JAMES ROBERTSON'S NEWSLETTER
No 10, July 2006

My latest newsletter is now out and can be read in full at:
http://www.jamesrobertson.com/newsletter.htm

This email gives a short description of some of its contents.

1. Editorial: Gordon Brown, Britain's Prime Minister-in-waiting,
has a lot of homework to do. As the majority world increasingly
resents the inefficiencies and injustices of the present global
financial system, and as new economic powers like China, India
and oil-rich Russia flex their financial muscles, the effects on
Britain could be serious.

2. A new 12-page paper on Land Value Taxation and how it can
underpin a new political philosophy based on sharing the value of
"common resources" is now available on the website.

3. Did you realise that the board game "Monopoly" should be
promoting the ideas of land value taxation? Find out more about
the purchase undertaking that's been ignored.

4. Derek Wall has written an excellent book about the economics
of the anti-capitalist movement and "how a fairer and a more
ecologically sustainable world can be created". You can read
what I like about the book - and also what my reservations are.

5. Professor Mary Mellor has written an splendid paper about how
it is vital for socialists to have a clear analysis of how and
why money systems operate as they do, and to develop clearly
thought out alternatives. I recommend interested readers to
e-mail her for a copy.

8. I give details of a new website which shows how the European
Union budget contributions of Eurozone member states could be
more than fully financed by the European Central Bank if monetary
reform was implemented in the Eurozone.

9. As peer to peer (P2P) production becomes a new mode of
production, governance, and property, it may affect our political
economy in unprecedented ways. Find out more.
