<DIV>Dear Colleagues,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I believe the gridlock we are seeing on the national scene here in the
USA is but a manifestation of the fundamental shift that is taking place in
the world's polity system. Some time ago I wrote a talking paper on the
emergence of our new world as we spoke about in the Urban Revolution of
CS-I. But I now thing it is happening much faster than we had ever imagined.
We are rapidly shifting to the primacy of the Regionalis dynamic
(Area-Region-Metro) as the key to the new polity. Here is the link to a book
I just heard talked about on the PBS news hour. </DIV>

<DIV>I haven't ordered the Kindle edition, but I think this is a book worth
reading. Upon reading the reviews you can see it touches a cord with what
people intuit is the new direction for our polity. People identify with
"place" and the national and state levels don't provide that kind of
energy.</DIV>
