Hello,



More political philosophy about technopopulism..


I have just read the following from Christopher Bickerton a University Lecturer in Politics from University of Cambridge:

"Democratic politics has undergone a profound transformation in recent decades. The structuring logic of political competition is no longer the ideological struggle between left and right. Political actors today compete in their appeals to ‘the people’ and to competence and expertise as supreme political virtues. The substance of contemporary democratic politics is these populist and technocratic claims, giving rise to a political field which we call technopopulism."

Notice that he is saying the following:

"The structuring logic of political competition is no longer the ideological struggle between left and right."


I think he is not right since populism of today is about national "identity" and about the treat of globalization to national sovereignty, and it is pushed by the political right, read my following thoughts to notice it:

More about our identity and about globalization and nationalism..

I have just read the following very interesting webpage:

What’s Wrong with Liberalism?

https://www.historytoday.com/archive/feature/what%E2%80%99s-wrong-liberalism

And he says the following:

"Populism marks a new phase in identity politics for the simple reason
that people fear not only poverty, but also identity deprivation."

and:

"Our gains have been gains in efficiency, transparency and utility; the
gains that Bentham hoped to see by the construction of his Panopticon,
in which a single guard would be able to look straight into every prison
cell. Our losses have been losses in purpose and meaning."


But i think that he is too pessimistic, but i am positive, because we
have to know about the purpose and meaning of life, and we have to know
more about our identity, since i think that we have to seek like a
"balance" between competition and collaboration, and about the meaning
and purpose of life, i am talking about it in my thoughts of my
political philosophy about morality, read it carefully here:

Also here is what i just said about our identity and about globalization
and nationalism:

More political philosophy about globalization and nationalism..

I am a white arab and i think i am more smart, so today i will
talk about a very important subject about Globalization and nationalism,
so i will invite you to look at the following video of Marine Le Pen of
the far-right political party in France:

Marine Le Pen explains why nationalism is important

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNpI9wKnE8Q


As you notice that Marine Le Pen is saying in french that the
fight today is between nationalism and globalization, since
Marine Le Pen says that globalization is a treat to national
identity and is a treat to national sovereignty, but i think that Marine
Le Pen is not understanding correctly globalization, since i think that
nationalism is too much competition and communism and socialism is too
much collaboration , so i think the best way is to seek like a balance
between collaboration and competition and when we look
at globalization you will notice that we are collaborating with others
by for example sharing Open Source softwares or Free softwares or PhD
papers or knowledge on internet etc, and we are also competition by not
collaborating with others, and with this new kind of model we are
noticing that we are not just one identity like being french, but we are
becoming multiple identities because this kind of new model is making a
part of us that collaborate "universal", and this is why i think that
Marine Le Pen is not understanding correctly this new kind of model of
like seeking a balance between competition and collaboration , and i
think that this new model is better because it is more efficient ,
because think this partly collaboration of this new model is good and
more efficient for creativity, innovation, adaptability and speed of
progress, i also think in capitalism the price of internet has gotten
cheap and the price of computers has gotten cheap, so we are able today
to access internet with a low price and benefit from "collaboration" and
also sharing in internet, for example look at me, i have invented many
scalable algorithms and i have decided to share some of them with the
others, and it is of course collaboration , so look for example at my
following inventions of scalable algorithms that i have shared with
others, here they are:

https://sites.google.com/site/scalable68/scalable-reference-counting-with-efficient-support-for-weak-references

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.programming.threads/VaOo1WVACgs

https://sites.google.com/site/scalable68/an-efficient-threadpool-engine-with-priorities-that-scales-very-well

Also i have decided to not share others of my scalable algorithms and it
is competition, so i am seeking like a balance between collaboration and
competition.
