RE POLITICAL ENTROPY WEAK LIBERAL LAISSEZ FAIRE AND THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME

There was criticism of the Japanese government today in the NYT, as part of the discussion of the nuclear situation there.


Ironically, politically, one might give similar descriptions for the weak American political system, and for the weak political systems of many other Western, and pseudo-Western, liberal democratic regimes. 


'Entropy' was a term David Kaiser used the other day, for our current political status I am guessing, and I like it perhaps as well as Nevins' 'drift'.


These weak regimes, lead originally by the US into this impasse, have allowed globalizing forces to overtake sovereignty for a long time now, originally in the name of a cold war strategy of laissez faire boom, as a way of containing and deterring the spread of communism.


Those pretexts are long obsolete (really were strategically obsolete when created), and other agendas, of MNCs and developing regimes, have long been in the offing under the economic shade of the 'security umbrella' of that Post WW II ideology.
