GLOBALIZATION MEANS THAT MILLIONS LOSE LAND AND THAT  SOCIAL TIES AND SACRED BELIEFS ARE SHATTERED.

Buying stuff is all that replaces them, on condition of being among the fortunate who can afford to.   



It speed makes the transformation still more violent. Can one be surprised at a nihilism and turn to strongmen that in Europe, the United States, the Middle East, India (...) is basically the same?

The innumerable ways in which
 pre-capitalist African and French societies
contained that search 
proves its destructiveness.
