In 1904, Sir Halford j. Mackinder sent an article by British Society geography, revolutionizing the thinking classical geopolitics, one obsessed soon of neighbourly relations. In "The Geographical Pivot of History", Sir Halford built under which postulate geopolitics reinvent that science has a bout of planetary totalitatii. British geographer thought that "who controls Eastern Europe, has mastered the Heartland (territory between Ural and Volga and Pamir-Iantzi, n.i.); who controls the Heartland, has mastered the world Island (Eurasia-n.n.); who controls the world Island rules over the entire planet."
Excursion in geopolitics. About inter-State arrangements and States
The emerging mainstream boundaries epistemice in explaining human realities: naturaliter from teleological, they would be improperly matritate of geopolitics in canon deterministic. A locus regit actum, read wrongheaded, that somehow dictated by human action outings and circumstance. Recovered, geopolitics as relevant State preserves; but, inevitably, as the fundamental unit, man. More specifically: institutional politician. In the terminology of Franz Oppenheimer, would be the man of means non-political, non-economic/productive/non-contractual obligations.
If you want the emerging theoretical, it's subset of "State theory". If you want historical, needs to State theory does not degenerate into dogma or amorphous descriptivism. The logic of action state (that auto-organization endowed with a monopoly on the use of force and violence in a given territory; the only organization in the society who do not obtain income through voluntary contributions or payments for services rendered, but by compulsion ´ ¨ coercitie) e maximizatoare. Like any logic of any human actions. Qua States States have a choice between the intensification of exploitation of domestic foreign expansion, or a combination of them. Internal limit e revolution, external limit e world. (When you become liberal and retractable, there is no ontological; enter the logic of societal productive, ziditoare, and is no longer subject to "State theory"; and any of the profile.)
Geopolitics related inclination towards the expansion of States. The relations between them can be conflicting, when expansions collide, or harmonic, when cartelizeaza to operate in a stable location. It's tempting because cartel asymmetries of interstate operation born instabilities. The fact that stabilisation through cartel exploitation e cheaper than ferocious competition, States are grouped in otherwise romantat intergovernmental organizations privitele & forums. For instance, IMF, WTO or EU cartel interventioniste.
And State currency
We can take the following statement of Hans [1]Hoppe as le[2]ma: "the economic interests of the individual, i.e. increasing the income and wealth of its production and Exchange, favoring a universal commodity currencies accepted-gold-and a system of banking activity. The political interests of the individual, i.e. increasing incomes and wealth of its operation-on behalf of the producers and of the contractantilor-leading to the formation of States, the destruction of the gold standard and the monopolisation of money and banking activity ". In other words, the State has discovered the inverse Alchemy! 3 Which are connections between theory and inflation (geo) politics? First of all, that there is no longer much of a chosen product market, but a discretionary State product. In the second, inflation, a phenomenon resulting from currency manipulation by the State by increasing the money supply. It is a refined tool of potlatch, a far more insidious because it's more discreet compared to the unpopular fiscalizare, but also much more poisoned when plugged into a massive discoordonari in productive structu[4]re (crises); her stance has a huge stake. And thirdly, world trade and investment inter-Nations, currency circulation policy can dissemble dijmuirea wealth.
And States the coins
Such a world paper money poses States. States that are in a State of nature, in the competition. Inflatiile different from one country to another are disclosed to the exchange rate of a currency paper in another. Excess inflation seen in the exchange rate, and this revelation can turn human resource and capital towards areas less spoliatoare. Of course, to the anxiety State, thereby losing the "regulatory and tax base" in which he lives. The State is caught between two contrary objectives: wants and inflation which leads the cartel's wealth toward banking clientele aware, but also productive resources without which would redistribute … origami.
Choice between to eliminate competitors through war or fall at peace with it, creating a cartel of inflatiilor coordinates. War can resolve the inconvenience, but it is costly, as image, resources, popular support. On the other hand, the monetary cartel of inflatiilor coordinates (fixed rate) is an unstable product; It creates bad incentives. Each State will be tempted to inflationeze most: come with their currency partners to support his own, buying it in order to support the course, during which he will become the first user of the creation of the space's monetary cartelizat. So first expropriator. But if in a cartel make sure that you have the "dominant position", things change.
Hans Hoppe[5] to uncover the mystery of the present monetary system neromantat, one of the inflatiilor in the pyramid over a pivot currency: [statului dominant plus clientela lui – n.n.]"the Government wi[de aceea]ll be satisfied with that, once its own currency is used as a reserve currency by foreign banks, it becomes possible to engaging in an almost devoid of expropriation costs to property owners and manufacturers[creatia lui monetara ajunge acolo pe post de investitii fiind preschimbata in moneda locului, in lantul inflatiei careia investitorii sunt primi utilizatori – n.n.]. […] State dominated resources in favor of him losing dominance. But, faced with the possibility of losing control of the situation entirely internal, naturally prefer to accept a scheme which not only allows him to remain in power, but even to continue fraudulent expropriation of its own population by inflationarea its currency, and in the same rhythm with the dominant State ´ together customer policy-n.n.] ".
States and currency
What State has become in and after the war, King of the West and the sponsor of the post-war reconstruction? (Bretton Woods, the 1944 Reminder.) What State has succeeded in 1971, when it became clear that no longer can honor its commitment towards the rest of the world monetary (taken in 1944) to redeem paper dollars accumulated (and compliant accomplice on behalf of dezastruosului principle of inflatiilor coordinates) in foreign currency reserves, the conclave of IMF gold, against, say, sec, "Step!"? That's because, on the principle that print nonchalantly someone is bound to the other side of "American Printing House" to buy dollars were embarrassingly many! And what the State has managed to conserve the reserve currency status of the dollar or the world, despite the fiasco among travelers learn the currency in the 1970s? In virtue of the remaining facilities (on our dollar, inflation will build your inflation), unless this is [6]the degenerate system "win-win" for the States.
If monetary competition ensures a minimum of rezonabilitate in terms of providing the most stable currency possible (competition between monopolies remain national monetary!), global monetary unification in standard paper e infinite risky. The idea of the "need" of a single currency has global age of J.M. Keynes bancorului or unitasului lui F.D. Roosevelt. Today to talk about his acmetalul Nursultan Nazarbaev paid, or about a currency, in the global crisis, birdsong and Communist Party, bored to raise in return for work of the Stoic Chinaman reinvented American stationery market depreciata in State reserves. And this all the more hypocritical amid liquidity around, made today by the Federal Reserve go from saving the banking cartel trial. But the philosophy of contemporary monetary and banking should not be refined into what is most fragile in it. But should repudiata without regrets[7]. I quote from the same Hans Hoppe[8]: "a world Government, a Central Bank and a global currency-paper-contrary to the popular impression that represents the universal values and deception-does not mean than niversalization and the intensification of exploitation and destruction, expansionist economic fraud".
So what do Judging geopolitics inflation? Dolosiva's virtuosity that the warring States or cooperative of our world we are preparing. Fariseismul In God We Trust, painted in 1956 on each American dollar, it's defiant; the great contrafacator of the currency, the State puts fraud under the configured through the protection. But even without a blasphemous, announces all the counterfeiters with State act do complicate in a harmony. Their big stake, this education; hierarchies have small cracks and marginal, but important fronde e to shut everybody else, those productive.
In the field of monetary, postulate his Mackinder might sound almost apodictic thus: "he who controls the currency (of) the world controls the inflation of the world; who controls the world economy world inflation controls; who controls the world economy controls the world. I mean on us. " But if the State allowed american hegemony was inflation, which i witnessed, she kept just because of the comparative obscurity behaviors that could ensure "pivot currency" along the last half century and better. It is obvious that, in this new world order of the old G8-20, IMF, UN, stability will not be insured either by reporting to gold, nor free market competition in the production of the coin. It will just be another era of paper, printed with other ink, but with the same texts.
