"...The free market needs morality to function:<br /><br />"In the journal Science a couple of months ago, the psychologist Joseph Henrich and several of his colleagues reported a cross-cultural study of 15 diverse populations and found that people’s propensities to behave kindly to strangers and to punish unfairness are strongest in large-scale communities with market economies, where such norms are essential to the smooth functioning of trade. Henrich and his colleagues concluded that much of the morality that humans possess is a consequence of the culture in which they are raised, not their innate capacities." from: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/09/magazine/09babies-t.html?pagewanted=3&hpDevin Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08510505316223549589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5320499219200491287.post-41907844562193794332010-03-26T14:14:04.191-04:002010-03-26T14:14:04.191-04:00CUNY radio has posted its coverage of my panel her...CUNY radio has posted its coverage of my panel here: http://www1.cuny.edu/mu/podcasts/2010/03/26/star-wars-google-vs-china/Devin Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08510505316223549589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5320499219200491287.post-63455710879727756342010-03-26T13:49:58.798-04:002010-03-26T13:49:58.798-04:00FPA just posted a video from this event: http://ww...FPA just posted a video from this event: http://www.fpa.org/calendar_url2420/calendar_url_show.htm?doc_id=1197304Devin Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08510505316223549589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5320499219200491287.post-11940808341126481492010-03-24T19:14:59.910-04:002010-03-24T19:14:59.910-04:00Interesting, and it is certainly viewed less "...Interesting, and it is certainly viewed less "politically" in the US. Don't you agree? In fact, much of the earlier US-based commentary seemed to have been speaking against this political stance-- insisting that the US government should not get too involved in this issue --which in the end is just a google-China issue and not one of American policy....<br /><br />Reading your comment I was thinking how it seems since the time of Herodotus this has been viewed in terms of stability versus liberty/freedom tradeoffs...

She agreed with a lot of my points in this blog post, especially that Chinese elite often think about the trade offs between openness and stability in Chinese society. She made a very good point that Chinese social media is not only opening Chinese society up, it is serving as a kind of civil society, policing corruption, scandals, etc.<br /><br />We also talked about Google's move as being "political" as it is often portrayed by the Chinese government. I asked my friend what that meant. Her answer was fascinating: 1. a big US foreign policy goal is to promote freedom (OK, I was with her there); 2. the US government can use US companies as instruments of US foreign policy (I was willing to go along with this idea for the sake of argument); 3. Google pulling out of China is therefore advancing US foreign policy goals... But how? She said that if Google leaves China it can influence other technology companies to follow suit and leave China as well, potentially destroying the Great Fire Wall (Golden Shield) of Internet control. This was a fascinating comment since it seemed to support my feeling that Google does indeed have a lot of influence and can set a standard in global business practices.Devin Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08510505316223549589noreply@blogger.com
