Geopolitika
Region: USA
The interview (transcript below)
from questions with Prof. John McMurtry was conducted
for the 15th Anniversary of “Geopolitika” a journal of
geopolitical and cultural analysis in Belgrade which was broadcast on Radio
Belgrade by the weekly show “Silen” on February 12 from questions posed by Biljana
Đorović.
The depth of the abyss into which the
world is falling is ever clearer to people, but not the cause or the way out.
Could you give us some kind of structure to explain what is at the heart of
this empire of chaos that is reigning across the world?
In a nutshell, social evolution itself has
been reversed by a US-led war on social and ecological life organisation driven
by one corrupt master value – to free transnational corporations and their
shareholders from social responsibility to multiply private fortunes without limit.
It is a counter-revolution against the long development of democratic
government and the welfare state that once crossed across the divisions of the
Cold War.
The ultimate driver of the disorder can be
explained in one underlying principle. The sole and absolute organising
principle of the world’s reproduction and growth is turning private money into
maximally more money for private money controllers. The ‘empire of
chaos’ is the result.
