Book excerpt: The worldwide financial system was already in crash mode prior to the Coronavirus situation. This book chronicles the false and deceptive narratives in relation to the 'Reset', banking, money creation, globalisation, economics, sustainable development, climate change, and corporate media. These areas have been utilised by a small group of people for the purposes of greed, power and authoritarian control of the world, to the general detriment of the overwhelming majority of the world population. All nations are in vast debt - this worldwide system of debt slavery run by the privately owned world banking system had reached its mathematical endpoint. The 'Reset' attempts to replace it with a fascist system of technocratic authoritarianism under cover a virus. It is an attempt by the WEF, globalist bankers and their political cohorts to retain control and push their fourth industrial revolution agenda of control under cover of a fake pandemic and the fake narrative of sustainable development. The real divide in society is fascist authoritarianism versus freedom.Decades ago, the real sustainability movement was hijacked by the deceptive political scheme of sustainable development, which endorsed unjust debt-money banking and a flawed economic system. Sustainable development is a false narrative operating under cover of continued globalisation.For decades, the international privately owned banking system has created debt-money from nothing and charged all governments and people extortionist interest on it (usury). By this and other mechanisms it bled around 35% of the profits of nations. This resulted in immense wealth and power for a tiny minority that own the private worldwide banking cartel, but placed a financial debt burden of control on the nations of the world.The GDP growth system was needed by the banking system, so that it could receive interest payments on debt-money loans, yet GDP growth caused environmental degradation, social poverty, and wealth inequity in society.The private banking cartel created boom-bust-bailout cycles at will that placed nations in further debt. The real economic welfare of society, as estimated by the GPI, decreased since 1978. The pseudo-science of contemporary economics used by all governments facilitated the process.IN 2020, limits to GDP growth and peak oil appear to be manifesting. Systemic problems in the economic system led to a multi-trillion dollar banking bailout in 2020 that took place under cover of a virus. The serious implications for the future of worldwide society and the potential collapse of industrialised society is outlined. The nefarious economic reset of worldwide societal control, the growing opposition to these fascist changes, and what we must do in the years ahead is described in detail.Having worked at the United Nations Environment Division and as a Science Advisor at the Department of Energy and Climate Change, U.K., Mark Keenan exposes the truth about subjects vital for the welfare of humanity.
Download or read book Globalization Unmasked written by James F. Petras and published by Halifax, N.S. : Fernwood. This book was released on 2001 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the authors contend that "globalization" is little more than imperialism in a new form. They argue that the "inevitability" of globalization and the adjustment or submission of peoples all over the world to free market capitalism depends on the capacity of the dominant and ruling classes to bend people to their will and convince people that their interests are the people's interests. A key element in theorizing about globalization and in organizing to resist it is an understanding that globalization is propagated not to bring a better and more just world to the masses of the people but, as has always been the case with imperialism, to advance the interests of those who already enjoy power and privilege.
Download or read book Globalization Unmasked written by James Petras and published by Zed Books. This book was released on 2001-07 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no word today is used and misused more than globalization. It generally serves to refer to worldwide epoch-defining changes in the organization of societies, economies and politics. But as Petras and Veltmeyer demonstrate, the term globalization obscures much more than it reveals. In practice, globalization provides a cover for a new form of imperialist exploitation and the institution of US hegemony over a global process of capital accumulation. In the last decade, capitalists in Europe and the United States have created favourable conditions for the takeover and recolonization of economies across the developing world. International capital has managed to restore highly profitable returns on investments and operations as never before, creating islands of opulent prosperity within a sea of growing poverty and misery. In effect, this book argues that the terms globalization and imperialism are widely used as alternative frameworks for understanding the dynamics of the same worldwide developments and trends. Employing an imperialist analytical framework over that of globalization not only provides a better understanding but also points towards forces of resistance and opposition that through political action may bring about necessary change.
Download or read book The Collapse of Globalism written by John Ralston Saul and published by Penguin Group Australia. This book was released on 2009-08-31 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IN THE MIDST OF A WORLDWIDE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CRISIS, JOHN RALSTON SAUL REVISITS THE ROLE OF GLOBALISM In 1999, Saul began arguing that Globalism was collapsing. In 2005, he laid out this scenario in The Collapse of Globalism. Now Saul has enlarged the book, showing how today's crisis came about and suggesting what to do next. In this new edition, Saul describes the financial crisis as a mere boil to be lanced. The far more serious problem is that the West remains stuck on outdated ideas of growth, wealth creation and trade expansion. Whereas public policy is still dominated by the people who created this crisis, Saul envisions a new sort of wealth creation and growth and advocates new forms of action. Declared a 'prophet' by Time magazine, Saul offers prescient insights into today's global crisis. PRAISE FOR THE COLLAPSE OF GLOBALISM 'Informative, engaging and, above all, bitingly critical . . .

Download or read book Imperialism and Capitalism in the Twenty First Century written by Raúl Delgado Wise and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-28 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a time of dynamic, but generally regressive regime change-a period in which major political transformations and a rollback of a half-century of legislation are accelerated under conditions of a prolonged and deepening economic crisis and a worldwide offensive against the citizenry and the working class. Written by two of the world’s leading left-wing thinkers, Imperialism and Capitalism in the Twenty-First Century takes the form of a number of analytical probes into some of the dynamics of capitalist development and imperialism in contemporary conditions of a system in crisis. It is too early to be definitive about the form that capitalism and imperialism -and socialism-might be or is taking, as we are in but the early stages of a new developmental dynamic, the conditions of which are too complex to anticipate or grasp in thought; they require a closer look and much further study from a critical development and Marxist perspective. The purpose of this book is to advance this process and give some form to this perspective.

Book excerpt: Contemporary globalization is transforming and undermining the role of the nation-state, causing it to lose its grip on both the national economy and identity. This is a penetrating analysis of this phenomenon and an explorationn of how governments - national, regional, local, global city-regions - can respond. This original selection of essays discusses the impact of globalization on nation-states and the international system, the consequent political and sociological fragmentation of nations, and the rise of multiple identities within those nations. These essays uniquely investigate the dramatic effect of globalization on governance, outlining how sub-state 'governments' have now become international actors. This volume delivers a key insight into the way globalization is reshaping political relationships, and will be of interest to students of politics, international studies and globalization.

Globalisation can be seen to provide the context for epoch-defining changes in social and economic forms of organisation.
