Technology of Commercial Imperialism or Business
Collectivism?
Dear Lloyd:
Several more thoughts come to mind. First, one can see
parallel developments of socialized corporations in Japan, in which
commercial groups which later became zaibatsu such as Mitsui and Mitsubishi
were already active during Tokugawa times.
Secondly, I'm surprised that you didn't mention the Knights Templar as a
possible antecedent of the East India Company. They were bankers and
financiers and settled in the British Isles following their persecution by
Phillip Augustus in France.
Lloyd Responds: I think the connection
is this....the Knights Templar was basically a continental secret society
with ties to the Middle East dating from the Crusades. No doubt
well connected to the commerical imperialism of Venice. After Philip
looted the Knights (killing the goose the lays the golden eggs?) the
remnants of the Knight fled to Scotland where it transformed itself into
Masonry and was taken-over by the British Crown at the time of the Glorious
Revolution. Can't prove it yet, but I'll bet that the power in the
East India Company were 100% Masons within a few decades of the Glorious
Revolution.
An aside...to often researchers are thrown off by the
difference between English and Continental Masonry. Nonsense! In
England, the King's secret society supports "his"
government. On the continent it seeks to destroy his enemies!....ie,
the Pope and the Most Catholic Monarchs of Spain, France, and
Austria!
----------------------------
And thirdly, the
socializing tendencies of capitalism were quite obvious to Karl Marx, who
saw capitalism as a neccesary step from feudalism to socialism and
ultimately communism. According to Marx, capitalists would be constrained to
merge their enterprises into monopolies which would be under pressure to
squeeze workers still further. Capitalists read Marx and took it to
heart.( They still do; perhaps it takes a capitalist to slog through
all three volumes of Das Kapital). They related to his diagnosis and his
prognosis and took steps to adapt to it.
all the
best
