1) Ultraspecialization is a consequence of overscaled rentist pseudo-monopolies (fueled by the most overscaled and rentist industry: finance). The general trend (P2P origined) is towards multispecialization of the same persons in lower scale industries.

2) If you take a look to Spain, Portugal, Greece or Italy you dont see less solidarity but just the opposite: millions of unemployed and young people who are not covered by state-mony now, are protected by families or live in kind-if-urban-kibbutz were incomes are shared under a very primitive system of social security.

3) Massive movilizations stopped… true. But in decades there were so great, social deliberation. Deliberation is what is needed before movilization in order to address it to concrete objectives and make them affordable (see Iceland)
