AW: [governance] so do i owe bill drake a pizza or not?

["Kleinwächter, Wolfgang"]

Dear all
 
it is like X-Mass Time: You know, you will get a present, you have heard some rumours, but you do not know exactly what will be in the box Santa Claus will hand over to you under the Christmas Tree in the Sheraton at the Santa Monica Boulevard in Southern California. For people remaining at the East Cost, they can go to the Hill to get the briefing directly from members of the Congress. And Europeans? As Bertrand has announced - was he, like other Europeans,visited by Fiona and Larry Atlas in the last weeks? - we have to wait until this afternoon - European Time - to see the "Deus Ex Machina", THE "Solution". Only Ken Cukier from the "Economist" got the privilege to get some drops from the new water in advance. My interpretation from the Economist article is that we will have probably indeed an interesting innovative step into a new territory with a decentralized multistakeholder mixture of oversight, accountability mechanisms, review and public forum: A Multiplayer Multilayer Mechanism of Communication, Coordination and Collaboration. This will indeed provoke (and need) a lot of discussion. I would share Bertrands expectation that this will be the start of a new beginning, looking forward, going beyond "traditional G (8, 12, 20, 198) thinking (of the outgoing EU Commissioner) and exploring new ways how to govern  global challenges in the 21st century. The IGC list has a great chance to become as leader in this new round of conceptual discussions. Be prepared to stimulate your brains :-)))

Hi all,

Insider tip : If Milton paying means there is no significant change in the new framework, then Bill should begin searching for his wallet...

Solution this afternoon, european time.

In any case, I'm sure we'll soon have a very interesting discussion on this list regarding what kind of change this means, magnitude, consequences, etc....

The coming months will be interesting. 

Best

B.
