The following words have been excerpted from CCPA Monitor, Vol. 5, No. 8, "The new deadly face of war is economic globalization" by Dr. Ursala Franklin, Professor Emeritus, Massey College, University of Toronto.

. . .

The new battlefields are "the markets", ...

. . .

The new markets are the stock and currency markets, the faceless markets of electronic transmissions. The responses of these markets have become significant indicators of the supposed well-being of people and nations. How the stock and money markets react to elections and referenda appears to be much more meaningful to governments than the so-called will of the people.

It is, of course, not new that wars are being fought for access to resources, for the enhancement of trade and commerce. What is new, in terms of the transmutation of war itself, is that the battlefields are no longer territorial. There is no physical ground involved that may be "ours" or "theirs".

. . .

But who and where, you may ask, is the Enemy?

In the war of global competition, the Enemy is people: all the people who look at community, at work, at nature, and at other human beings as sources of meaning and interaction - not as commodities.

Whatever cannot be bought or sold, whatever cannot be expressed in terms of money and gain/loss transactions stands in the way of "the market". It is Enemy territory, and as such must be occupied, transformed and conquered. Work will be done by machines or devices, not by people. People - the Enemy - will be laid off, put aside like dirty dishes, sent away somewhere else - the economic version of ethnic cleansing.
