I call this groundswell collaborative consumption.

Early last year, the US Department of Defense let it be known that 75,000 troops would be needed to secure Syria s chemical facilities. After the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, it is not surprising that this estimate did not exactly generate a groundswell of public support for military intervention in Syria.

ITHACA With 2012 underway, it is worth reflecting on how a decade of strong economic growth in emerging markets led to last year s resounding political transformations. From the dramatic events in the Middle East, to the groundswell of support for the anti corruption crusader Anna Hazare in India, leaders in emerging markets are getting a clear message from the streets that growth is not everything.

The Vatican II reforms, for example, emerged not from a populist groundswell, but from the preferences of progressive theologians and bishops. This hierarchical approach, in which spectatorship trumps participation among the rank and file, is a major reason for indifference among ordinary Catholics today.

Turkey at one end of the Middle East and Morocco at the other are already well on their way. The real groundswell this time seems to have come from the close timing and positive outcomes of recent elections in Iraq, Palestine, and to a lesser degree in Saudi Arabia.

Today the world is at another turning point. The assumption that nuclear weapons are indispensable to keeping the peace is crumbling. Disarmament is back on the global agenda and not a moment too soon. A groundswell of new international initiatives will soon emerge to move this agenda forward.

I had thought that after so much exposure, thousands of Americans would be holding vigils on Capitol Hill, that religious leaders would be asking God s forgiveness, and that a popular groundswell of revulsion, similar to the nineteenth century anti slavery movement, would emerge. To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln, if torture is not wrong, nothing is wrong.

Enlargement is now more easily politicized in individual member states, and this is especially the case where there is a groundswell of Euro skepticism upon which to draw. The European Council, rather than the European Commission, is increasingly setting the benchmarks for delineating progress in accession talks, thus largely determining the pace at which negotiations proceed.

All this may lead some to wonder why time consuming international negotiations and UN climate summits are needed at all. But the fact is that this groundswell has in large part been catalyzed by the existing targets, timetables, and innovative mechanisms of the UN climate treaties, and not least by the momentum generated around the often criticized 2009 Copenhagen summit.

The Rural Development and Agricultural Market Regulation Act provides for different types of state support interest rate support, training support, apprenticeship training support, support for farm relief services, joint economic activity support for agricultural producers, etc.
