Excerpt from David Bollier:
"At the moment, transformation is essentially blocked because any serious agenda for change must genuflect before a series of sacrosanct dogmas – that law is exclusively a function of the State; that markets and corporations are the primary engines of value creation and human progress; that governments generally impede innovation and efficiency; that the private accumulation of capital must not be constrained; and that ordinary people have few constructive roles to play in the political economy except as consumers and voters.
These structural premises limit the scope of what is perceived as possible, and they are backed by powerful economic and political interests, Big Oil and Big Coal perhaps most prominent among them."
