The Global Information Society Systems project defined the pilot projects for collective global systems of Europe. Because computer systems and the people who work on them are a function of the administrative state, the people of Europe have no control or authority over them. The same is true of the people of the United States. The people are subjects of the systems. The following is a rough timeline of how it happened – how the west was lost:

The European Council – Europe’s Policy making body.

While the European Council has no legislative power, it is a strategic (and crisis-solving) body that provides the union with general political directions and priorities, and acts as a collective presidency.

The European Commission is the legislative body of Europe.

The Commission remains the sole initiator of legislation. They implement the policies of the European Council.

The European Commission – Portfolios of commission members Note – Martin Bangemann: 1993-94 Member of the European Commission, responsible for industrial affairs and information and telecommunications technologies

The Bangemann Challenge: The Bangemann Challenge

The City of Stockholm challenges cities in the whole world to show their finest information technology projects in the Global Bangemann Challenge. This international IT Award Program started in early 1997 and will end in June 1999.

Information has ALWAYS been valuable.

It should be noted that the United States, Germany and Japan were ahead of the curve in terms of development of some of these systems:

Weaponized Infrastructure
West Germany and Japan: Technology for Cars and Roads
Technology Vision
Paradigm Shift: In 1990, President GHW Bush announced a “new transportation system” – all modes under one roof, adding technology and transferring responsibility for the Interstate Highway System to the states.
