We have to offer devolved differences of governance to differing constituencies. e.g. "Polycentric law" This includes economic forms of governance. A party federalism, rather than a territorial federalism, where one's political ideology affects them rather than just their geographic location's alternate jurisdiction, from the same overall state government as one is registered to it (as a 'citizen'). This is the only way to progress on this socialist versus capitalist issue. Under such a system Capitalists work in a framework of meritocracy, and Communists work within a infrastructure of mutualism; side by side together: to shift from one to another would be like a process of national naturalization; but within the same nation-state. Polycentric federalism.

Brilliant! the truth is you only have to look back at how Germany was rebuilt after the last war ! That was not a perfect example but demonstrates what concerted action on behalf of governments can achieve, conversely what Markets destroy.

What an amazing animation and such a direct medium for making sense of nonsense and grees. Well done David Harvey

I was just wondering why the last 25 seconds are silent for me on this clip. Anyone else experience that? Great explanations! Awesome!

What a nimwitted hocus pocus farce. Hopefully any thinking and historically aware person will see through this unsubstantiated tour de force! It annoys me that college courses waste time on such nonsense. Any university that allows such a breach of standard academic principles to preach as unchallenged truth -worse call to action - such idiotic interpretations of ANOTHER DISCIPLINE'S stock and trade is not worthy of academic accreditation.
