FarUnlitUnknown Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Want to say The Body Electric ... but I'm not sure most people are 'struggling to resist' as many seem content being machine-like automata (and/or watching their children become as such). That being said, can't go wrong with the Big Money or Turn the Page. Cheerio! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love this one musically, but the standard cosmopolitan, self-congratulatory line valorizing the 'citizen of the world' is almost cringe-worthy ... not that we shouldn't respect other cultures of course, but I think abstract global interdependence is far inferior to local communities and the psychic indepedence that can result. Moreover, it's that kind of community that fosters the virtue, humanity, and love for particular persons and places, which makes loving humanity 'in the abstract' (in the truest sense--not just paying lip service to sound wonderful and enlightened at parties) possible in the first place. The lack of such local loyalities and affections is also a big piece of why we in the U.S. aren't really a democracy any more by any stretch.
