-- Ervin Laszlo had been studying "general system theory." After his
book, Introduction To
Systems Philosophy was published in 1972, he was invited by
Richard Falk of Princeton's Center of International Studies to lead a
seminar. How could Laszlo's general system theory be applied to studies
of the international system?
Subsequently Laszlo received a phone call from Aurelio Peccei,
founder of a think tank called the Club
Of Rome. Laszlo intersected with the Club Of Rome but soon
became dissatisfied with them.
Laszlo was also cultivated by the United Nations. The U.N. wanted to
launch a "global dialogue" between South America and North America.
Laszlo was recruited into the UN's Institute of Training and Research
(UNITAR). In the autobiographical section of his book, Science and the Akashic Field,
Laszlo writes, in part, as follows:
"...UN Secretary-General Kurt
Waldheim asked me to suggest other ways in which North-South
cooperation could be pursued. The proposal I made to him and to UNITAR
was based on systems theory: it was
to insert another 'systems level' between the level of individual
states and the level of the United Nations. This was the level of
regional social and economic groupings." [emphasis added]
Antonio Gramsci was a brilliant Marxist theoretician imprisoned by
Benito Mussolini's fascist government. In prison, Gramsci wrote in
notebooks his plan for the overthrow of Capitalism.
"In any totalitarian state, the
oppressed always outnumber the oppressors. While such regimes are built
upon the threat and practice of terror, it is impossible to create
institutions of state terror that can control all of the subjects, all
of the time. Thus would-be-tyrants who seek to dominate entire
populations must devise some means of inducing their victims to enslave
themselves." ("Gramsci: A Method to the Madness," by William
Norman Grigg. http://www.grecoreport.com/gramsci_a_method_to_the_madness.htm)
As a counter-strategy, Gramsci proposed a "March Through The
Institutions." Communists could gradually infiltrate the bureaucracies,
"universities, schools, the news media, entertainment, churches and
other religious bodies, tax-exempt foundations, and other key
institutions." (Grigg, op. cit.)
Much is made of the demise of the USSR. A notion is prevalent that
the Communist threat has disappeared. Communism didn't vanish; it just
changed tactics and is more powerful than ever.
"In his 1968 book The Strawberry Statement: Notes of a College
Revolutionary, New Left radical James Kunen describes how emissaries
from Rockefeller interests 'offered to finance our demonstrations in
Chicago.'" (Grigg, op. cit.) Monopoly Capitalist Rockefeller financing
the "radical left"? How extraordinary!
Betty Frieden, icon of so-called "Feminism," was "a professional
propagandist for the Soviet-controlled Communist Party. Prior to
becoming the anointed leader of the 'Women's Movement,' notes former
New Left activist David Horowitz, Friedan was 'a Stalinist [and] the
political intimate of America's Cold War fifth column. ...'" (Grigg,
op. cit.) Progressive Feminists the stooges of Stalin? Women's
Liberation a mask for enslavement? This cannot be!
Even the venerated Rosa Parks was not as she seemed, according to
some reports. Ph.D. Henry Makow, for example, claims that "spontaneous
activist" Parks was a longtime member of the NAACP when she
courageously refused to move to the back of the bus. And the NAACP,
suggests Makow, originated as part of the Communist octopus. ("'Red'
Rosa Parks," http://www.rense.com/general68/rosa.htm)
Business Week magazine, in
a recent cover story, describes how Alan Greenspan's successor, Ben
Bernanke, "will preside over a diminished central bank." (Nov. 7, 2005
issue) Because America depends upon foreign investors to fund its huge
trade deficits, the "Federal" Reserve is having to increasingly kowtow
to other nations' central bankers.
Why has the U.S. balance of trade been consistently dismal? In part
it is because the "free trade" agreements lead to the departure of U.S.
factories. The United States is no longer a manufacturing nation, so it
has little to export. Since we export less, of course we have a trade
deficit!
The recent Americas Summit in Argentina did not go well. South
American nations object to the U.S. subsidization of agriculture. The
United States is the "breadbasket of the world," or has been. We still
at least "manufacture" food here, but that may be about to decline as
did the factories. The central government in Washington, DC has lately
been moving to significantly pare support for our farmers. What is
going on!? Are they nuts!? Who cares if South America doesn't like U.S.
agriculture subsidies?
Ah... You see, it is Antonio Gramsci's "process of patient
gradualism." First was NAFTA. Then CAFTA came creeping in. On the
horizon is a new "systems level" embracing all of the Americas. Of
course, some sort of central government needs must preside over it all.
We have seen how well centralized government works here in the
United States. Imagine how well a global central government is going to
manage things. See you in the future, "comrade."
