Cheremnykh to environmentalism and the ideology of the Western elite. “The anti-system destroys civilizations. "tomorrow". what is Chinese "environmentalism" connected with?

Legislative bodies of several regions of the country supported the appeal of the Arkhangelsk Regional Assembly of Deputies to the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation to inspect the activities of Greenpeace for compliance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Expert of the Institute of Dynamic Conservatism Konstantin Cheremnykh and writer Dmitry Peretolchin talk about the role of Greenpeace in the politics of global elites.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN. Konstantin Anatolyevich, the Green parties have a very strong political influence on the world establishment. Why is this happening?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. When our reader or listener perceives the word "Greenpeace", he is told that this is an environmental organization. But any English text will say that it is "environmental organization" ("environment" - environment).

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.What is the difference?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. The fact that ecology is a science, and environmentalism or environmentalism is a worldview, philosophy, ideology. These are as different things as scientific research and propaganda.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.Then we need to talk about the tenets of this ideology.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Every ideology has its own history. If we are talking about environmentalism, then in the 20th century there were several key events that played a role in its formation. The first of these is the emergence of the "New Age" movement at the turn of 1950/1960, the second is the report of the Club of Rome "Limits to Growth", and the third is the emergence and approval at the UN level of the theory of global warming.

How does it work in politics? In 2014, a climate summit, usually taking place separately, was timed to coincide with the regular annual session of the UN General Assembly, after which the next EU summit was convened, and at this summit the "Program 20-20-20" was approved, which means the percentage of reduction in atmospheric emissions.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.In fact, this idea influences the regulation of the industry...

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Ideas first influence the thinking of the elite. I'll give you a specific example. Ever since the 1940s. For some reason, John Rockefeller II begins to be more interested in the topic of national parks than in the topic of the oil industry in which he works. And then, one by one, the members of the Rockefeller family begin to lose interest in the industry in which they made their capital, and get carried away with a topic that is not yet called "limits to growth", but simply population, that is, the topic that Thomas Malthus dealt with. As a result, the dogma is affirmed that the traditional energy resources, which are necessary in order to support the entire population of the Earth, are only a hundred years old.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.This happened in the Club of Rome?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, in The Limits to Growth report in 1972. But this was not yet the completion of the whole structure. The construction was completed when the theory of global warming arose. Why is it important? The fact is that environmentalism as a philosophy appeals to many currents: religious, philosophical, sectarian. The common features of these currents are that man is equated with animals. If we talk about religious trends, then we are talking about the relocation of the soul of a person into the soul of a tree or a frog, etc. But the fact that a person and his life should be taken care of no more than the fate of a frog or, God forbid, cannot be crushed mosquito, is not yet the final stage of the philosophy of environmentalism. And the final stage comes when it is argued that it is carbon dioxide created by man, and not by anyone, that is the source of that terrible disaster that destroys the Earth and all living beings on it. Man is equated with the source of sin before nature. A person should no longer control nature, he should only repent, beat his forehead against the wall permanently for the fact that he generally changes something in nature.

From that moment on, this philosophy becomes a religion, but in comparison with the Abrahamic religions turned upside down: what is a value there, here becomes an anti-value.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.An anti-system?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, and this complete ideology is beginning to be applied in geopolitics.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.And what are the tools, specific organizations?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. First, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) by Julian Huxley emerged in the UK. Then the World Wildlife Fund, then the well-known Greenpeace and many other organizations. You can call them NGOs, which involve millions of people in different countries of the world, and they represent a very impressive force in terms of the number of volunteers employed there. This is important because volunteers work for an idea, for free, and it's convenient. This exists within the framework of any ideology, but when all this is directed against human development, it is clear what the end result should be.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.Is it ultimately aimed at controlling the economy?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. It depends on the political situation. For example, for the United States, if they want to reindustrialize, it is not profitable to apply this philosophy in their own country now.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.But it is beneficial to apply in Europe to kill a competitor.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, but I would start not with Europe, but with China, with which the United States has been working for a long time in this regard. The events in China that led to the Tiananmen Square uprising in 1989 were not only that the Chinese Communist Party was criticized for stagnation or some kind of repression. A very important element was the campaign against the construction of the Three Gorges Hydroelectric Power Plant. A best-selling book called "Yangtze, Yangtze" was published, and this campaign was much more powerful and louder than, for example, the campaign against the turning of the rivers in the Soviet Union. Another thing is that the Chinese party leadership turned out to have a greater sense of self-preservation than the Soviet leadership.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.You said that first they infect the elite with ideas...

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, and if there had been no Gorbachev as General Secretary, then there would have been no second phase of perestroika, including the closure of the projects of the Rostov NPP, Petrozavodsk NPP, etc. And most importantly, let's see where Gorbachev went after?

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN."World Earth Charter"?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, the Earth Charter. He is considered one of its authors, although in fact Maurice Strong, the Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations, played a big role there. And the structure that was presented to Gorbachev? It still exists and is called very solemnly: "State of the World Forum". For understanding: "State of the Union address" is the annual address of the President of the United States to the Americans. And then - "World Forum". That is, Mikhail Sergeevich, when he was offered to head such an organization, in his own mind, he felt like a person more important in the world than George W. Bush. But this is already a matter of personal manipulation, and in the end he did not get the role he had hoped for.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.Of course. But who still came up with the philosophy of environmentalism?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. If we open the word "environmentalism" in the English-language Wikipedia, we will immediately see the name of Thomas Malthus, who wrote economic works and made the very conclusion that the Club of Rome later returned to with the help of the Rockefeller family.

In the same list, we will find sources from various philosophies, primarily Jainism. This religion was included in the nine major religions of the world by the husband of the British Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip, a great supporter of this philosophy.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.Who wants to be born in the next life as a deadly virus! Notice, not a tree or a frog.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes. Jainism is professed by 0.4% of the population of India, and although India is a populous country, it is not so much for India and for the world to enroll it in the defining, leading religions. Another stronghold of environmentalism is Ismailism, a sect that separated from Shia Islam.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.But for us, the environmental movement is personified primarily by the Greenpeace organization.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, this is how it is perceived in our country, since this organization operated in our country and caused more scandals than other structures. But Greenpeace is one of many mass structures in the environmentalist movement. Calling this organization ecological is wrong, because, as we said, ecology is a science. We cannot say that there is, for example, any zoological movement.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.But the declared position of "Greenpeace" is the protection of nature.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. The declared position of Greenpeace has changed throughout its existence. Let's remember how they started in 1969, when this name did not yet exist. And they started with a very noble and then approved by the Soviet side of the struggle against nuclear tests. Then, suddenly, this topic was replaced by the topic of protecting whales, which held out for a long time, and then this structure joined many others in the common struggle against nuclear energy and traditional, hydrocarbon energy.

And it is no coincidence that Patrick Moore, one of the founders of Greenpeace, who later left it, said: "When I joined this organization, I thought that it was for the people, and then I realized that it was against the people."

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.This is a very layered statement.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. This is the realization of the real mission that these organizations carry, and with them the most diverse organizations of a different kind, which may call themselves human rights or fighting for the freedom of religions or some territories.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.Is there any reason to believe that they are literally against people?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Let's reason. From the fact that in 1972 in a report to the Club of Rome it was said that in a hundred years the reserves of resources will be depleted - you can dance in different directions. We should give the floor to scientists, specialists, not philosophers. Let them figure it out, look for it, prove that resources are really running out. If this is so on our planet, let's explore other planets, outer space. But instead, it is proposed to build nothing, mine nothing, drive less cars and, ultimately, breathe less.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.One of the British politicians offered to hang counters on people ...

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, David Miliband, who served as UK Environment Minister before becoming Foreign Secretary.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.What is the role of Greenpeace in this international movement?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. In 2009, Gumi Naidoo, a man of South African origin and a former anti-apartheid fighter, became the executive director, that is, the main figure of Greenpeace. He had never dealt with whales or oil companies before. But this human rights activist was invited, and he headed Greenpeace. In addition, he also organizes the Global Appeal for Climate Action. We are talking about the notorious climate catastrophe, which is the completion of the philosophy of environmentalism. This catastrophe is blamed on a person who pollutes nature. It doesn't matter that there are volcanoes that emit carbon dioxide, there are animals that emit carbon dioxide. They are not to blame! The only person to blame!

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.And this is the final question...

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, this is the final statement of the question: man is evil. This is what Patrick Moore understood.

If we talk about the global trend, then environmentalism or environmentalism is only one of the elements of the policy of global structures. Let's take the same Kumi Naida. Where else do we find this name? We find him on the advisory board of Transparency International.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.An organization that allegedly fights corruption?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, and this is a targeted fight. This is a kind of campaigning when a dossier is compiled on certain individuals, etc. This explains, for example, the fact that the attack on the Gazprom Prirazlomnaya platform was not exhausted by the attack itself. At the same time, publications appeared in the Western press stating that Gazprom allegedly acquired the foundation of this platform in a not entirely legal way, which means that there is probably corruption here. A dossier is being collected on Gazprom employees, etc.

If we look at what other characters are sitting next to Kumi Naidu in this council, we will see Tawakul Karman - the "star" of the "Arab Spring" in the state of Yemen. She belongs to the Islah party, which is part of the Muslim Brotherhood. This movement is not honored for a variety of reasons, not only in Egypt, but also in our country and in many other countries. The radical part of the "Muslim Brotherhood" merges with very dangerous structures in the Sinai Peninsula.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.Is it possible to say to some extent that the same forces are behind Greenpeace as behind the Muslim Brotherhood?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. The main question is why in the same structure there are people who deal with the dossier, people who deal with the protection of nature, and people who deal with public excitement, which leads to massacres and civil war - for example, in Yemen, where it goes with since the Arab Spring started there? Tavakul Karman is the main person who should be responsible for this! And she is sitting safely next to Mr. Naidu, and they are coordinating something! Seated there is Jessica Tuchman-Matthews of the Carnegie International Endowment for Peace. What kind of world do they want to build with such coordination? Here is the question that seems to me the most fundamental.

On the same advisory board is the director of Crown Agents, a company that has existed in Britain since 1833. This is the British equivalent of the American USAID. Only in 1997 "Crown Agents" became formally non-state, but did not change its name, "Agents of the Crown". It is curious that several years ago Yatsenyuk agreed with them that this structure would take over the Ukrainian customs.

And if we look at which funds are sponsoring all this, even more questions may arise. For example, "Aga Khan foundation". The Aga Khans, the kings of the non-existent Ismaili kingdom, have a rather peculiar reputation even in terms of how they behave with their own co-religionists.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.They even took part in the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Yes, both in the collapse of the USSR and in the creation of a favorable environment for drug operations in the countries adjacent to Afghanistan.

There is a whole bunch of structures that assign themselves certain titles of global organizations. For example, the Global Commission on Drug Policy, which loudly declared itself during the "Arab Spring". Its composition almost completely coincides with "The Elders" ("Elders") - a group of veterans of politics, former presidents, etc. That is, the drug lobby and the human rights lobby intersect in an amazing way in faces.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.But Greenpeace still doesn't intersect with drugs, does it?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. Greenpeace itself is not, but the same group The Elders was founded in South Africa, and I think that Kumi Naidu must be familiar with these characters. From South Africa there is also the International Council on Transit Justice, which deals with property issues, including cultural property, in those countries where the "overthrow of dictators" is taking place, for example, the Museum in Iraq.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN. Today, in this regard, many questions arise about Iraq, and about Libya, and about Tunisia, and about Egypt… Is it possible for Greenpeace to have a connection with intelligence agencies?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. If a public structure that emerged on the initiative from below, like Greenpeace, eventually enters the establishment, then groups of people appear who are engaged in contacts with various political and intelligence structures. Moreover, such instruments as Greenpeace or Transparency International are very convenient because there is lively enthusiasm and volunteering. There are many people who collect information (which may be intelligence material) for free, from the heart. It's very economical.

Dmitry PERETOLCHIN.That is, Greenpeace is an organization that is not entirely engaged in environmental protection?

Konstantin Cheremnykh. At a minimum, she participates in the same campaigns that human rights organizations are simultaneously engaged in, rousing public sentiment in the country in which they operate. Greenpeace is a very convenient tool, so it will continue to be in demand.

From the editor.

Under the circumstances, Greenpeace is changing tactics. Now its activists are trying to get into state programs under the "roof" of Russian environmental organizations, for example, under the auspices of the ASI - the Agency for Strategic Initiatives under the President of the Russian Federation. These programs allow them to conduct seminars and trainings for Russian teachers, environmental education workers of nature reserves and national parks, and even participate in the creation of school textbooks and video lessons, while crushing the traditional aspirations of Russians and other peoples of Russia to harmony with nature under their environmentalism and human rights advocacy.

INTRODUCTION

THE SECOND PILLAR OF GLOBALIZATION

Why environmental prejudices are in demand

By the end of the first decade of the 21st century, humanity is facing startling paradoxes. On the one hand, the progress of science opens up new horizons both at the macro and micro levels. Modern aerospace technologies allow not only to overcome the Earth's gravity, but also to explore new worlds. In turn, electron microscopy allowed biology to reach the level of intervention in the genome of a living being. The human mind has come close to solving the main problems that limit the development of civilization. Combining the achievements of the sciences that study mega- and microprocesses makes it possible in principle to begin solving such previously unthinkable tasks as preventing genetic anomalies, moving genetic material in space with subsequent resynthesis, colonizing other planets and going beyond the solar system.

On the other hand, the elementary problem of poverty has not been resolved on planet Earth. Moreover, this problem has only been exacerbated with the reign of the world order called globalization. The failure of the modern design of the financial system, revealed by an unprecedented crisis, would seem to be a stimulus for liberation from the shackles that limit the development of the human race. However, on the way to this liberation, ideological structures created in the middle of the 20th century are piled up, simultaneously with the separation of the financial system from the physical value equivalent...

At the same time, the attention of civilization is painfully drawn to the topic of energy sufficiency. The contrived nature of this fixation was already evident to scientists in the 1950s. Moreover, researchers from the countries of the new economy - China, India, Iran, Brazil - remain committed to overcoming their countries' dependence on fuel (non-renewable) energy resources through the development of the most efficient sources - water and nuclear energy, however, former industrial, and now predominantly service economies of the "first world" hinder these initiatives under purely irrational pretexts. Instead, the use of renewable sources is being imposed in a deliberately costly, inefficient form that does not bring dynamics to the overall technological progress, but rather reproduces archaic methods, except perhaps with the use of certain new materials (including rare earth metals, the dependence on imports of which creates a greater vulnerability for the country than dependence on oil and gas).

The justification for such a distortion of scientific and technological development is the desire to avoid disturbing the "natural balance", moreover, interference in the affairs of primitive nature. As a result, technologies that are directly designed to provide a reliable barrier between human and natural activity are not being developed. Thus, European airlines are helpless in the face of a cold snap or a volcanic eruption, despite the presence of cold-resistant materials and protective filters.

This distortion of development, which creates new risks for the population of the entire globe, is a direct consequence of the distortion of the picture of the world (at the level of knowledge) and the intensification of a chilling fear of the future (at the level of emotional perception). Helplessness in front of natural processes is instilled in millions of people, and at the same time, a sense of collective guilt for influencing these processes. The symbol of this man-made vicious circle is the hypothesis of "global warming" widely disseminated through the media, school and college textbooks, tons of popular literature, allegedly threatening some regions with deadly drought, and others with the same fatal flood.

A series of articles created on the basis of reports at seminars at the Institute of Dynamic Conservatism, dedicated to the history of environmentalism and its adherents, the secret springs of its use to manipulate the consciousness of the masses and elites.

Why environmental prejudices are in demand

By the end of the first decade of the 21st century, humanity is facing startling paradoxes. On the one hand, the progress of science opens up new horizons both at the macro and micro levels. Modern aerospace technologies allow not only to overcome the Earth's gravity, but also to explore new worlds. In turn, electron microscopy allowed biology to reach the level of intervention in the genome of a living being. The human mind has come close to solving the main problems that limit the development of civilization. Combining the achievements of the sciences that study mega- and microprocesses makes it possible in principle to begin solving such previously unthinkable tasks as preventing genetic anomalies, moving genetic material in space with subsequent resynthesis, colonizing other planets and going beyond the solar system.

On the other hand, the elementary problem of poverty has not been resolved on planet Earth. Moreover, this problem has only been exacerbated with the reign of the world order called globalization. The failure of the modern design of the financial system, revealed by an unprecedented crisis, would seem to be a stimulus for liberation from the shackles that limit the development of the human race. However, on the way to this liberation, ideological structures created in the middle of the 20th century are piled up, simultaneously with the separation of the financial system from the physical value equivalent.

The Western liberal ideology, most concentratedly expressed in F. Fukuyama's book "The End of History", is forced to reconsider its positions: in fact, it has been refuted by the very practice of globalization, and the methods of overcoming the crisis, which are resorted to by governments and international credit institutions, essentially reject the dogma of " the magic hand of the market”, allegedly guaranteeing equality of opportunity for citizens and states.

The fact that liberal theory is undergoing a crisis analogous to the crisis of communism has been said more than once. But globalization has another powerful ideological reserve. National governments, which need to make strategic decisions about the choice of the path of further development, will be able to subdue the appetites of corporations, change customs and currency rules, but to break into an era of new progress, you need to believe in progress. But most of the world's governments for more than forty years have been regularly signing that industrial growth is undesirable, harmful, dangerous for humans. And what's more, it takes on commitments with growth-limiting targets. Today it is called the Kyoto Protocol, tomorrow it will be called differently, but the refrain is the same: humanity cannot move in large steps, it must mince back and forth in small steps so as not to upset a certain “balance” with the forces of nature, so as not to inadvertently overstep the “limits growth" - otherwise something terrible will happen.

The artificial barrier extends not only to actions, but also to cognition. Space research and the study of man's reserve capabilities are relegated to the background. The tasks of molecular genetics are reduced to applied agronomy, at best - to the synthesis of means of treating individual pathologies (AIDS), nanotechnology - to the creation of materials for technology that facilitates communication, but does not develop knowledge, nuclear physics - to experiments on the collision of particles, but not to extract energy from fusion.

At the same time, the attention of civilization is painfully drawn to the topic of energy sufficiency. The contrived nature of this fixation was already evident to scientists in the 1950s. Moreover, researchers from the countries of the new economy - China, India, Iran, Brazil - remain committed to overcoming their countries' dependence on fuel (non-renewable) energy resources through the development of the most efficient sources - water and nuclear energy, however, former industrial, and now predominantly service economies of the "first world" hinder these initiatives under purely irrational pretexts. Instead, the use of renewable sources is being imposed in a deliberately costly, inefficient form that does not bring dynamics to the overall technological progress, but rather reproduces archaic methods, except perhaps with the use of certain new materials (including rare earth metals, the dependence on imports of which creates a greater vulnerability for the country than dependence on oil and gas).

The justification for such a distortion of scientific and technological development is the desire to avoid disturbing the "natural balance", moreover, interference in the affairs of primitive nature. As a result, technologies that are directly designed to provide a reliable barrier between human and natural activity are not being developed. Thus, European airlines are helpless in the face of a cold snap or a volcanic eruption, despite the presence of cold-resistant materials and protective filters.

This distortion of development, which creates new risks for the population of the entire globe, is a direct consequence of the distortion of the picture of the world (at the level of knowledge) and the intensification of a chilling fear of the future (at the level of emotional perception). Helplessness in front of natural processes is instilled in millions of people, and at the same time, a sense of collective guilt for influencing these processes. The symbol of this man-made vicious circle is the hypothesis of "global warming" widely disseminated through the media, school and college textbooks, tons of popular literature, allegedly threatening some regions with deadly drought, and others with the same fatal flood.

I. Predispositions of mass psychology.

1) The dogma of global warming and related axiomatics are spreading in Western society with degraded religious meanings (according to G.K. Chesterton, superstitions spread most widely where religious faith is weak) and with hypertrophied egocentrism. Fears for one's health, according to sociological data, dominate the hierarchy of values ​​of the population of Western European countries. The ideological "seeds" that fall on this soil become catalysts for a mass "health hypochondria" (a term in psychiatry applied to sluggish schizophrenics who try to compensate for the perceived defect in the energy potential created by the disease with intense physical exercise). At the same time, in a situation of real, and not fictional, environmental danger, obsessions (cycles of ritual, ritual-like actions, such as picking up garbage to the last crumb) are joined by mass fears, reaching panic with a massive sense of helplessness.

2) Ideas about the collective guilt of man before nature are easily assimilated by both believers of different faiths and atheists brought up in the left (anti-capitalist, anti-oligarchic) ​​system of coordinates. The cult of "saving nature", especially in forms specifically addressed to the "smaller brothers", exploits not only consumer, but also complex, higher values ​​inherent only in man - self-restraint, self-sacrifice (in the name of gorillas, dolphins, whales, washed ashore and etc.), and because of this, they cover the active young generation not prone to hypochondria, distracting them from other subjects of service. A young man treated in this way exudes pity for an insect, but is indifferent to his own similar creature: after all, a person is “by definition” guilty, and therefore unworthy of such care as a monkey, dolphin or rat - although all these creatures also emit “dangerous” into the atmosphere carbon dioxide.

II. Predispositions of the politically active layer.

3) In the broad masses of the European population, the power of man over nature and, consequently, its “defilement” for decades was associated with the “brutal” practices of communism or Nazism, and advanced dual-use technologies, especially nuclear ones, with the Cold War. This gives rise to a specific phenomenon of Western European prejudice to the industrial gigantism of large powers in general and to nuclear technologies in particular - a prejudice that grows, among other things, from the "inferiority complex" of a small country in front of a big power; small space, where there is "nowhere to hide" and nowhere to get resources, in front of "unfairly" great freedom of internal maneuver. This symptom of an inferiority complex is more characteristic of the predominant older generation of politically indifferent European inhabitants. Any development project conceived by a major power is interpreted as an aggressive intent; attempts by a new member of the European family (Poland, Bulgaria, Lithuania) to preserve the method of energy production mastered during the USSR or the hated "Komekon" (CMEA) is interpreted as a "rudiment of communism." At the same time, no real alternatives are offered to these new members.

4) Representatives of the middle level of the political establishment of Western countries, who are generally aware of the manipulative nature of the above concept, consider the “green ideology” as the lesser of evils compared to other ideologies that easily cover large masses of the population. This circumstance serves as an excuse in cases where "green" dogmas obviously, objectively impede the development of a profitable productive economy. Let production be curtailed or forced into outsourcing, but the population with brainwashed "green theory" will be more predictable; let young people be carried away by butterflies, and not by the real leaden abominations of life: it’s calmer that way.

5) Separate elements of the "green doctrine" do not contradict the transformed (degraded) social democratic concept, which facilitates the political blocking and conquest of electoral groups in the political process, including at the pan-European level. In the complex interaction of the "old" and "new" European countries, the "green" language turns out to be the most universal language of both political "recognition" and influence, and environmental arguments are a fairly effective means of preventing "red" and "brown" overlaps among poor neighbors.

In addition, the spread of the theory of "global warming" in the countries of the "second" and "third" worlds creates a toolkit for interaction between the "old small" and "new small" countries against the "big old" and "big new" powers - in particular, in the format "EU-Latin America", as well as a convenient political cover for the shadow economy, whose laws preserve the stereotype of metropolises and colonies. The growing role of shadow markets in ensuring the stability of the European currency creates additional incentives to reinforce this stereotype.

III. Predispositions of the global elite.

1. It is more convenient to divide and rule if the system of values ​​and motivation of the population is distracted from the real, screaming problems of civilization. It is most convenient to prevent the emergence of self-sufficient state systems in the world that challenge the holders of the levers of global governance, not through reason (“rational psychotherapy”), but through mass superstitions and prejudices.

2. It is more convenient to manage secessionist (separatist) movements that undermine the power of potential rivals on the basis of standard ideological tools than to come up with new protest motivations each time. A surrogate of identity raised to the shield by such movements is potentially safer than a concept built on pure ethnic nationalism, or even more so on a traditional confession that is infringed in a sensitive region by the regime of a potential rival (target country). Knownly economically untenable neo-states, or preferably unrecognized states, built in this way are easier to “exploit” in the future, including by saving on the maintenance of tribal leaders.

3. The production and distribution of a highly liquid product, clouding the consciousness and immobilizing statistically significant masses of the active population, including their own "industrial" countries, is more conveniently carried out in conditions where the mass consciousness is distracted from physical production. A global civilization, the elements of which are indifferent to each other, is more easily stratified into idle consumer classes and layers of impoverished producers. In turn, it is convenient to confront the claims of countries with “dopey” specialization (Latin America, Central Asia) with the interests of post-industrial “substratum countries”, especially if the motives of reindustrialization and/or protection of the domestic market mature in their public circles.

4. In the period of the inevitable breakdown of the system of social relations of speculative capitalism and the transition to a more perfect form of non-economic domination, where the apparatus of formal democracy will become a mere decoration, it is convenient and expedient to fill the agenda of world civilization with imaginary priorities of supposedly universal significance.

5. The establishment of countries with economies in transition, disadvantaged by lagging behind in the post-industrial consumer economy, is easier to manipulate if its hopes for modernization are “fertilized” with the idea of ​​energy conservation in the name of the natural balance: it is possible to guarantee both the creation of an additional market for a post-industrial product and the waste of budgetary funds of these countries on obviously ineffective technologies, and at the same time cultivate a sense of inferiority among their national elites, and, accordingly, psychological dependence on the “advanced community” that is “at the technological forefront”, and hence political dependence on the “leading countries” - the United States, Israel, Japan, Great Britain, Denmark, with a corresponding influence on foreign policy. As a result, the target country turns out to be internally split into a population that has “advanced” benefits available and inaccessible, and on the world stage it is opposed to both the “new economies” and, moreover, the “third world”.
