Hi M,

What are your thoughts about Brexit, M?

I'm trying to get clearer in my mind what dictatorship Gerd (a friend and a smart synthetic biologist Ph.D. based in Berlin - he's in the 2nd video here ... http://scottmacleod.com/papers.htm) was alluding to, when he said the British Brexit vote broke up a European dictatorship. Was this referring somehow to Russia's relationship with Germany, and Schäuble or Steinmeier coming to power after Merkel with Germany at the center of an EU superstate/superpower, and possibly even Putin? Or was this about a dominant German government without a democratic European Union process ? Hope to post further from a smattering of social media posts about Brexit on July 4th re - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/06/tilia-german-capital-votes-to-divest.html (June 27, 2016) ... saw an interesting Der Spiegel article today on Twitter pointing to Germany's concerns about Russia ...

"EU- und Russland-Politik: Schäuble knöpft sich Steinmeier vor
"Es ist genau das geschehen, was viele befürchtet haben": Finanzminister Schäuble kritisiert in ungewohnt scharfer Form seinen Kabinettskollegen Steinmeier. Es geht um den Brexit - und um Russland."
http://www.spiegel.de/politik/deutschland/wolfgang-schaeuble-vs-frank-walter-steinmeier-aerger-um-brexit-russland-a-1101023.html
The last sentence here translates as "It's about Brexit - and about Russia."

In the EU disarray brought on by Brexit, is there a EU democracy opportunity the Brits would engage, and which would benefit the UK economically - and nationhood or identity-wise? (Re my big project, how about a free CC MIT OCW-centric major university (a Harvard/Stanford/ MIT) in each countries' main language that might in part help focus these democratic EU questions further?)

Finished indexing my ~550 page Harbin book a few days ago, I'm glad to say - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html. Now I'm going - bleh- through the index again for further accuracy and excellence. After page 300, quite a number of entries are 2 pages off ... blah ... and many entries have 50 or more page numbers ...

L,
Scott

What is the EU?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union
From this article:
"Despite calls for an exit from the Union immediately,[50] it is unclear if and when this will happen. The implications of the referendum vote remain unknown, with politicians and commentators suggesting various outcomes.[51][52]"


*
Definition of society:
1 the aggregate of people living together in a more or less ordered community: drugs, crime, and other dangers to society.
• the community of people living in a particular country or region and having shared customs, laws, and organizations: the high incidence of violence in American society | modern industrial societies. (Apple dictionary)

*
Is there a parallel here ...
Is ...  society to network society (re Castells) ... like ...
... culture to counterculture {as in freedom-seeking movements of the 1960s/70s} ... (and re information technologies and the internet too)?

I'm curious further about the EU "dictatorship" Gerd was referring too and, further, re

La rebelión de las masas

 
http://www.lavanguardia.com/opinion/20160702/402909509321/la-rebelion-de-las-masas.html

Use the Chrome Browser for a translation from Spanish (and read a version too in Catalan) ...


A vote by the people (of England) against globalization ... how to enfranchise workers/the people?

Castells says here that the English Brexit emerged from Cambridge ... interesting re World University and School in each of all countries' main languages ...

Developing independence and freedom of nation states - and the people in them - in the information age as legal and political connectedness continues to grow in new ways (and between nation states) thanks to the web ...

In what ways will World University and School and a film-realistic, interactive virtual earth for STEM research in all 7,943 languages and with TIME SLIDER further help understand such unfolding developments?

Need to get the World University and School online Law Schools in all ~204 countries up and running to teaching about unfolding international law from each countries' official / main languages ...
