Yes indeed.<br>
<br>
I have been baffled for some time about how to introduce these
concerns and what has been learned, however as you say this is
'tough stuff'.<br>
<br>
Maybe some kind of face to face inquiry node on these topics
alongside the list would be valuable. And if we are both in London
(and anyone else, I am also based in Brussels) we could perhaps see
if that idea had legs. I'll send my contact details off-line.<br>

A last thought that might nourish anyone looking in, or draw acute
scepticism! Few people seem in touch with the long term research of
the psychohistorians. A key element of their study of the evolution
of childhood and its relation to political realities suggests that
the possible politics to some degree tracks changes in child,
especially infant, child care. ie that political relationships
elvolve in the direction of mirroring how power is experienced via
childcare. It could be that the extent to which men are much more
involved in childcare and that it seems increasingly more
child-centered, might result in a contradiction of patriarchal
politics. This has been my personal or local experience. Your
thoughts?<br>
