hello christopher, craig in glasgow -- emanuel amitav- washington dc region - ezra boston - vincent dhaka-global

does everyone know of each other?
 in glasgow chris and craig keep adam smith alive in youth and scholars networks

in dc whenever i meet emanuel or amitav (american university except for 6 weeks a year schwarzman scholars tsinghua),  I regain a little bit of optimistic common sense

ezra in boston with peter drucker and my dad reported asian rising suns from japan 1962 on - a good thing for sustainability as about two thirds of people are asian

vincent was born to a taiwan fishing family - unites at least 5 university networks including being mentored by the yelens while he was at berkeley, mit, yale, being mentored by number 3  at peking university when he helped build shenzen-HK university- now starting his second year of building  sir fazle abed's legacy BRAC uni (brac is also the worlds largest ngo partnership)

Here are a few wicked concepts for celebrating 2020 which i wanted to bounce off you

could our thinktanks and student union clubs and embryonic new economics journal edited by adam smith scholars partly in remembrance of my father start in glasgow a small fringe series of meetings around cop26 -they could be called 260th year review of smith and watt (one way to look at sir fazle abed teenage life is he did a 200th year review which he then spent 1960s taking to royal dutch shell becoming the corporation's ceo in east pakistan before 50 years to bangladesh and asian women villagers) my father reported 1977 the rise of rural keynesianism on china that caused a row in us congress 1978 - the poorest villager asian sustainability economies have always been connected since that time


i am wondering if an adam smith app can be launched as glasgow U's way of uniting three of their exponentially most impactful alumni subnetworks

perhaps more naughtily i am thinking 2020 may be the last chance we who accidentally host thinktanks etc in the english language could do this review

Can  the cop26 economy become adam smith's 7th and most humanly joyful wonder
previous economies- not all names are agreed

pound economy - special interest 1% of world's people -out of a northern island they branded as longitude zero

 dollar economy - a continent wide but not tall economy representing 5% of people - and the peak of consumption industrial revolution 1


THREE  economies that emerged from 1950s due to engineering leaps as well as need to go post colonial uniting 200 nations as places where next child could be born to thrive

 the von neumann  economy which we study as a worldwide economy- but wherever it was coded in english east and west coast usa got a decade or in moores law terms a G ahead until subprime mess that bridged 3G and 4G decades


 the deming engineering and infrastructure economy which became the freedom of asians - the majority of the worlds people- though it was hubbed mainly out of japan since 1950 in the hope of reconciling trust after its bad empire bevaviors

 the satellite/space economy - this because race between russia and us governments and later how telecoms was regulated - unfortunately for the big get bigger and the need to know get more secretive


 in the 1970s womens rural keynesianism economy emerged out of the continents of south and east asia


-these are just concepts- i have no funds or movements other than my fathers archives which as far as i understand continued 50 years of smiths-inspired economic reporting a relay started by james wilson, walter bagehot during the first 100 years of The Economist 1843-1943 - fortunately The Economist did do a centenary autobio of the first 100 years - has anyone read it?

PS i think the following brots could be key connectors if there are wider trade implications between the 5 nations of the 2 islands that occupy longitude zero - gordon brown, tom hunter, david alexander , lord stern, prince charles via lord sainsbury daughter sarah butler-sloss:  david attenborough:  mark malloch-brown:  anatole kaletsky: george soros  romano prodi
