Dear Jon,
You asked 15 Dec 2003 17:30:06 -0500:
'Which country does the world NEED the most?'
This question strikes me as comparable to a Tyrannosaurus Rex asking 'Which
dino does the world need the most?' shortly before the famous meteorite
struck the Yucatan peninsula and wiped them off the earth.
They were superseded by (first) mice and (then) men, even though there are
still crocodiles, birds and such that can count dino's among their ancestors
which have a very useful role in ecosystems...
I don't think the social pattern of value 'country' is in the forefront of
social evolution any more. Its existence may even hamper further social
evolution at times.
In my 'economics of want and greed' (see
www.antenna.nl/wim.nusselder/schrijfsels/economics.htm) I sketch a four
stage evolutionary sequence in which countries belong to only the second
stage.
With friendly greetings,
Wim
