Remembering J. R. R. Tolkien:
January 3, 1892–September 2, 1973“Philosophically and politically, Tolkien was much closer to the New Right than the New Left. Tolkien was a conservative and a race realist. His preferences ran toward non-constitutional monarchy in the capital and de facto anarchy in the provinces, but he recognized that state control can be minimized only in a society with a deep reverence for tradition and a high regard for individual honor and self-restraint.”

I think the dualistic right-left paradigm has seen its day, there are just too many exceptions to make a rule. The alternative open-closed society paradigm, though hijacked by questionable parties, is at least somehow physics-based. I would like to propose a new model based on the 4 elements: Earth, Air, Fire and Water (though somebody else may have, substituting less traditional terms).

Dana, you hit the nail on its head to say the dualistic, right-left paradigm has seen its day because it is ‘breaking-down’ more and more every day. I await your further thoughts as to a new model based on the 4 elements: Earth, Air, Fire and Water. As always, you are in the Vanguard of the current ‘swim’ of things’, so I will pay close attention to your posts.
