One point: define your terms, especially a term like technocracy that that can have multiple meanings and interpretations and does not have a well-established meaning. This is even more relevant in today's world where we are constantly reinventing the definition of words. If racism, a widely used word has multiple, contradictory definitions then a word like "technocracy" will have different definitions according to different political sub-groups.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
“...The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities...”
I see no divergences of definitions regarding technocracy, tbh.
Using the template as above - it's essentially a calorie controlled, central authority planned, that decides for the individual.
(I'll be doing a post about the origins of the 'ideology', soon..)
Cheers!
Oh. I get that. But a "technocracy" can be looked at as control by bankers (globalists) and one-world government for the purpose of enriching a few. It can also be looked as a meritocracy whose goal is to improve the live of all and "save the planet".
It could also be looked at through different "lenses".
Is the technocracy a nefarious cabal of bankers and unelected elites trying to rule the world and manipulating everyone? Is the technocracy a meritocracy? Or is it the "feeling" that we should have scientists and bankers and other experts do more than simply advise elected representatives? That they themselves make the decisions on the economy, etc...
If it's the later then how is this different than Marxism? The Marxist argument, after all, is that experts would establish a proper framework and the society would grow and prosper from there.
ok......lets say...'technocracy is the furthest expression of an oligarchical structure that's gone woefully extreme..(due to the tech).
