Perhaps interesting, and relevant: “The Anglosphere Challenge”, by James C. Bennett
Review posted by Mark Frazier on Amazon: “A profound work, October 16, 2004”:
“For more than two decades, Jim Bennett has been one of the country’s most acute thinkers on the frontiers of technology and cultural/political trends. The Anglosphere Challenge shows the strengths of civil society responses to growing state incapacities and failures. Emerging “networked commonwealths”, he foresees, will advance universal values of freedom while accelerating innovation across new realms of human endeavor. This book is a storehouse of wisdom and hope for not only for those in the Anglosphere, but for people of all heritages and backgrounds seeking to live in an open world.”
What a remarkable find. For the first time in eighty-seven years, I believe I have come close to understanding the glory, breadth, and depth of the œuvre of Sir Edward Elgar. Thank you indeed, Vitaliy for bringing this to our attention.
