Psychoeconomics: globalization, markets, crisis - стр. 31

Therefore, in the conditions of globalization, of uniformity of economic laws, norms, rules of foreign trade (and this uniformity is oriented toward the laws and norms of the leading economic country of the world), in conditions of open markets, the unified psychotype of the elite, the economically active population, begins to form. And it now is formed around the world financial elite. And the more the economic success of the country is tied to the international division of labor and foreign trade, the more intensively this process flows.

Here they are now buying expensive cars, yachts, mansions not only in old-fashioned capitalist countries, but also in a country consistently moving along the socialist path – China. Of course, for now in China this is only allowed for certain individuals as opposed to the entire population. But these individuals are emulated not by thousands or even millions, but rather by a billion people.

But the question of which psychotype the elite is closer to remains fundamental: to the psychotype of the world elite or to the psychotype of one’s own nation? The people may simply renounce those that do not appreciate their culture. The people may make a stand against these events, if their interests are affected. Finally, a revolution against the dominance of their elites may begin…

And if copying the psychotype of the elite of the leading country (group of countries) doesn’t make sense or is uninformed, then it will also be so over time. For we know that eventually the elite of the third generation, the elite with hysteroid traits, comes into power. This has also happened in the leading country of the world. If we follow its culture, differentiation in the society will increase, the rich will get richer, while the poor will become poorer… Such social systems are swept away from the historical arena by an angered populace. It has always been this way.

So what will the elite of different countries do when they understand or simply sense the growing protest of people: be transformed more under the influence of its nation or under the influence of the elite of the leading country of the world? Or think with their heads?

High-profile decision making (and this is underscored by the data in the chart) leads to the formation of a unified psychotype in the elite of various countries, but with time also to a unified ideology of the elite. A unified ideology and even its rudiments reassure the elite, since it creates the sensation (but sometimes merely the illusion) that everything is going in the same direction. For people with an external reference this is one of the most important arguments that everything is going right. And this sensation is in line with the feeling that the right decision has been made (but sometimes it merely substitutes a feeling of confidence in tomorrow). Countries that for now are not affected by this process, such as Iran or North Korea, provoke an ambiguous attitude toward themselves by the “global community.” These are also defensive reactions. The elite of various countries close ranks by introducing uniform rules of the game. And whoever does not subscribe to the accepted values is more or less thrown out of this environment.
