More From Angela Merkel

I mean, you hear the word 'globalization' over and over and over again. globalization, globalization, globalization. rarely has a word gone so directly from obscurity to meaninglessness without any intervening period of coherence.

The conviction: i will not tolerate this age. the freedom: the freedom to act on my conviction. and i will act. no one else has both the conviction and the freedom. many agree with me, have the conviction, but will not act. some act, assassinate, bomb, burn, etc., but they are the crazies. crazy acts by crazy people. but what if one, sober, reasonable, and honorable man should act, and act with perfect sobriety, reason, and honor? then you have the beginning of a new age. we shall start a new order of things.

Globalization has considerably accelerated in recent years following the dizzying expansion of communications and transport and the equally stupefying transnational mergers of capital. we must not confuse globalization with "internationalism" though. we know that the human condition is universal, that we share similar passions, fears, needs and dreams, but this has nothing to do with the "rubbing out" of national borders as a result of unrestricted capital movements. one thing is the free movement of peoples, the other of money.

...as the disparity between the rich and the poor grows, the fight to corner resources is intensifying. to push through their "sweetheart deals," to corporatize the crops we grow, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the dreams we dream, corporate globalization needs an international confederation of loyal, corrupt, authoritarian governments in poorer countries to push through unpopular reforms and quell the mutinies. corporate globalization-or shall we call it by its name?-imperialism-needs a press that pretends to be free. it needs courts that pretend to dispense justice.

Be politically correct, but please don't bother other people with conversation about being politically correct, because that's the end of everything. you want to create boredom? be politically correct in your conversation.

In globalization 1.0, which began around 1492, the world went from size large to size medium. in globalization 2.0, the era that introduced us to multinational companies, it went from size medium to size small. and then around 2000 came globalization 3.0, in which the world went from being small to tiny.
