    Great! George has provided a good orientation to developing an agenda for discussion. I wonder if there are lurkers out there who could echo his ideas, or offer contrasting views? I hope we can develop a list of at least 3 issues which the list members find interesting to discuss for the next few weeks.

      I think that contending ideologies are very much alive. They have shifted to the area of interaction between social, economic, and environmental issues. Although the market system is becoming prevalent in the world today, there are significant differences in the way various countries are approaching these issues. A good example is the difference between the USA and Europe on Kyoto.
      Issues such as equity and fairness have migrated from income concerns to a much wider arena, that of the physical environment - the management of resources. Shifts in the valuation of the environment in industrialised countries are having an effect on how developing countries plan to use their natural resources, opening development paths which could be more equitable in socio-economic and environmental ways (eco-tourism, fair trade etc.).
      In a more global economy, development decisions are interlinked, and this time it will take a change in ideology and lifestyles in the North and the South to reach a liveable future for all...Global warming sets the pace, as there is no longer any time for 'us and them'.

        The question of "development" was interesting when there were two contending ideologies in the world: Market capitalism, and centralized communism. With the seeming demise of communism, what are the issues to be discussed? The debate, even in China, is to what extent accept the rule of the market. Cuba is the only believer left. Could anyone shed some light on the issues of development today?

          Hand raised -- waving wildly for attention -- Me too, Me too!!

          Please unsubscribe me. I think the original idea behind this list was
          commendable, but a list is only as valuable as the subscribers make it. No
          one seems to be interested in using this list to discuss development. The
          vast majority of messages pleading to unsubscribe are distributed to
          everyone. So, I guess I will add my request to those.

          However, I do wish to commend the list originator for a valiant effort to
          help "develop development". Thank you.
