When I indicated intensive instead of extensive development, I meant to stress that it is the current system which cannot be extended, because of its ecological cost. However, because I believe that this will lead to dynamic relocalization, it will inevitably, and in a more distributed fashion, lead to more overall development, i.e. extensively. In fact here again the feudal system offers a parallel, once it consolidated in the 10th century, it led to a flowering of pan-European civilization for the next 3 centuries. In other words, the intensive development based on local production, led to a new phase of extensive development.
