putting economic pressure on Russia to stop bullying its neighbour John Micklethwait, Editor-in-Chief the trouble is each nation has different interests and is unlikely to lead intervention with russia where trade leverage could innovate most so london/uk and presumably switzerland does much of the banking for russian oligarchs germany does much of the non-energy trade with russia and ukraine various eu countries do energy trade with ussr help us improve this list -who's responsible who for continuing the growth of russia's power however much it destroys the freedoms of youth in its neighbouring nations…

- General Theory; last chapter of essays on persuasion -understand timing (1930s) was keynes at his peak and west's 20th century at its most conflicted (1930s with hitler and stalin terrifying humanity)- writings about this time also showed hayek at his most insightful in my opinion; immediate post-war disciples of Keynes appear to have been schumacher and schumpeter -who both saw the extremes of communism and capitalism as the same broken system ultimately ruled by and for a few insiders -read 1843 james wilson founder's purpose of The Economist - to mediate an end to hunger and an end to capital abuse of youth- undersrand how queen victoria assigned james the fatal project of starting to end empire more ... track james mindset to the origins of entrepreneurial economics: the word is French so the frnech revolution of egalite and liberte; the 1776 freeing of usa from trade ruled by UK; adam smith's notes on moral sentiments and how the internbational banking scam of early 1700s bankrupte scotalnd, caused the hostile takeover of the Uk in which scotland was treated like a colony fom which over half of the next 3 generations of scots had to emigrate to be free to developed their livelihoods around the world - the 4th Norman Macrae Remembrance party was hosted by the Principal of University of Glasgow to explore these principles and debate whether the Futurelearn MOOC platform wanted University of Glasgow to take the lead in co-editng this entrepreneurial branch of economics (sometimes scaled microeconomics top distinguish its bottom-up and open mapping view of mathematical models from macroeconomics top-down and closed plans) -mathematically recall how einstein shows that whenever man's theory breaks down it is time to model dynamic interactions at a more micro level more on keynes: (however the terminologies they used doesnt travel through time simply and NW hemisphere politicians and their hired academics in the tv age's half century since 1950 have often quoted it values exactly wrongly -thereby destroying public servant democracy ) more on james wilson: which his son-in-law and sceond editor achieved to her satisfaction - turning her role from top of slave-making "empire" into hoped-for epicentre of commonwealth; unfortunately britain's intent to be the best for humanity investor were ended as winning the first world war made the UK biggest financial loser- the baton for best for world investor appeared to be passed on to USA; in my interpretation of history this the USA did to end of second world war where it unfortunately becane neurotic about arms races but fortunately not until the Marshall Plan had refinaced Europe and brilliance of Emperor Hirohito opened up the door for Japan and then Asia to become explorers of best for youth futures (something the region had previously not participated openly in for half a ,millennium -partly due to very inward looking perspectives of china and japan but also these may have been reactions to the way the west's mercantile empire had divided up control of world trade )…

- Topic: egrameen.com The global economy is collapsing, worldwide youth will be biggest losers, unless rich politicians act and learn from internet by and for the poorest
- he Web reminds me of early days of the PC industry. No one really knows anything. All experts have been wrong. Steve Jobs, Wired, February 1996 The global economy is collapsing. Employment of worldwide youth - and parents' children everywhere for generations to come - will be the biggest losers unless the world's richest politicians are modest enough to action learn NOW from internet by and for the poorest. Let's take a first look at pro-youth internet economics from 1997 which is when mobile telecoms started scaling up in poorest villages of bangladesh though further parses of future's history could go back to start of the web in 1990 and the start of the spreadsheet as the killer app of networks forged by global finance for the world's biggest corporations during late 1980s. This is is when 5 global accountants raced to form a quasi monoply of ruling the world. They destroyed post-industrial economics need for multi-win modeling of goodwill (including transparency and governbing whether the world's laregst organsiations are designed around expoentials built to last or to bubble) because their monopoly depended on ruling the world's biggest eadrship decision with one perfect bottom line number that counted up ownership of things and destroyed valueing every aspect of human development that makes service and knowledge nwtork economies abundant in opposite ways to the scarcity economics of consuming up things Richworld Internet D 1997-2001 Bubbling dotcoms 2000 Publication of Unseen Weath - how global accounting audits are perfect only at compounding unseen risks To 2004 - bubbling global utilites eg enron worldcom and low-trust financial knowledge management pioneere by Big 5 andersen -part of a series of 100 multi-billion meltdowns and ponzi schemes To 2008 property and banking bubbles To Now currency and world trade debt bubbles Even worse note how much of the above -even if there had been some honest regulation does transitory stuff with no future value unlike real knowhow you would want your children skilled in or useful infrastructures of inter-generational wealth building Poorworld internet Mobiles in villages become like first telegrams to wildwest over a century ago. Economic breakthrough: most valuable info shared first like where to find a doctor, or a bes tmarket price for a villagers crops, or advance news of a cyclone/tsunami. On the ground grameephone becomes one of the world's top 20 mobile telecoms companies and the main comparative advantage of bangaldeshi youth in sustainably growing a 21st C nation. Back at MIT (the original partnering home of Grameen Tech Labs) philanthropists from teleom business use mobiles to linkin world's largest job creation network by empowering students to compete to design apps round life critical connectivity challenges grounded in bottom up social labs. By this time Grameen's architecure is a hub network of 100000 villages centres each represneting the communla productivity of 60 vilage mothers. As keynes revealed in Generral Theory- our human race needs to see that the world will be ruled by one of two opposite sorts of economists - those who desigtn the futures that peoples need most OR those who destroy futures poples need most. Eraly 20th Century economists and topdown decision-makers didn't enjoy enough historical experiences to realise nations' races for industrial resources would cause half a century of world wars in Europe. There is no excuse for non-entrepreneurial economists in any 21st C government worthy of the peoples' respect let alone safety. As milennium 3 enters its teenage years, we urgently need to viralise an economics iq test for 12 years olds up so that pro-youth economies the world over can see who are the goodwill multiplying economists and global vlage sustainability leaders. However in 2012 this one question makes for a whole truth opener to saving urgent investment in the productivity of the net generation out of every place and peoples of our planet From the beginning of millennium 1 which two of these 3 variables sustains growth of human productivity by orders of magnitude a) new forms of energy b) new technology c) world trade? The answer is a), b) - for more information go to The Economist archives and search "Gross World Product" - an idea that can grow far more value through generation than adding up GNPs. GWP economics offers multi-win games whereas world trade's economics metrics is at best a zero-sum game depending how speculative system designs of currencies become. That means any elderly politicians quarrelling over national debt as millennium 3 enters its teenage years instead of freeing their place to investing in youth's greatest productivity is just plain wrong. Such 100% non-economic games players terrify me as a mathematician more that any words of warning I can offer you from Einstein or Von Neumann who both wondered whether the human race would survive becoming more connected than separated. Similarly, dare I ask a thing that bothers me about wherever you think to be the smartest democracy in the world: Does it includes youth's votes in all the electioneering promises it is makes. If it doesn't then that is one heck of a system problem if our human race is ever to appreciate borderless pro-youth economics. …
