When Zoellick was US Trade Representive, on Sept. 24, 2001, he compred the anti-corporation globalization movement to the left-socialist ferment at the end of the nineteenth century. During those earlier days, "much like today," Zoellick said, there were "great social movements sparked by globalization, although the participants in the revived Olympics of 1896 ran around a track, instead of in the streets, and hurled objects toward chalk lines, instead of at windows" the way Starbucks-bashers in Seattle did. Zoellick also said there were once foolish "theorists and thinkers [who] called for a stateless society, without government and law, without ownership of property, without the ruling class and their despised ally, the bourgeoisie." This utopian idealism led to the problem - "much like today" - of "anarchists bent on senseless destruction." In the meantime, "crashing debates in the Socialist International" [sic] led the misguided to try to overthrow capitalism
altogether.
