Many of the academic and nonacademic opinions agree on that point, but they are all mistaken. Relative to wages, resources have grown significantly cheaper since 1980, thereby becoming much more abundant. We thus face a seeming contradiction: the more resources we use, the more we end up with. Resolving that requires us to understand the key role played by the creation of knowledge.<br /><br />Knowledge possesses a peculiar characteristic: the more knowledge we consume, the more knowledge we have. Furthermore, generation of new knowledge is the exclusive domain of the human mind. So, the more people who inhabit the planet and partake in global exchange, the more knowledge is created. This new knowledge, in turn, expands our resource base. Globalisation—or the process of interaction and integration between people and companies worldwide—supercharges the process of knowledge creation and knowledge dissemination, thereby leading to greater resource abundance.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Empirical Evidence for Falling Resource Prices</h2><br />The <a href="https://humanprogress.org/the-simon-abundance-index-2021/">Simon Abundance Index</a>, which I coauthored with <a href="https://www.cato.org/people/gale-l-pooley">Gale L. Pooley</a>, is an annual measure of the relationship between population growth and the abundance of 50 basic commodities, including food, energy, materials, minerals, and metals. The base year of the index is 1980, and the base value of the index is 100 percent. In 2020, the index reached 708.4 percent. In other words, the index rose by 608.4 percentage points over the preceding four decades, implying a compound annual growth rate in resource abundance of around 5 percent and a doubling of global resource abundance every 14 years or so.<br /><br />The Simon Abundance Index is measured in time prices, or the number of hours that the average worker must work to earn enough money to buy something. To calculate a commodity’s time price, the nominal price of a commodity is divided by the global average nominal wage per hour worked. Between 1980 and 2020, the average nominal price of the 50 commodities rose by 51.9 percent and the global average nominal hourly wage rose by 412.4 percent. So the average time price of the 50 commodities fell by 75.2 percent.<br /><br />The personal resource abundance multiplier is calculated by dividing the average time price of the 50 commodities in 1980 by the average time price of the 50 commodities in 2020. The multiplier tells us how much more of a resource a person can buy for the same hours of work between two points in time. Pooley and I found that the same hours of work bought one unit in the basket of 50 commodities in 1980 and 4.03 units in the same basket in 2020.<br /><br />The average worker’s personal resource abundance rose by 303 percent. The compound annual growth rate in personal resource abundance amounted to 3.55 percent, implying that personal resource abundance doubled every 20 years.<br /><br />Between 1980 and 2020, the average time price of the 50 commodities fell by 75.2 percent and the world’s population increased by 75.8 percent. So, for every 1 percent increase in the world’s population, the average time price of the 50 commodities decreased by almost 1 percent (i.e., −75.2 percent ÷ 75.8 percent = −0.992 percent).<br /><br />Note that the personal resource abundance analysis looks at resource abundance from the perspective of an individual human being. The question we aim to answer is: How much more abundant have resources become for the average worker?<br /><br />Population resource abundance analysis, in contrast, allows us to quantify the relationship between global resource abundance and global population growth. You can think of the difference between the two levels of analysis by using a pizza analogy. Personal resource abundance measures the size of a slice of pizza per person. Population resource abundance measures the size of the entire pizza pie.<br /><br />The population resource abundance multiplier is calculated by multiplying the change in personal resource abundance with the change in global population (i.e., 4.03 × 1.758). The multiplier of 7.08 corresponds to the 708.4 percent increase in the Simon Abundance Index. It indicates an increase in the global resource abundance of 608.4 percent at a compound annual growth rate of around 5 percent. As such, Pooley and I estimate that global resource abundance doubled every 14 years or so.<br /><br />Finally, let us look at the resource abundance elasticity of population. In economics, elasticity measures one variable’s sensitivity to a change in another variable. If variable x changes by 10 percent, while variable y, because of the change in x, changes by 5 percent, then the elasticity coefficient of x relative to y is 2.0 (i.e., 10 ÷ 5). A coefficient of 2.0 can be interpreted as a 2 percent change in x corresponding to a 1 percent change in y.<br /><br />Pooley and I found that every 1 percent increase in population corresponded to an increase in personal resource abundance (i.e., the size of the slice of pizza) of 4 percent (i.e., 303 ÷ 75.8). We also found that every 1 percent increase in population corresponded to an increase in population resource abundance (i.e., the size of the pizza pie) of 8.03 percent (608.5 ÷ 75.8).<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Knowledge Creation and Resource Expansion</h2><br />There are several ways in which humans can make resources more abundant. To start, consider the increase of supply. When the price of a commodity increases, people have a monetary incentive to start searching for new sources of that commodity. For example, when the price of petroleum increases, people will look for more oil deposits. Thus, after a century of petroleum use, we have more known reserves of oil than ever before. Moreover, much of the Earth’s crust, not to mention the ocean floor, remains unexplored. The potential for finding much more petroleum when the price of oil is high enough to induce us to dig deeper and explore more exotic locations is very high. The supply of petroleum can also be increased through technological change. Many of the oil fields that were previously deemed exhausted still contain a great deal of oil trapped in underground shale rock. Replacing conventional oil drilling with hydraulic fracturing allows us to get at that oil in an economical way. <br /><br />Increased efficiency is also important. Efficiency can increase in relative and absolute ways. For example, when the Coca‐Cola can first appeared on the market in the late 1950s, it contained three ounces of aluminum. Today, it contains half an ounce. Of course, it is possible to decrease the amount of aluminum in each soda can while producing so many cans that the absolute amount of aluminum used increases. Remarkably, Andrew McAfee from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology found that the total amount of resources used by the US economy peaked in the first decade of the new millennium and then started to decline. To be precise, 66 out of 72 resources tracked by the US Geological Survey were “post‐peak” when McAfee wrote his book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/More-Less-Surprising-Learned-Resources_and/dp/1982103574"><i>More from Less</i></a> in 2019. In the meantime, the US economy continued to expand. Similar trends could be observed in the United Kingdom and some other advanced economies. <br /><br />Dematerialisation helps to explain why economic growth and resource use reduction can go hand in hand. Most readers will be familiar with thick blue copper cables that ran from the walls of most hotel rooms in the United States until recently. That cable enabled hotel guests to access the internet—a task that can now be accomplished via Wi‐Fi. No cables are necessary, and all that saved copper can be used somewhere else. The iPhone is another example of dematerialisation, for it replaces (or substantially decreases the need for) calculators, satellite navigation, watches, torches, radios, compasses, cameras, postal mail, telephones, voice recorders, stereos, alarm clocks, and many other things. In addition to the materials not used in the process of making an iPhone, we must also add the energy not used in the mining of the resources that are no longer needed and in the running of all the separate devices that the iPhone replaces. <br /><br />New knowledge can also help us create ever more value from the same resource. Around 5,000 years ago, someone in Mesopotamia noticed that when sand is heated to 3,090 degrees Fahrenheit, it melts and turns to glass. Our distant ancestors’ first use of glass was for decorative purposes, such as glass beads. Sometime later, they started to use sand to make glass jars, cups, and, later still, windows. Today, we use glass in fiberoptic cables and microchips. With every step of the way, the value we derived from a grain of sand increased, and no one knows what marvelous innovations will rely on sand in the future. The <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/6908-knowledge-and-decisions">US economist Thomas Sowell</a> is thus surely correct to observe that </div><div><i><blockquote><span style="font-size: medium;">“the cavemen had the same natural resources at their disposal as we have today, and the difference between their standard of living and ours is a difference between the knowledge they could bring to bear on those resources and the knowledge used today.” </span></blockquote></i>Consider also our ability to turn a previously useless or even harmful resource to our benefit. In the early 20th century, when oil was the primary target of drilling operations, natural gas was often seen as a byproduct with little or no economic value. As such, gas was frequently vented into the atmosphere or flared (burned off), which was wasteful and environmentally harmful. Moreover, natural gas leaks were a significant hazard, particularly in oil fields, where accidental ignitions could lead to explosions. Today in advanced economies, we have the technology to capture, transport, sell, and use gas in great volumes, thereby increasing our resource base and reducing our carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere. <br /><br />Substitution is a crucial economic concept that’s much underappreciated by the public. Generally, we don’t care how we obtain a good or a service, so long as we get it at an acceptable cost. Thus, humans felled forests to get the wood they needed to heat their homes and slaughtered whales to get the lamp oil for illumination. Today, many of us heat and light our homes using electricity derived from a variety of sources, including mostly carbon‐dioxide‐free nuclear fission, with the added benefit that both forests and whales have rebounded. Those concerned about resources that are currently in high demand (such as lithium, which is needed to make batteries for electric vehicles) should take substitution into account. No one knows what resources will be needed to make batteries in 50—let alone 100—years’ time. But new technology‐driven surprises are almost guaranteed. <br /><br />We can also recycle and reuse our resources. The aforementioned copper internet cables, for example, were almost certainly recycled and turned into something else—perhaps copper pipes used in residential plumbing. The 14,000 tons of US government silver, which was used in electromagnets needed by the Manhattan Project to make atomic bombs, was similarly recovered after the end of World War II and added to the stock of precious metals that propped up the value of the US dollar. The point is that atoms of copper, silver, zinc, and much else are only temporarily assigned to perform a certain task. If necessary, they can be extracted and reassigned to make or do something else. <br /><br />While humans have explored only a tiny fraction of our planet, it is theoretically possible that at some point in the distant future we could encounter an acute shortage of a resource, such as the very rare rhodium, which is currently used in catalytic converters. Let us further assume that the limits on the natural supply of that metal cannot be overcome via increased efficiency, dematerialisation, substitution, recycling, or anything else. <br /><br />In such a case, our descendants could turn to transmutation. Transmutation, which was once a province of alchemy, became real in 1919 when scientists turned nitrogen into oxygen. According to an article I coauthored with <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/we-will-never-run-out-of-resources-earth-ocean-tech-knowledge-engineering-e65f88c7">University of Oxford physicist David Deutsch</a>, </div><div><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">“Today, transmutation is everywhere. The smoke detectors in our homes, for example, contain americium—a manmade radioactive metal produced by plutonium’s absorption of neutrons in nuclear reactors. Specialists transmuted lead into gold many years ago—though the process is currently uneconomical, for it requires far too much energy to replace mining.” </span></i></blockquote>The key to transmutation, then, is plentiful, reliable, supercheap energy, which could be provided by, for example, future fusion reactors. Lest we forget, it was via fusion (nucleosynthesis, to be precise) that many of the elements we use on Earth were created in the first place. Incredibly high temperatures and pressures inside different stars transformed lighter elements into heavier ones, and the heavier elements dispersed throughout the universe after supernovae. Some of those elements eventually helped to form our planet and can be mined in Earth’s crust. <br /><br />By the time humanity needs to resort to such sophisticated measures to increase our resource base, we may well be a spacefaring civilisation, mining the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter by ourselves or with the help of AI robots. The belt is rich in resources, including water. Water, which covers 71 percent of our planet, is key, for it contains hydrogen, which also happens to be the most common element in the universe. The Big Bang only created the lightest elements, primarily hydrogen. All other elements are derived from those. A combination of hydrogen and fusion, therefore, could allow us to create everything else we need <i>de novo</i>—indefinitely. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Globalisation, the Spread of Knowledge, and Resource Creation</h2><br />In the 2021 edition of the Simon Abundance Index, Pooley and I found that the time price of wheat fell by 76.1 percent between 1980 and 2020. That means that for the same number of hours of work that would have bought our worker a pound of wheat in 1980, he or she could have bought 4.18 pounds of wheat in 2020. Resource abundance of the worker rose by 318 percent, growing at a compounded annual rate of 3.64 percent, thereby doubling every 19.4 years. (The COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian war on Ukraine affected these numbers negatively, yet Pooley and I found that the trend still holds in the <a href="https://humanprogress.org/the-simon-abundance-index-2024/">2024 edition of the index</a>.)<br /><br />Over the same period (1980–2020), the world’s population rose from 4.44 billion to 7.82 billion, or by 76 percent. Put differently, for every 1 percent increase in global population, the time price of wheat fell by 1 percent. In addition to population growth, the latest round of globalisation, which is generally taken to have started in 1980, added billions of new workers to the global economic exchange. These factors contributed to a massive increase in resource consumption and output not only in the countries on the frontier of innovation, such as the United States and those in Western Europe, but also in the “catch‐up” countries, such as Bangladesh, Brazil, China, India, Vietnam, and the nations of the former Eastern bloc. Personal incomes and consumption rose.<br /><br />Yet wheat, a staple eaten all over the world, became much more abundant. Here the salutary effects of globalisation are easily discernible because several Western companies have been at the forefront of the agricultural revolution that provided technologies, seeds, and farming practices that enhanced wheat productivity in the catch‐up countries. Consider some real‐life examples:</div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Syngenta’s disease‐resistant wheat varieties.</b> Syngenta, a global agribusiness company headquartered in Switzerland, has developed wheat varieties that are resistant to common diseases and pests. For instance, in parts of Africa and Asia, Syngenta’s disease‐resistant wheat varieties have helped farmers combat issues such as wheat rust, a major threat to wheat crops. These varieties have not only increased yields per acre of land but also ensured more stable wheat production.</li><li><b>John Deere’s advanced agricultural machinery.</b> American company John Deere is known for its advanced agricultural machinery. The adoption of this machinery in countries such as India and Ethiopia has revolutionised wheat farming. Mechanised tractors, planters, and harvesters have increased the efficiency of planting and harvesting wheat, leading to higher yields and reduced labor costs.</li><li><b>BASF’s agronomic solutions</b>. German chemical company BASF provides various agronomic solutions, including fertilisers and pesticides, which are crucial in wheat cultivation. For example, in countries such as Mexico and Pakistan, the use of BASF’s fertilisers and pesticides has resulted in better wheat crop health and increased yields by controlling pests and enhancing soil fertility.</li><li><b>Bayer’s crop science innovations</b>. Bayer, following its acquisition of Monsanto, has become a key player in agricultural technologies. The company’s development of integrated crop solutions, including advanced seed treatments and chemical products, has improved wheat yields. For example, in Brazil and parts of Africa, Bayer’s products have helped farmers grow wheat more efficiently, even under challenging climatic conditions.</li><li><b>DuPont’s hybrid wheat seeds.</b> DuPont (now part of Corteva Agriscience after a merger with the Dow Chemical Company) has developed hybrid wheat seeds that are tailored to specific climatic and soil conditions. These seeds have been particularly effective in Eastern Europe and parts of Asia, where they have helped boost wheat yields through improved disease resistance and stress tolerance.</li><li><b>CIMMYT’s collaboration with Western companies.</b> The International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), though not a commercial entity, collaborates with Western companies to develop high‐yielding wheat varieties. CIMMYT’s work in countries such as Kenya and India, often in partnership with Western agricultural companies, has led to the introduction of wheat varieties that are well‐suited to local conditions, resulting in significant yield improvements.</li></ul></div><div>The results of the spread of information and technologies from the countries on the frontier of innovation to the catch‐up countries are readily discernible. In 1980, <a href="https://humanprogress.org/dataset/wheat-yields/data-table/?view=selected">wheat productivity</a> measured in 100 grams per hectare was lower, sometimes substantially, in the catch‐up countries relative to the United States and Western Europe. By 2020, some had overtaken the United States, while all of them, including the United States, remained less productive relative to Western Europe. Still, all the selected catch‐up countries experienced greater productivity gains than the United States and Western Europe between 1980 and 2020.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Environmental Benefit</h2><br />The period of globalisation saw <a href="https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SI.POV.DDAY">absolute poverty</a> (the threshold of which is considered to be earning wages of $2.15 or less per day) measured in 2017 dollars adjusted for purchasing power parity decline from 43.8 percent in 1981 to 8.9 percent in 2019. Concomitantly, the <a href="https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/daily-per-capita-caloric-supply?time=1981..latest&country=~OWID_WRL">calorie supply per person</a> rose from 2,497 in 1981 to 2,928 in 2018, or by 17 percent. In Africa, the world’s poorest continent, the <a href="https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/daily-per-capita-caloric-supply?time=1981..latest&country=~OWID_AFR">calorie supply per person</a> rose from 2,238 to 2,604, or by 16 percent, over the same period. That’s higher than the Portuguese calorie supply in the early 1960s. This trend is likely going to improve in the future, raising the obvious question: What will happen to the animal and plant habitats as humans strive to produce more food and other resources? The answer is once again counterintuitive.<br /><br />Writing about US corn production in 2015, <a href="https://thebreakthrough.org/journal/issue-5/the-return-of-nature">Jesse H. Ausubel</a>, an environmental scientist at the Rockefeller University, said, </div><div><i><blockquote><span style="font-size: medium;">“The average yield of American farmers is nowhere near a ceiling. In 2013, David Hula, a farmer in Virginia, grew a US and probably world record: 454 bushels of corn per acre—three times the average yield in Iowa.… In 2014, Hula’s harvest rose 5 percent higher to 476 bushels, while Randy Dowdy, who farms near Valdosta, Georgia, busted the 500‐bushel wall with a yield of 503 bushels per acre and won the National Corn Growers Contest. ... If we keep lifting average yields toward the demonstrated levels of David Hula and Randy Dowdy … then an area the size of India or of the United States east of the Mississippi could be released globally from agriculture over the next 50 years or so.”</span></blockquote></i>A similar story can also be told of wheat, rice, barley, potatoes, casava, beans, and other crops. There is no obvious limit on our ability to produce ever more staples per hectare, thus returning ever larger chunks of the planet back to nature, except for the generation of knowledge and its dissemination to (and acceptance in) the least developed corners of the world. Whether lab‐grown meat can alleviate the environmental footprint of cattle, chicken, and pig farming is still an open question. At present, the knowledge to <a href="https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2023/12/12/will-lab-grown-meat-ever-make-it-onto-supermarket-shelves">make lab‐grown meat economical</a> does not exist. But knowledge is not stagnant. It grows, and those who are betting against lab‐grown meats may yet lose their shirts. Finally, the exploitation of raw materials has grown much cleaner in recent decades, a trend that’s likely to continue as nations develop and, per the environmental Kuznets curve, place greater emphasis on <a href="https://epi.yale.edu/downloads/epi2022policymakerssummary.pdf">environmental quality</a>.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Conclusion</h2><br />Humans, especially those living in the countries on the frontier of innovation, create knowledge that allows us to grow our resources well in excess of the resources that we consume. Consequently, resources have grown much cheaper relative to wages and, therefore, more abundant. In terms of overall human well‐being, however, it is globalisation that allows the new knowledge to flow from the countries on the frontier of innovation to the catch‐up nations. Finally, the planet and its biosphere benefit as catch‐up nations adopt best practices and begin to approximate the care for the environment that’s characteristic of innovative societies.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">* * * * </div><br /><i><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj01Dype9uDh6hZO_EizfGJ5Zlup7Ktv3f6QZaJUVLAaEQExdRa4_vluA6EZOS3xTWR88uaeFV8WNK9MZgfNJTp3_XdOBT-VKM-VeETns-s209-Vx3uGfe2ihA5OpNuomI4z9A48ioqre_sIv3mePUJIOLhatpzkGgFqhyswUnBc4mujM39p5Tk/s72/marian-tupy-crop-temp.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="72" data-original-width="72" height="55" loading="lazy" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj01Dype9uDh6hZO_EizfGJ5Zlup7Ktv3f6QZaJUVLAaEQExdRa4_vluA6EZOS3xTWR88uaeFV8WNK9MZgfNJTp3_XdOBT-VKM-VeETns-s209-Vx3uGfe2ihA5OpNuomI4z9A48ioqre_sIv3mePUJIOLhatpzkGgFqhyswUnBc4mujM39p5Tk/w55-h55/marian-tupy-crop-temp.jpg" width="55" /></a></div>Marian L.

Because globalisation, as he says, is a "fundamental human activity" that benefits us all ...</span></i><div><br /></div><h1 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Defending Globalisation</span></h1><div><i>Guest post by Don Boudreaux</i><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>T</b></span>HIS PAST SEPTEMBER, THE CATO Institute launched a major new initiative called “Defending Globalisation.” The brainchild of Cato’s prolific international-trade scholar Scott Lincicome, Defending Globalisation is a multimedia project designed to explain the benefits of what is described on <a href="https://www.cato.org/defending-globalization">the project’s website</a> as “all aspects of the fundamentally human activity that we call ‘globalisation.’”<br /><br />Many people, no doubt, will object to globalisation being described as a “fundamentally human activity,” a term that conjures images of a natural process that has long been familiar to humans. But the term is accurate. Globalisation is what happens naturally when individuals in modern society are left free from government restraint to trade – free to offer to sell, and free to offer to buy, with no one compelled to accept any such offers and, importantly, with no politicians or policemen obstructing the offerers and offerees.<br /><br />Trading comes naturally to humans. The trading instinct is the root cause of great commercial cities, ancient and modern. In the past, when transportation and communications were very costly and time-consuming, the natural geographic range over which intensive trading regularly occurred was small. But as the costs of transportation and communications fell, and as each of these activities became faster (with the latter becoming instantaneous literally over the whole earth), the natural geographic range over which intensive trading regularly occurs grew. Today, that natural range for many goods and services spans the entire populated area of the globe.<br /><br />The indisputable truth that today the natural range of trading activity is large – certainly larger than the area of any individual country – comes in an ironic form: tariffs and other government-erected obstructions on trade. Only because people are eager to trade with people in different countries do governments feel the need to suppress this trade.<br /><br />Stated straightforwardly, this truth is undeniable. Nevertheless, it is denied by the many pundits and politicians who assert that elites<u> impose</u> globalisation on ordinary people. The implication is that globalisation is both detrimental to the masses as well as unnatural. Of course, if these pundits and politicians really believed that globalisation is unnatural (and, therefore, must be imposed) they’d be content simply to leave ordinary people free to trade, confident that no, or only minimal, cross-border commerce would occur. The very existence of government-erected restraints on international commerce proves that those persons who are responsible for erecting these restraints understand that what must be imposed is not globalisation – that would arise naturally – but economic nationalism.<br /><br />The allure of economic nationalism, alas, isn’t only real, it’s also powerful. People in different countries and different eras have willingly embraced it. Just why so many people are so easily deluded into believing that they are made better off when their access to goods, services, and investment opportunities is restricted by elites has long been a mystery. This mystery is partly solved by <a href="https://www.econlib.org/library/Enc/PublicChoice.html">public-choice economics</a>: Voters are rationally ignorant, and disproportionate political influence is enjoyed by special-interest producer groups. </div><div><br /></div><div>Another reason is that we humans are likely evolved to see reality as a struggle between “us” and “them,” and therefore the interest groups who stand to gain from protectionism find success in portraying actions that benefit foreigners as actions that harm us and our fellow citizens while simultaneously enriching those who mean us harm. Relevant here is the fact that trade restrictions are invariably described by their peddlers as both “protection” of fellow citizens and “standing up to” or “fighting back against” foreigners.<br /><br />Free trade and globalisation, although great benefactors of humankind, are not naturally popular. It might even be closer to the truth to say that free trade and globalisation are naturally unpopular. Thus they are forever in need of sound defense – which is precisely what is supplied by the Defending Globalisation project.<br /><br />I ENCOURAGE YOU TO READ every essay in this project, many of which remain to be published. I’ve read each that has been published, and attest to their excellence. Here’s a small sample of what you’ll learn.<br /><br />From Johan Norberg’s contribution, titled “<a href="https://www.cato.org/publications/globalization-race-bottom-or-top">Globalisation: A Race to the Bottom – or to the Top?</a>”<br /><i><blockquote><span style="font-size: medium;">In his book '<a href="https://global.oup.com/academic/product/globalization-and-labor-conditions-9780195306002?cc=us&lang=en&">Globalisation and Labor Conditions</a>,' Robert Flanagan summarises the evidence: “Countries that adopt open trade policies have higher wages, greater workplace safety, more civil liberties (including workplace freedom of association), and less child labor.” Flanagan and Niny Khor also document this relationship in “<a href="https://www.oecd.org/site/tadicite/50288509.pdf">Trade and the Quality of Employment: Asian and Non‐Asian Economies,</a>” in the OECD report <a href="https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/trade/policy-priorities-for-international-trade-and-jobs_9789264180178-en">Policy Priorities for International Trade and Jobs</a>.<br /><br />This would be extremely surprising if companies always scoured the globe searching for the lowest‐cost country. But they don’t. If they did, 100 percent of foreign direct investment would go to the least developed countries, but in fact, no more than 2 percent of all foreign direct investment is heading in their direction. Most investment goes to relatively developed countries, and GDP per capita is the strongest influence on labour conditions. On average, richer countries have higher wages, safer jobs, shorter working hours, and stronger labour rights, such as freedom of association and less forced labor.<br /><br />The race‐to‐the‐bottom hypothesis got it wrong because it neglected half the cost‐benefit analysis. If labour compensation (in the broad sense, including working conditions) were just a gift generously bestowed on workers, it would make economic sense to reduce it as much as possible, but in a competitive labor market, it is compensation for the job that someone is doing, and therefore there is a tight link between pay and productivity. Some workers might be twice as well paid as others, but that does not make them uncompetitive if they are also twice as productive.</span></blockquote></i>From Daniel Drezner’s “<a href="https://www.cato.org/publications/dangers-misunderstanding-economic-interdependence">The Dangers of Misunderstanding Economic Interdependence</a>”:<br /><i><blockquote><span style="font-size: medium;">While contemporary fears about excessive interdependence are real, that does not mean that these fears have been realised. Indeed, a quick perusal of the alleged downsides of interdependence reveal that much of what has been feared has not come to fruition.<br /><br />For example, consider the allegations about how China gamed the liberal international order to serve its own revisionist ends. It is undeniably true that as China has grown economically stronger, it has also grown <a href="https://freedomhouse.org/article/best-antidote-beijings-authoritarian-influence-campaign-democracy-itself">more repressive</a> and <a href="https://www.iseas.edu.sg/images/pdf/ISEAS_Perspective_2019_21.pdf">more revisionist</a>. Neither of these facts, however, falsify the liberal theory of international politics.</span> </blockquote><blockquote><span style="font-size: medium;">The liberal argument posits that interdependence constrains rising powers from pursuing more bellicose policies than they otherwise would have. It says next to nothing about interdependence triggering democratisation. It is possible that China can repress domestically while still <a href="https://direct.mit.edu/isec/article-abstract/44/1/117/12241/Cautious-Bully-Reputation-Resolve-and-Beijing-s">acting in a constrained manner</a> on the global stage. Most of China’s alleged revisionist actions have been exaggerated. For example, neither the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) bank nor the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank have challenged the Bretton Woods Institutions. Claims that the Belt and Road Initiative is an example of <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23792949.2019.1689828?casa_token=MNDZxlOOXxgAAAAA%3AvxAvBIzPHy9qKQjSX7UZAFe2qT9W8WE529qUOYXpm-NjdR72qrvO9jgIFoyMetBHbWxAcoeNZcK1">debt‐trap diplomacy</a> have also been wildly exaggerated; indeed, if anything, <a href="https://www.aiddata.org/data/china-as-an-international-lender-of-last-resort-dataset-version-1-0">China’s recent lending practices</a> suggest that it will not weaponise debts from the Global South. While China has built new institutions outside the purview of the United States, none of them contradict the principles of the liberal international order.</span></blockquote></i>And from Daniel Griswold’s “<a href="https://www.cato.org/publications/misplaced-nostalgia-less-globalized-past">The Misplaced Nostalgia for a Less Globalised Past</a>”:<br /><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Even these adjusted income data understate the gains enjoyed by American workers in our more globalised era. In '<a href="https://www.cato.org/books/superabundance">Superabundance: The Story of Population Growth, Innovation, and Human Flourishing on an Infinitely Bountiful Planet</a>,' Cato scholars Marian Tupy and Gale Pooley compare time prices (how many hours people must work on average to acquire various goods and services) across decades and find that American workers have experienced dramatic gains since the 1970s.</span></i> </blockquote><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">In particular, they calculate that the number of hours an average U.S. blue‐collar worker would have to work to afford a basket of 35 consumer goods fell by 72.3 percent between 1979 and 2019. For example, in 1979, a coffeemaker cost $14.79 while the average blue‐collar worker earned $8.34 per hour, meaning he would have to work 1.77 hours to buy the coffeemaker. By 2019, a comparable coffeemaker sold for $19.99 while the average blue‐collar worker earned $32.36 an hour, translating to a time price of 0.62 an hour — a 65 percent decline.</span></i> </blockquote><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Using the same methodology, the authors found similar improvements for other household goods: the time price of a dishwasher had fallen by 61.5 percent; for a washing machine, by 64.6 percent; for a dryer, 61.8 percent; for a child’s crib, 90 percent; for a women’s blazer, 69 percent; and for women’s pants, 44.6 percent.</span></i></blockquote>Today's workers are better off than in decades past not only because familiar goods have become more affordable, but also because new types of products have come on the market and spread rapidly.<br /><br />Again, the above selections are only a slim sample of the impressive abundance of wisdom, insight, and information that await you at “<a href="https://www.cato.org/defending-globalization" target="_blank">Defending Globalisation</a>.” Embrace it.</div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">* * * * </div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img height="200" loading="lazy" src="https://www.aier.org/wp-content/webpc-passthru.php?src=https://www.aier.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/boudreaux-1-e1570716225729-wpv_254x234.jpg&nocache=1" width="193" /></div><br />Donald J.

The book argued that globalisation was a success story. In large parts of the developing world, poverty, infant mortality and illiteracy were falling, life expectancy was rising, nutrition was improving, and democracy was spreading. These positive trends were, according to the younger Norberg, likely to continue, and they were not a product of chance. They were a result of the spread of capitalism.<br /><br />At the time, this was considered an outrageous thing to say.... The almost universally accepted conventional wisdom of the day was that “globalisation” meant the exploitation of poor countries by multinational corporations, and that the world was going from bad to worse. ...<br /><br />With his most recent book <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Capitalist-Manifesto-Global-Market-World-ebook/dp/B0BQD25CWP/"><i>The Capitalist Manifesto: Why the Global Free Market Will Save the World</i></a>, Norberg goes back to the beginning.... The era of “globalisation” is generally said to have started around 1990, so when <i>In Defence of Global Capitalism</i> came out, it was still in its relatively early stages. We now have three decades to go by. What happened in those three decades?<br /><br />Quite a lot. </div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Extreme poverty fell from 38% of the world’s population to less than 10%, </li><li>child and infant mortality fell from 9.3% to 3.7%, </li><li>global life expectancy increased from 64 years to over 70 years, </li><li>illiteracy dropped from 25.7% to 13.5%, </li><li>child labour decreased from 16% to 10%, and so on, and so forth. </li></ul>The countries and regions which performed best are the ones which did precisely the opposite of what the anti-globalisation movement wanted them to do, while the most spectacular counterexample is the movement’s erstwhile poster child of Venezuela. ...<br /><br />There are genuine problems, though. In some Western countries, NIMBYism is driving up the cost of housing. This makes it harder for people to move to where the best job opportunities are, and it gives younger generations a worse deal. In addition, the extension of occupational licensing is erecting market entry barriers. None of this has anything to do with “neoliberalism” or “hyperglobalisation”, though – quite the opposite....</div><div><br />But have classical liberals benefited from this, in any way? Has being right made us more successful in winning over hearts and minds? Are there more people now who embrace free-market capitalism, or who at least accept that, even if they don’t like it, it is the most powerful motor of economic and social progress known to man? <br /><br />Very far from it ... in addition to the anti-capitalist Left, we have also seen the rise of an anti-liberal Right. ... Where <i>In Defence of Global Capitalism</i> was able to concentrate on one enemy, The Capitalist Manifesto has to fight a two-front war. Some chapters are primarily aimed at the anti-capitalist Left, others are primarily aimed at the anti-liberal Right, and some could apply to both in roughly equal measure. ...<br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Chapter 3</b> concentrates on the ... misplaced nostalgia for the economic structure of the postwar decades ... Norberg shows that automation and productivity improvements have contributed far more to job losses in the manufacturing industries than free trade, and that ... the same processes that make some jobs redundant also lower consumer prices and thereby make us richer, [creating] demand for new jobs in other sectors ...</li><li><b>Chapter 4</b> addresses the old Marxist idea that wealth must be built on exploitation, but also some of the more recent literature on inequality, such as Thomas Piketty’s <i>Capital in the Twenty-First Century</i> and <i>The Spirit Level</i> by Kate Pickett and Richard Wilkinson. In market economies, people do not get rich by exploiting others. They get rich because they offer something that lots of people are prepared to pay for. Left-wing celebrity authors like Michael Moore and Bernie Sanders understand that perfectly well when it comes to their own book sales, but they are not capable of extending that logic to entrepreneurial activities. ...</li><li><b>Chapter 5</b> picks up another perennial Marxist theme: the idea that capitalism supposedly leads to greater and greater industry concentration over time. ... The best antidote to worrying too much about market concentration, though, is to read an article from 20 or 30 years ago that was worrying about the same thing. This is because a lot of the behemoths of yesteryear have since faded into obscurity. ...</li><li>If there is one thing those of us on the pro-globalisation side were wrong about 20 years ago (and in <b>Chapter 7</b>, Norberg is very open about that), it was our belief that freer trade and freer markets would lead to the spread of Western liberal values, and Western-style liberal democracies. In China, this has clearly not happened. Under Xi Jinping, China has gone into reverse, both in terms of economic and political liberty. However, none of this means that economic nationalists, who seek to decouple Western economies from China, are right.... </li><li>One of the weirder phenomena of the past five years or so was the rise of a new wave of militant, anti-capitalist eco-movements: the Greta Thunberg movement, Extinction Rebellion, Just Stop Oil, and their various offshoots and counterparts in other countries. It is weird because it happened after the environmentalist side had already won the debate on climate change. ... On green issues, anti-capitalists are as wrong as they are about everything else. As Norberg shows in <b>Chapter 8</b>, market economies can and do address environmental problems very effectively.</li></ul><div>All in all, the slightly older Norberg skewers the bad of ideas of the 2020s as effectively as the young Norberg skewered the bad idea of the early 2000s. <br /></div></div></div><div style="text-align: right;">>> FULL REVIEW HERE: <a href="https://iea.org.uk/book-review-the-capitalist-manifesto-why-the-global-free-market-will-save-the-world-by-johan-norberg-part-1/" target="_blank">PART ONE</a>  AND <a href="https://iea.org.uk/book-review-the-capitalist-manifesto-why-the-global-free-market-will-save-the-world-by-johan-norberg-part-2/">PART TWO</a>.</div><div style="text-align: right;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Moderna and Pfizer‐BioNTech produced those vaccines, saving millions of lives and helping to reopen the world. According to the Nobel Assembly, the awardees “contributed to the unprecedented rate of vaccine development during one of the greatest threats to human health in modern times.”<br />    "[Writing] in December of 2020 just as the vaccines were about to come online[, t]he COVID vaccines, <a href="https://www.cato.org/commentary/covid-vaccines-are-triumph-globalization">Scott Lincicome rightly pointed out</a>, were a triumph of globalisation.<br />    "The much‐deserved Nobel Prize to Karikó and Weissman highlights that truth.<br />    "It was the flow of people, ideas, capital, goods and services that made it possible to discover and produce a vaccine in record time…<br />    "First, [this is a story] about immigrants. Karikó is Hungarian and went to work in Philadelphia ... Moderna’s co‐founder and chairman of the board, meanwhile, is of Armenian descent, born in Lebanon and immigrated first to Canada and then to the United States. The company’s other executives, like those at Pfizer, hail from numerous countries.<br />    "Global capital markets also played a role by providing the massive funding needed ... The production and distribution of the vaccine required complex international collaboration in terms of logistics, shipping, storage, and supply chains ...<br />    "None of the above could have been accomplished by a preconceived government plan.

So I checked a working definition of globalisation, from an organisation that's so ill-disposed towards libertarianism they refer to something called neoliberalism (one of those "<a href="https://www.aier.org/article/academic-lies-about-free-market-economists/" target="_blank">academic lies about free-market economists</a>") ...</p><i><blockquote>Neoliberalism [says something called the '<a href="https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-54161-3_376" target="_blank">Dictionary of Global Bioethics</a>'] is the dominant ideology of globalisation. It is a conglomerate of ideas focused on promoting the free market such as competition, privatisation, deregulation, reduction of public expenditure, tax reform, and protection of property rights. According to such an ideology globalisation is basically liberalisation and will foster individual liberty and human well-being when global markets are free.</blockquote></i>So it looks like globalism means, in order: <div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>the free market, </li><li>privatisation, </li><li>deregulation, </li><li>reduction of public expenditure, </li><li>tax reform, </li><li>protection of property rights, </li><li>individual liberty, </li><li>human well-being and </li><li>global markets.</li></ul><div>So what's not to like, anti-globalists?</div><div><br /></div></div><div><b><u>UPDATE 1:</u></b></div><br />An example from the anti-globalist swamp, this one from the species <i>Duplicitous Trumpus</i>, speaking [sic] <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2023/09/27/trump_i_risked_it_all_to_defend_working_class_from_corrupt_political_class_sucking_the_life_out_of_this_country.html" target="_blank">just this afternoon</a>:<br /><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">I want a future that protects American labor, not foreign labor.

That is: how we nonetheless ended up at the end of the twentieth century with at least as great a degree of economic globalisation as at the end of the nineteenth, despite the Gramscian capture of the bureaucratic and educational institutions (and the antediluvian nationalism -- both economic <i>and</i> political -- that's been destroying it since).</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The main cause seems to be that the Gramscian "long march through the institutions" was opposed by a Hayekian one. They simply chose different institutions on which to focus.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And that's the crucial difference. While Gramsci's activists were capturing the teachers colleges, protest movements, and philosophy and sociology departments, Hayek's followers (many of them) were capturing the global institutions.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The key thing to grasp from that chart above is that the high in the Year 2000 was achieved when there was achieved almost a global consensus on free trade and global markets, on deregulation and self-regulating markets, on individual liberty and human rights,  tax reform and fiscal responsibility, etc. -- and also when anti-capitalist protests outside WTO meetings were at their height. The consensus was that these things were <i>good. </i>The strange thing is that it was mainly the protesters outside the meetings who understood how that consensus within had been achieved.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">So one of the very strange things about this, is that the story of <i>how</i> that increasing post-war economic globalisation was achieved is mostly told by its enemies. And some of the least irrational accounts credit the ingenious advocacy by a group (including Hayek, Gottfried Habeler, Ludwig Von Mises and Wilhem Ropke) to use global political institutions <i>like</i> the WTO and the IMF to promote this cause. Their work began pre-war. From Quinn Slobodian' s book <i>Globalists</i>, for example, comes this tale:</div><i><blockquote><span style="font-size: medium;">Röpke himself pointed out in 1937 that macroeconomics encouraged the national frame of policy, including what he called “self-contained national income theory.”157 The nation-state was the assumed, if not the explicit, container for projects of planning and later the distribution of the welfare state’s social services and benefits. Geneva School neoliberals felt that this confidence was misplaced and drew a line around the nation when the frame of analysis should encompass the world....<br />    In a decade [the 1930s] when most solutions inspired by Keynes, Moscow, and Schacht were national, and [central] planning was in the air, Röpke and his collaborators in Paris, Geneva, and Eastern Europe thought at the scale of the globe.<br />    The neoliberals [sic] gave a name to the enemy in the 1930s and 1940s: “economic nationalism.” The term, which today is commonplace, refers to governments enacting policies that block or slow trade ... <br />    Against the enemy doctrine of economic nationalism, neoliberals posed what Michael Heilperin, in his contribution to the 1939 International Studies Conference, called “economic internationalism.” He defined this as “a policy intended to prevent political boundaries from exercising any disturbing effect on economic relations between areas on the two sides of the frontier.”7 Economic internationalism sought to make political borders mere lines on the map with no effect on the flow of goods and capital. By contrast, economic nationalism pursued the misguided goals of national self-sufficiency, autarky, “insulation,” and “autonomy”—the latter being categories that Heilperin put in quotation marks to express his skepticism. Neoliberals saw economic nationalism as a revolt against interdependence that could lead only to starvation or wars of expansion. Globalization could not be undone. To shield a national economy from the forces of world competition in any way was a sign of secession from the international community. Neoliberals saw the root of the problem in the tension between the twin Wilsonian principles of national self-determination and economic free trade.</span></blockquote></i>That is, between the competing ideas of political nationalism and economic globalisation. The use of global political institutions was intended to counter that -- using their global framework to push economic liberalisation worldwide.<br /><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">[T]he distinction between the political and economic realms was central. Nations could have formal sovereignty while still remaining deeply connected economically.... Atomistic national political equality, in other words, could coexist within what [Moritz] Bonn called the “invisible economic empire” of trade and exchange that was global. A political world of borders could coexist, and had coexisted ... within a borderless world economy....<br />    Accepting that political frontiers could not be eliminated, and that nationalism was a force that spoke to people in an ineradicable way, they sought what Bonn called the “sterilisation of frontiers.” “If frontiers were no longer obstacles to international economic intercourse,” he wrote, “they would lose part of their sinister significance.” The idea was to reconstitute the invisible economic empire of exchange and trade overlaid with a grid of externally bounded political units called nations.</span></i></blockquote>Despite their many problems, global political institutions like the WTO, IMF World Bank were used to promote this cause. One method, imperfect as it was, was to promote the so-called Washington Consensus (ironic, since Washington DC itself could barely follow one of the ten-point "consensus"). Critics of the process [in their diatribe <i>Neoliberalism: A Very Short Introduction</i>] bewail the worldwide spread, half a century later, of the Hayekian "long march through the global institutions":<div><blockquote style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In some cases, domestic elites, educated in elite universities abroad, embraced neoliberalism enthusiastically. Others adopted it only grudgingly because they felt that they had no choice but to swallow the bitter pill of structural adjustment demands that inevitably accompanied much-needed IMF or World Bank loan offers. Although Chicago School economists like Friedman disliked the 1940s Keynesian regulatory framework under which the IMF and World Bank had originally been devised, their neoliberal ideological descendants in the 1990s managed to capture the upper echelons of power in these international economic institutions. With the support of the world’s sole remaining superpower, they eagerly exported the ‘Washington Consensus’ to the rest of the world.</span></blockquote><p>Readers might remember that New Zealand<i> </i>itself was a beneficiary in the 1980s. And that a former New Zealand Prime Minister was to become head of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). And even that the consensus was so widespread, and so powerful, that even the former left-wing activist Phil Goff could be lauded at one time as one of the best advocates in global closed-door discussions for free trade!</p><blockquote><i><span style="font-size: medium;">The ‘<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Williamson_(economist)#Washington_Consensus" target="_blank">Washington Consensus</a>’ is often viewed as synonymous with ‘neoliberalism.’ Coined in the 1980s by the free-market economist <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Williamson_(economist)" target="_blank">John Williamson</a> [whose work was mainly on the institutions necessary for economic progress and stability], the term refers to the ‘lowest common denominator of policy advice’ directed at mostly Latin American countries by the IMF, the World Bank, and other Washington-based international economic institutions and think tanks. In the 1990s, it became the global framework for ‘proper’ economic development. In exchange for much-needed loans and debt-restructuring schemes, governments in the global South were required to adhere to the Washington Consensus by following its ten-point programme:</span></i> </blockquote><span><ol style="text-align: left;"><blockquote><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">A guarantee of fiscal discipline, and a curb to budget deficit </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">A reduction of public expenditure, particularly in the military and public administration </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Tax reform, aiming at the creation of a system with a broad base and with effective enforcement  </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Financial liberalisation, with interest rates determined by the market </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Competitive exchange rates, to assist export-led growth </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Trade liberalisation, coupled with the abolition of import licensing and a reduction of tariffs </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Promotion of foreign direct investment </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Privatisation of state enterprises, leading to efficient management and improved performance </span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Deregulation of the economy</span></i></li><li><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Protection of property rights</span></i></li></blockquote></ol></span>Which rather brings us back to the point at the top of this (now over-long) post: that if <i>this</i> is globalism (global political institutions used to push back economic nationalism and primitivism), then <b>what's not to like</b>?<br /><br /></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='facebook-share'> <a name='fb_share' rel='nofollow' share_url='http://pc.blogspot.com/2023/09/so-whats-wrong-with-globalisation-anti.html' type='button'></a><script src='http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share' type='text/javascript'></script> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Peter Cresswell</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://pc.blogspot.com/2023/09/so-whats-wrong-with-globalisation-anti.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://pc.blogspot.com/2023/09/so-whats-wrong-with-globalisation-anti.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2023-09-28T08:58:00+13:00'>08:58:00</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/11906042/4355276248373080516' onclick=''> 7 comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/11906042/4355276248373080516' title='Email Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='13' src='//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1688440654'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=11906042&postID=4355276248373080516&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=11906042&postID=4355276248373080516&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=11906042&postID=4355276248373080516&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

His haters. And man, do they hate him. I find the virtual hostility to Zelenskyy incredibly disturbing. It is most pronounced among what we might refer to as the post-Covid right – that corner of the world wide web where the understandable agitation with lockdown has morphed over time into anti-vax conspiracism, an unhealthy obsession with the World Economic Forum, a distrust of everything and everyone, and a cast-iron conviction that Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a puppet of the globalist elites determined to drag us all into World War 3.<br />    "It’s like a mirror image of the liberal-elite fawning: where that lot dreams Zelenskyy will help to bring about the ‘<a href="https://www.journalofdemocracy.org/the-rebirth-of-the-liberal-world-order/">rebirth of the liberal world order</a>’, the Ukraine cynics think he <u>is</u> the liberal world order. The new world order. A mouthpiece of globalism. Zelensky is ‘working with globalists against the interests of his own people’, says <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/candace-owens-zelensky-bad-character-ukraine-1689214">Candace Owens</a>. He’s a ‘globalist puppet for Soros and the Clintons’, said <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/trump-backed-gop-state-senator-attacks-globalist-zelensky-claims-bankers-pushing-wwiii/">Arizona State senator Wendy Rogers</a>. Apparently he’s aligned with those ‘global bankers’ who are ‘shoving godlessness and degeneracy in our face.’ <a href="https://www.scotsman.com/news/opinion/columnists/as-donald-trump-jr-calls-volodymyr-zelensky-an-ungrateful-international-welfare-queen-europe-must-shore-up-support-for-ukraine-scotsman-comment-3964342">Donald Trump Jnr</a> reckons he’s an ‘international welfare queen’. You don’t have to be a fan of the West’s sending of ever-more weaponry to Ukraine to recognise how infantile it is to describe an invaded nation’s plea for arms as welfare queenery. Talk about globalising the culture war....<br />    "There’s a very important debate to be had about Russia, Ukraine, the West and war in the modern era. But what we’ve mostly had over the past year is the cheap exploitation of a serious global conflict to score points in petty wars at home. Chaise-longue Churchills on one side, armchair Chamberlains on the other. And they’re all really talking about themselves, not <a href="https://www.spiked-online.com/tag/ukraine/">Ukraine</a>. Let’s change the record. Maybe Zelenskyy is neither saint nor sinner. Neither the world’s saviour nor its destroyer. Maybe he’s just a man doing what he thinks is best in the most horrifying and existential of circumstances. Call me a brainless dupe of Davos propaganda, but that’s what I’m going with."</span></i><br /><blockquote>~ Brendan O'Neill, from his op-ed '<a href="https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/02/25/the-two-zelenskys/" target="_blank">The Two Zelenskyys</a>'</blockquote></blockquote><blockquote></blockquote><div><br /></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='facebook-share'> <a name='fb_share' rel='nofollow' share_url='http://pc.blogspot.com/2023/03/i-find-virtual-hostility-to-zelenskyy.html' type='button'></a><script src='http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share' type='text/javascript'></script> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Peter Cresswell</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://pc.blogspot.com/2023/03/i-find-virtual-hostility-to-zelenskyy.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://pc.blogspot.com/2023/03/i-find-virtual-hostility-to-zelenskyy.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2023-03-02T11:22:00+13:00'>11:22:00</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/11906042/8610670204792778739' onclick=''> 3 comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/11906042/8610670204792778739' title='Email Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='13' src='//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1688440654'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=11906042&postID=8610670204792778739&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=11906042&postID=8610670204792778739&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=11906042&postID=8610670204792778739&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Compared to many other animals, we are not particularly strong or fast, we don’t have armour, we can’t fly and are not very good at swimming. But we have something else that gives us an overwhelming advantage: we have each other....<br />    "Man is a trader by nature. We constantly exchange know-how, favours and goods with others, so that we can accomplish more than we would if we were limited to our own talents and experiences....<br />    "Present-day globalisation is nothing but the extension of this cooperation across borders, all over the world, making it possible for more people than ever to make use of the ideas and work of others, no matter where they are on the planet. This has made the modern global economy possible, which has liberated almost 130,000 people from poverty every day for the last twenty-five years....<br />    "[A]uthoritarian China is not a counter-example to the case that progress depends on openness. When China was most open it led the world in wealth, science and technology, but by shutting its ports and minds to the world five-hundred years ago, the planet’s richest country soon became one of its poorest. China’s present comeback is the result of a new, partial opening since 1979, and it is doing spectacularly well in the areas that have been opened, and failing miserably in the ones that have not. Chinese businesses competing on world markets have lifted millions of workers out of poverty, but protected state-owned enterprises are destroying wealth in growing rust belts. When Chinese scholars work in areas the party approves of, they end up in prestigious science journals, but when they sound the alarm about a new virus or something else that embarrasses its leaders, they end up in jail. China’s Communist Party wants both the benefits of openness and the certainty of control. China’s future will depend on which tendency wins out in the end."</span></i><div>          ~ Johan Norberg, from his book <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Open-Story-Progress-Johan-Norberg/dp/1786497182" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Open: The Story Of Human Progress</span></a></i></div><div></div></blockquote><div><br /></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='facebook-share'> <a name='fb_share' rel='nofollow' share_url='http://pc.blogspot.com/2021/04/chinas-future-will-depend-on-which.html' type='button'></a><script src='http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/connect.php/js/FB.Share' type='text/javascript'></script> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/10699845031503699181' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Peter Cresswell</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://pc.blogspot.com/2021/04/chinas-future-will-depend-on-which.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://pc.blogspot.com/2021/04/chinas-future-will-depend-on-which.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2021-04-29T09:10:00+12:00'>09:10:00</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/11906042/2814709988136009264' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/11906042/2814709988136009264' title='Email Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='13' src='//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1688440654'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=11906042&postID=2814709988136009264&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=11906042&postID=2814709988136009264&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=11906042&postID=2814709988136009264&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Murphy</i><br /><div><br /></div><div><h3 style="text-align: left;">The Rich and the Poor Under Capitalism</h3>You might have heard the phrase, “the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.”<br /><br />Yes, it’s true that the rich (tend to) get richer, but the poor get richer too—especially if we look at a time span of <a href="https://fee.org/articles/10-solutions-to-intergenerational-poverty/">decades or longer</a>, and if we focus our attention on people living in countries where governments adhere to a basic respect for the rule of law and property rights.<br /><br />Consider: Even those who would be called “poor” in today’s Europe or the United States have a <a href="https://fee.org/articles/what-most-americans-dont-know-about-extreme-poverty/">standard of living</a> that would astonish the nobles entertained in the Court of Versailles of Louis XIV (who lived from 1638-1715). Forget about private jets, air conditioning, television, wifi, or automatic elevators: the guests of the famous Sun King didn’t even have flushing toilets, which reportedly <a href="https://thisisversaillesmadame.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-lack-of-toilets.html">caused serious problems</a> at heavily attended parties. Nutrition and medical care wasn’t the best back then, either: Of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_XIV_of_France#Marriages_and_children">six children</a> Louis XIV had with his first wife, only one survived to adulthood, and even he died (at <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis,_Grand_Dauphin">age 49</a>) before his father, such that (because of other early deaths) the crown passed to Louis XIV’s five-year-old great-grandson upon his own death. And don't even think about dentistry ...<br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Capitalism and Economic Stagnation</h3>“Okay, sure,” you might hear. “Inventors make discoveries every now and then, so over the course of centuries that piles up and even average people end up richer. That’s just the operation of science and technology. But I’m talking about the economic process under unregulated capitalism, which is characterised by stagnation for most participants.”<br /><br />Actually, that summary gets things backwards. For most of recorded history, humans had very slowly rising living standards, but then <a href="https://fee.org/articles/were-seeing-massive-reductions-in-global-poverty/">material progress suddenly exploded</a>:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" src="https://fee.org/media/28563/deirdre.png?width=600&height=509.8265895953757" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">[Source: <a href="https://www.aei.org/publication/explaining-again-the-most-important-chart-in-economic-history/">American Enterprise Institute</a>]</div><br />As the chart makes clear, our current living standards vis-a-vis the nobles at the Palace of Versailles are not merely due to routine technological inventions; the progress in the last few centuries is literally unprecedented. In a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/04/upshot/the-formula-for-a-richer-world-equality-liberty-justice.html">2016 New York Times column</a>, economic historian Deirdre McCloskey explains the astonishing surge in economic growth in this way:<br /><blockquote><i>[A] mere idea, which the philosopher and economist Adam Smith called “the liberal plan of equality, liberty and justice.” In a word, it was liberalism, in the free-market European sense. Give masses of ordinary people equality before the law and equality of social dignity, and leave them alone, and it turns out that they become extraordinarily creative and energetic.</i></blockquote><h3 style="text-align: left;">The Problem of Inequality</h3>“Yes,” you might hear, “we know socialism doesn’t work, and that the modern capitalist approach gives people an incentive to build and keep great fortunes. But those ‘per capita’ figures hide the massive inequalities in a largely unregulated system. Capitalism is great at producing but not at distributing fairly.”<br /><br />Again, this misreads the historical record. It was precisely the “lower classes” who <a href="https://fee.org/articles/free-enterprise-is-the-worlds-only-successful-strategy-for-reducing-poverty/">benefitted the most from the economic progress</a> unleashed in the so-called Industrial Revolution and beyond. Yes, the “captains of industry” personally became quite rich, but the rise of big business primarily <a href="https://fee.org/articles/5-charts-that-will-shift-your-perspective-on-poverty/">benefited the working class</a>. After all, the titans of industry engaged in “mass production” in order to sell products to… the masses.<br /><br />For example, in the United States during the “Roaring ’20s”—and under the laissez-faire administration of Calvin Coolidge—regular American households saw a fantastic improvement in their quality of living. Gene Smiley explains: “A key to much of this growth was the spreading use of commercially generated electricity,” which in turn allowed average consumers to obtain “refrigerators, phonographs, electric irons, electric fans, electric lighting, toasters, vacuum cleaners, and other household appliances.” (Gene Smiley, Rethinking the Great Depression (Chicago: Ivan R. Dee, 2002), pp. 5-6.)<br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Capitalism and Exploitation</h3>“Fair enough," people say, "there may have been some low-hanging fruit when regular households didn’t have the things we now take for granted. But in more recent history, the forces of unrestrained liberalism are actually hurting the most vulnerable. Maybe not in the United States and other advanced countries, but certainly in poorer countries that are often exploited in international affairs.”<br /><br />On the contrary, this too gets the facts backwards. As the <a href="http://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/poverty/overview">World Bank reports</a>, in the two decades from 1990 to 2010 the global rate of "extreme poverty" (defined as people living on less than $1.90 per day) was <i>cut in half</i>. In <i>half</i>! Back in 1990, 1.85 billion people lived in extreme poverty, but by 2013, the figure had dropped to 767 million—meaning the number of those living on less than $1.90 per day had <i>fallen by more than a billion people</i>.</div><div><br /></div><div>This is historically unprecedented!

Here’s their update …</em></p> <blockquote> <p>Amid all the commemorations of the centenary of the First World War, one question has largely remained unanswered.  One that, with free trade deals very much on the agenda - even with dictatorships -  still resonates today. <br />    It was said by classical advocates of free trade like Frederic Bastiat and Richard Cobden that trade itself is a civilising influence - that <i>“if goods don’t cross borders, then armies will.”</i> Yet it would be fair to say that in the year of 1914 when the guns of August began roaring, that creed was proved spectacularly wrong. <br />    Because, at that time, never before had so much been traded with so many. With the network of world trade exporting the industrial revolution to every corner of the globe, the degree of ‘globalisation’ enjoyed then has still not been surpassed a century later. Never before in the history of the world had there been more goods crossing more borders -- yet, when Germany invaded France and Britain entered the war, the German army became at war with her country’s two largest trading partners.</p> <p><i>So, were the Guns of August also the death knell for the promise of free trade delivering peace?</i></p> <p>In this provocative presentation, <i>Peter Cresswell</i> offers a novel answer to this important question.</p> <p><i>   <strong> Date:</strong> Thursday, 14 May <br /><strong>    </strong></i><i><strong>Time:</strong> 6-7pm <br /> <strong>   </strong></i><i><strong>Venue:</strong> Room 040C, Level Zero, Business School Building <br />                      (NB: plenty of parking in the Business School basement, entrance off Grafton Rd.)</i></p> <p>All welcome.

The millions slaughtered on the battlefield for neither strategic nor tactical gain; the millions who died immediately afterwards of the influenza epidemic exacerbated by the war; and the hundreds of millions who have died and suffered since because of the death, not just of those millions, but of what the world had begun to glimpse in the century before: a culture in which peace and prosperity and reason and freedom had become the new normal.</p> <p>This is what we lost. This, not the horror, is what I want to talk about: “<a title="World War One and the End of the Bourgeois Century" href="http://mises.org/daily/6830/World-War-One-and-the-End-of-the-Bourgeois-Century">what the war relegated to the dustbin of history</a>.”</p> <p>The world we lost was one in which there were no passports and no income taxes, and globalisation (measured in reach of international trade) was greater than it has ever been before or since.  A world in which the great scientific achievements which form the basis of our world were discovered. A world in which the great new artistic achievements were not <a title="'Fountain' - Marcel Duchamp" href="http://pc.blogspot.co.nz/2006/09/fountain-marcel-duchamp.html" target="_blank">pissoirs</a>, <a title="Hirst's pickled shark is rotting and needs to be replaced.

The existential atmosphere (which was then being destroyed by Europe's philosophical trends and political systems) still held a (today) incredible benevolence, i.e., a smiling, confident good will of man to man, and of man to life.<sup>1</sup></font></p> </blockquote> <p>This was the culture not seen on earth since the days of Classical Greece, but this time with the full political and economic manifestation of the values of that classical world. The peaceful motto of its worldwide division of labour could be taken from the popular slogan of victorious free traders: where goods don’t cross borders, armies will. A slogan recognising warriors and traders to be history’s ultimate antagonists – that this will kill that, and vice versa.</p> <blockquote> <p><font face="Arial">Trade does not flourish on battlefields, factories do not produce under bombardments, profits do not grow on rubble. Capitalism is a society of <em>traders</em>—for which it has been denounced by every would-be gunman who regards trade as "selfish" and conquest as "noble." <br />    Let those who are actually concerned with peace observe that <em>capitalism gave mankind the longest period of peace in history</em>—a period during which there were no wars involving the entire civilised world—from the end of the Napoleonic wars in 1815 to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. <br />    It must be remembered that the political systems of the nineteenth century were not pure capitalism, but mixed economies. The element of freedom, however, was dominant; it was as close to a century of capitalism as mankind has come. But the element of statism kept growing throughout the nineteenth century, and by the time it blasted the world in 1914, the governments involved were dominated by statist policies. <br />    Just as, in domestic affairs, all the evils caused by statism and government controls were blamed on capitalism and the free market—so, in foreign affairs, all the evils of statist policies were blamed on and ascribed to capitalism. Such myths as "capitalistic imperialism," "war-profiteering," or the notion that capitalism has to win "markets" by military conquest are examples of the superficiality or the unscrupulousness of statist commentators and historians. <br />    The essence of capitalism's foreign policy is <em>free trade</em>—i.e., the abolition of trade barriers, of protective tariffs, of special privileges—the opening of the world's trade routes to free international exchange and competition among the private' citizens of all countries dealing directly with one another. During the nineteenth century, it was free trade that liberated the world, undercutting and wrecking the remnants of feudalism and the statist tyranny of absolute monarchies.<sup>2</sup></font></p> </blockquote> <p>Free trade and the culture of reason and individual freedom that produced it rested on bourgeois values slaughtered in the war with those millions.</p> <p>Killed, like they all were, by the rise of nationalism and the (re)growth of the absolute state that made the war necessary, and that the war itself made possible. </p> <p>We have lived in that world ever since. <hr /></p> <p>1.
