"A Spectre is haunting multinational capitalism--the spectre of free information. All the powers of ``globalism'' have entered into an unholy alliance to exorcize this spectre: Microsoft and Disney, the World Trade Organization, the United States Congress and the European Commission..." Manifesto at http://emoglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/dcm.html Our communist comrades in Kerala forget that SEZs have their origin in Neoliberal ideals and that Smart City is one such - a test doze, or a blueprint - and that they are out to destabilise governments and subvert democracy - citizens deliberately kept in the dark and a debate on the issue avoided. I wonder if Eben is ever aware of this latest move from Government of Kerala. I have my own doubts whether VS has concurred to this proposal after being aware that most international debates are centered around this spectacular neoliberal advancement. Sans all this, Smart City now has turned out to be a dream project of third and fourth estates, which qualifies us to label this group as a 'estate-mafia' - a real 'estate-mafia'.
