- In most societies we would find that people shared Common aspirations, were motivated by very similar issues In short their was considerable degree of communality of interest At a very basic level. Put simply we could define this as the search for security, prosperity and sustainability. At the individual level most people want to live in a safe neighborhood. They want a good job And they want these conditions to be sustained over time indeed often to the next generation. The degree they want these things and the level that the aspiration is satisfied will vary but most people can be motivated by them. In the domestic environment most politicians well understand this and seek to harness these motivations by identifying the common interest to build a constituency of support.
- Nonetheless even in a domestic environment there are two groups who Fall outside the predominant shared interest - The Super Rich whose aspirations may remain but the extent they will be motivated by them has greatly diminished after the acquisition of the 7 or 8 house this is no longer a significant motivator And those who deliberately or by force of circumstance Opt out. Classically we might think of Tramps Or the single mother with six children by 3 different fathers as falling into these groups. Again his group may share the aspiration but have little prospect of attaining it. It is important not to see these groupings a containing value judgments. They are simply observations of how many 21st Century societies are structured. Since much of the aspiration has an economic aspiration it is interesting to note that sociological studies show that the degree of empathy as expressed as a proportion of income people are prepared to donate to charity actually increases as one moves from right to left.
- Increasingly today’s political leaders will demonstrably seek to identify with the shared aspirations of those in the middle “Call me Tony” or the habit of deliberately taking of one’s jacket or tie are an oral or visual signal that say “I am the same as you”. Even if they come from the group on the left hand side (and get much of their funding from this group) they position themselves, as the marketing people would put it, deliberately amongst those in the centre ground.
- We can use the same model and observe similar dynamics at work in International society. Again it is important to avoid confusing this approach with any value judgment. The fact that the international equivalent of the Domestic Super Rich rarely play a leading role in international politics is simply a factual observation. This may change.
