global utopia: green and red

Gert Kohler has an interesting new paper on the World-Systems Archive
(http://csf.colorado.edu/wsystems/wsarch.html)  in the Working Papers
subdirectory.
The abstract is as follows:

Global Utopia: Green and Red
ABSTRACT

This is an exercise in utopia design -- global utopia. As any utopia, it
is incomplete but serves the purpose of guiding the imagination. The
article is a package with two parts -- (1) green and (2) red (in the
sense of political colours), both being elements of the same vision
(utopia). Part 1 shows the possibility of a green mode of production
(green as an engine of growth /accumulation). Part 2 shows the
possibility of a red mode of remuneration (world wide wage parity,
global pay equity).
