RE GLOBBALIZATION
I FOUND THIS SITE AND QUOTE ON MY NEW PET TERM:
Stalwart blogger Stuart Koehl has sent me a very interesting article by Ralph Peters of The Weekly Standard,arguing that tribes -- old local loyalties and identities -- are returning and will resist the push to the globbalization of all things. I use the technically correct term "globbalization" advisedly; the idea of the globbalizers is that we all dwell on this same glob, and since by the definition of globbularity one portion of a glob is indistinguishable from another, we should likewise be indistinguishable one from another. We should all be citizens of one vast globbal village, which of course will not be a village at all, though it certainly will be globbal. The article can be found here:
