THE EMERGING GLOBAL PLAYER SCENARIO (EGPS)

Is shaped as Conway's Game of Life

(Dennett, 2004)

u With few GP interconnected u By a relatively small amount of links (L) u Where each GP is free to empower and evolve some links and weakening others u But is predetermined in the whole amount of potential link (P) u Where L=(f)P

THE EGPS AS A COMPLEX SYSTEM

The Emerging Global Player Scenario-EGPS

AS A UNITAS MULTIPLEX OF

u Global cosmopolitanism u Science intensive, knowledge-based policy modeling, and procedural decision making u Entrepreneurial self-constructing, wide horizon spirit u Social autonomy structuration to a systemic global level

THE EGPS

The GLOBAL PLAYERS (1) are u The NAFTA GP u The BRICS GP u The TURKISH AREA GP u The EU GP u The UNITED AFRICAN MARKET GP u The CHINESE – JAPANESE AREA GP

THE EGPS

GLOBAL PLAYERS (2) u They are «LEGO» shaped u In a very interconnected way u BRICS and MERCOSUR are both GPs u Brazil belongs to both of them

THE EGPS

GLOBAL PLAYERS (3) In brief…

u Some areas remain outsiders (Bahamas, Singapore, Switzerland, for example) u But are not autarchically closed u They remain independent as they bridge the GPs u Thus, they are CONVERGENCE KNOTS

THE PROCESS VISION ON GLOBAL CHANGE

u MACRO: The EGPS u MESO: Each GP “scanned” u MICRO: National states and their fragments u PSYCHO-SOCIAL: Gemeinschaftliche Lebenswelt (Elias, De Swaan, Goudsblom)

IN THESE EGPS

The WCSA as

A THINK AND DO TANK (TDT) FOR RESEARCH & POLICY IN THE EGPS and on

WCSA 8TH CONFERENCE, EP, ROME - PRESIDENTIAL SPEECH

slide-21
SLIDE 21

THE KEY FEATURES of the TDT (1)

  • 1. Interdisciplinary among the social, political,

legal and economical sciences

  • 2. Policy determines politics

(Lowi, Arenas of power, 2009)

  • 3. Policy is design-based research, not

subjected to political selection

  • 4. Mind Elias - De Swaan’s Process from macro

to psycho-social

WCSA 8TH CONFERENCE, EP, ROME - PRESIDENTIAL SPEECH

slide-22
SLIDE 22

THE KEY FEATURES of the TDT (2)

  • 5. All four steps are required in a correct and

viable systemic complex process design, but not all the four matter in the same way

  • 7. Political decisions = (f) science based

research design is viable

  • 9. Turned upside down is rhetoric

manipulation on masses (back to Canetti?)
