conflict

Of late, my mind has wandered off and gathered interest in conflicts in the world. 'Human capital' is an oft overused term in the business lexicon. However, the word seems to be in its essence when talking about the trading of absolute power and lives lost as a result of conflict. It is quite a hard tradeoff... an impossible line to draw.

In the meantime, the corners of the world seem somehow closer and more distant at the same time. It feels like all of the world thinks largely in the same way in terms of power, conflict and means of conflict resolution... maybe the numbers change... the number of deaths that keeps the cause worthwhile. Qualitatively, however, there seems to be no difference.
