Subverting the dominant paradigm:
development for 'sake of development'
By Gideon Titmarsh

Attendant paradigms of conspicuous consumption (Veblen et al.) enhance heuristically notionally forms of non-ecologically-based legislative endorsements impinging upon the sacred and sub rosa profane mis - calculations, redistributing natural phenomena in ways that mistake and refrain from the enhancemental uses of protected wetlands already described.

Systems
of taxation of non-tenured lands and failure to encumber for
future
public usage of semi-restrictive covenanted zones hallmarks divisional
politics. Contrary to schemata advanced anthropologically and
sociologically, ideals of innovation and its con - commitant
development
of factored lands, bays, utilitarian natural phenomenon risk further
deterioration of incentives designed to reinstitute formidable
pathways, legal and de facto. A closer look at macroeconomic
theory (ibid) allows
redistribution of
variables in the factor analytic sense of simplifying abstruse
and obstructurous itemizations on one level consistent with previous
thought. |
Yet why, it may be insinuated, is the second level redistribution forfended, as it is, by capital incentives as motivation for piling up wealth in a form where it remainders as fallow, retained in what I will rename, to borrow a phrase, an "innocuous desuetude." Thus we see components of money supply rising ten times as fast as available currency. Consumer price index from 1913 to 2006 paralleling total net worth of U.S. households in steep rise indicates a rise in conspicuous consumption and reliance upon acquisition as a means of contending with forces or modernization, rather than a balanced natural and heuristically appropriate trending. Questionable models ignore the hetertoskedasticity of variance in consumption in an economic system where choices to develop or not to develop are broader at higher income levels. Huizinga's analysis of cultural play extenuated into the 1950s never intentionalized peculiar inclusion and infusion of popular culture ranging from infinitesmal comedic exigencies and social death through amusement (Goodman) vide such incipient and peculiar 50s witless gyrations as Cosmo Topper rendering from television (ectoplasmic George and Marion Kerby and piebald Neil) to today's witless, ecdysiastical http://www.gawker.com wherein amusementary wastage mitigates time for social endeavor to our detriment, institutionalization of polyphonic rectitude of "social bling."
Policies entailing variations and exceptions attendant to regulations of taxation and management proclude etiologically-based applications of preservative measures vide disproportionalization in states as Florida wherein, if it may bear illustration, in water resource management unbalanced taxative powers distribute greater operative regulatory insulation to management districts on millage issues as witnessed in Ohio, Tennessee and other states water management issues include taxative disadvantage, e.g., established policies regarding water managment districts: South Florida Water Management District underfunded to manage lands conceded by sugar manufacturing industry, Northwest Florida Water Management District bounded by legislation to one twentieth the taxative millage of other districts as abnormal, punitive economic restraint and to offer rapid questionable developmental interests powerful advantage over public input. We have employed the terminology and we use it once again in this instance of geocentric values flouted by legislation, developers in propriomotu.
A ricochet effect is thereby begged in that these trendings represent a sea change in relationship to basic understandings of place in a natural world, certain as if Darwin saw progressive steps to survive, bring to bear all philosophical and economic forces on questions regarding economic rationale. At a conference from which I harbored some hours of personal time in North Florida, I was struck by the incipient notion that there, after all, lay forces on all sides regarding development as instituted by commercial interests and development merely witnessed as a heuristically appropriate trending.
Herein lies once more, a ricochet effect wherein weak regulation invites debilitation. Dominant paradigms of development should be addressed here, in efforts to persuade that modernization does not necessarily entail development, but a disengagement, a disenthrallment. The trending path of total U.S. wealth and current economic indicators indicate a misguided reliance on money supply and crypto - analytic mistakes by Friedman, Bernanke and even Greenspan who in contumaceous temerity, as I have written elsewhere, suggest the Great Depression became a crisis only when the Federal Reserve declined to buy Government Bonds. To this we reply, poppycock! Reductionist theory is reiterated as enhanced economic theory. Only when designated lands are actually protected from further development and the concommitant necessity to create burgeoning communities with costs to our ultimate relationship with natural phenomena, which should be steady, then will this powder keg of rising prices, joblessness, price of comestibles as well as combustibles (forgive me this conceit) aright a fractious and disappointing, disjointed economic ship that results in negligible social capital.
Thank you.
