Talk:Dollar hegemony

message: I just read the Henry C.K. Liu article... and I think it is straight-out copied.  This article, unfortunately, doesn't appear to be much better.
The first paragraph (save the first sentance) seems to be a direct copy of Liu's article http://www.atimes.com/global-econ/DD11Dj01.html
Compare article...
:History
:The world's current international finance architecture is based on the US dollar as the dominant reserve currency. Ever since 1971, when US president Richard Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard (at $35 per ounce) that had been agreed to at the Bretton Woods Conference at the end of World War II, the dollar has been a global monetary instrument that the United States, and only the United States, can produce by fiat.

Then compare the paragraph that follows.  Looks like a copyright violation to me. Nephron 05:22, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm convinced this is copyright violation.  The second paragraph of the version from 02:32, 29 May 2005 is word-for-word copy of Lui's article, with the exception of the first sentence and deletion of a few sentences in between. Nephron 19:14, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

message: # Liu coined the term, this article should be about how he defines it. So keep out Hudson's ideas, they are already present in the Monetary hegemony article.
# Testiments to who coined which term and when the terms was coined does NOT belong in the article, but here on the talk page. Stop putting such discussion inside the article. A human 01:53, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

message: by arguing about who discovered the phenomenon or how it is labeled you avoid the elephants in every room, and the phenomenon is certainly risen well beyond mid-importance.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.108.229.219 (talk) 23:04, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Neutrality? 

message: user:sparcle_z uploaded this concept map to better understand the concept of dollar hegemony. 
Considering global crisis like recession taking a monsterous shape all over the world user:sparcle_z is trying to  understand with the help of this concept map - How Dollar Hegemony is a contributing factor. Also related topic of  terrorism and current conflicts all around the world. A Wicked problem type of phenomenon in which the resolution is really difficult to arrive. The relation between usa and saudi arabia seems to be purely opportunistic, the 2 country's constitution is totally different with different ideology and religion. Dollar Hegemony seems to be contributing factor fueling terrorism. More thoughts on this is welcome.

replies: text: Unfotunately, as the description on the image says, it is his own creation and thus fails WP:NOR ("No Original Research").  It seems clear to me that it is own analysis of the situation.  [I like mind maps and systems diagrams and find them very useful to explain messy problems - but I can't see how to use it here without falling foul of WP:NOR or WP:SYN or both.  These are very important wikipedia principles that preserve the value of the encylopedia - otherwise it descends into the opinionated chaos of blogspace]. Consequently, I have deleted it from that article itself.  If anyone disagrees with my intepretation of the guidelines, please refer the question to the Wikipedia:Administrators  --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 11:06, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Michael Hudson also has come to the same conclusion as Mr. Liu, in his 1972 book "Super Imperialism The Economic Strategy of American Empire".  The biggest buyers of the book were the US State Department who used it as a how-to instruction manual.  It was denied in public, but privately acknowledged.
