It's interesting how precisely you've articulated this transactional turn in global politcs. The 'geopolitics of the spreadsheet' is such an insightful and unfortunately accurate observation. Truly resonates.
Thank you so much — that really means a lot. I’ve been studying, teaching, and field-testing this “turn” in the world-system for quite some time now, and your note tells me the framing is landing where it needs to.
Over the past several years (decades, actually :-) I’ve been developing a broader theoretical architecture I call the General Theory of Compound Security — essentially an attempt to map how interconnected political, economic, informational, and civic systems behave under pressure.
The rise of transactional geopolitics is one of the clearer symptoms of that shift, so I’m grateful the language resonated with you.
Truly appreciate you taking a moment to share the feedback. And thanks for being a "traveler" with Compound Security, Unlocked!
