Libya & Logistics...The Next Step
The war appears to have been won for the moment. The Arab Spring has been about a fight for freedom, "Intimate values in the Community", with a massive backing of "Social energy in the Community" and a lot of "Straightforward Action Outdoors"
Next, "Straightforward Energy in the Community" is needed: Logistics. The supply lines & the transport. Western powers, with their turbo-logistics can certainly make this happen, it's the next step. This will conclude with power fights over the control of logistics and will herald the new stage of "Proper energy in the Community". This ought to be achievable though all the evidence shows the campaign is likely to face big challenges at this point (if past results are anything to go by) and may even fail due to a lack of proper strategy.
Finance & Community in the Emerging Markets
Russia, China and other emerging markets appear to be rapidly developing their financial infrastructure. If successful, then this is likely to reflect as Social energy in the Community Space and could flow into becoming Intimate energy in the Community Space, providing a new range of national ambitions. However, to achieve this it will first be necessary to better develop the underpinnings, the "Proper" energy in the Community, e.g. strengthen the rule of law and society's institutions and nurture this Social energy from above, with "Intimate" energy, like freedom for the press and opposition.
Hard times & Community Support for the Essence
Land of the Freedom & Liberty?
The stature is a metaphor for COMMUNITY space and values of the ESSENCE like liberty, and freedom. The Community "grounds" or promotes & supports such values of the essence.
Though when values of a community at large are tainted with financial scandals and corruption it becomes a farce. For now, that farce is largely confined to the community space, but will it spread to the borders of the community space and spill over into the public space (like riots, protests, street obstructions and so on)? The consequence would be that the Community space would become increasingly distant from the values of the essence it seeks to promote. Liberty might becomes more of a luxury than a right.
