Flows of signs on a network Robert Marty First European Congress on Cognitive Science ECCS'95, Saint Malo 1995, April To think with accuracy about collective cognition it is necessary to define with precision the subject of this cognition. This latter is not a totality of separate individual subjects constituted by the unique common reference to an object or several objects of knowledge. The notion of network is not required only to constitute collective individual entities; it is also necessary to form the basis of the individual cognition on which collective cognition is based in its turn. For a rigorous approach to collective cognition, we believe that it is therefore necessary to take social networks into consideration on the one hand and the semiotic fact that is coextensive to each acquisition of knowledge on the other hand. 1 Networks, signs and cognition. 1.1 Networks. 1.2 Signs. It is now advisable to expose briefly and in a more precise manner the triadic conception of the sign that we will implement.

Write it down now, always.

In his recent two-part article on Keynesianism, Mike Macnair argues that (a) Keynesianism is inherently nationalistic, (b) it is internally incoherent, (c) it did not actually work during the post-war boom, (d) the conditions causing the post-war boom are not reproducible, and so (e) Keynesian policies cannot work today. [ 1] He concludes that Marxists should not support Keynesian solutions. Instead, he argues the need for the adoption of a set of minimum demands, and the rebuilding of working class organisations on a European-wide basis. Inflation and wages Mike says Keynes emphasised his agreement with the marginalists on the necessity to reduce real wages. In the depression, prices fell significantly. However, this does not necessarily mean a reduction in real wages. And, if we look at the experience of where Keynes’s ideas were applied during the 1930s - in the US, during the ‘new deal’ - we see something very much like that. Failure?
