Re: what does the semi-periphery want? (G15 communique)

Gert-

In "Spiral" (SCS) the crucial role of the semiperiphery is that it is more
likely to be the site of (democratic) socialist revolutions, which can
leverage progressive change at the world level.

So the communique from the current heads of state doesn't bear on B&C-D's
scenario.

In regard to the various proposals on the list recently for "global
keynesianism," the problem is that the current Powers That Be won't
implement any such thing.  Some sort of radical change in the power
structure will be necessary before any such plan becomes feasible.  

SCS presents one such scenario.
