it's the globalist ideology, the thinking in the 90s was that globalisation works to the advantage of the us, which is why this was promoted. that a growing global market makes the us richer. of course, it completely ignores the geopolitical element of economic power, and it thinks balance of power doesn't matter. only capitalists think like this. mercantilists, nationalists, or military people would never allow this. and of course, universities have been turned into businesses, because that's how neoliberalism works on an ideological level. it doesn't consider the social function of an institution. it's just an institution, surviving in a competitive marketplace. hitler's "second book" is a great read to understand how domestic society and institutions work as an arm of the state to compete on an international level. countries like china understand its teachings well.
