"...he operational history of The Order can only be understood within a framework
of the Hegelian
dialectic process. Quite simply this is the notion that conflict creates history.
From this axiom it follows that controlled conflict can create a predetermined history.
for example:
When the Trilateral Commission discusses "managed conflict", as it does extensively in its
literature, the Commission implies the managed use of conflict for long run predetermined ends -
not for the mere random exercise of manipulative control to solve a problem.
The dialectic takes this Trilateral "managed conflict" process one step
further. In Hegelian terms,
an existing force (the thesis) generates a counterforce (the antithesis). Conflict between the two
forces results in the forming of a synthesis. Then the process starts all over again. Thesis vs.
antithesis results in synthesis. ..."
