Economist was 'great warrior of peace' and sworn enemy of Third
World debt
A consultant to three levels of Canadian government, he put out
financial fires for the United Nations and the World Bank, and
went all over 'a world that is obscenely unequal, unfair and
immoral'
By Ron CSILLAG,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S11
Toronto -- 'Greed is good," cooed the go-for-the-jugular capitalist
Gordon Gekko in the 1987 movie Wall Street. Just three years
later, a more sobering motto was sounded by Morris
MILLER, who
was a bit better grounded in the real world: "Anxiety can be
good for you."
We have nothing to fear but lack of fear itself, Mr.
MILLER wrote
in Peace Magazine in 1990, and self-deceiving illusions can be
dangerous. "When surgery is needed, Aspirin is no cure," he warned.
"We are living an illusion and must act to counter the global
malaise that now afflicts us."
Long before U2 singer Bono's crusade, Mr.
MILLER recognized that
malaise as foreign debt, which was crushing not only developing
nations' treasuries, but their hope.
That the rich are getting richer and the poor poorer was hardly
news, but Mr.
MILLER, ever the economist, cited depressing evidence.
The average income in the developing world was a little less
than $400 (U.S.) per capita, he found at one point. In the industrialized
world, it was about $24,000, a ratio of 1 to 60. Two decades
earlier, the ratio had been 1 to 30. "It has doubled in one generation!"
An even more revealing comparison was between the world's richest
fifth and the world's poorest fifth: The ratio was 1 to 140.
And one out of five people earns less than $1 per day.
He minced no words: "We have a world that is obscenely unequal,
unfair and immoral. We live in a period when poverty is not only
tolerated, but is exacerbated." Part of the rationale for the
tolerance is a sense of futility: Poverty, he said, is thought
to be too wide and deep to be seriously alleviated, let alone
eradicated.
The global condition is "deplorable and getting worse." Between
a third and half of humankind is not getting enough to eat or
clothe itself, "or live in pride, hope, or human dignity. In
fact, their conditions are worsening… Not since the conquistadors
plundered Latin America has the world experienced a [financial]
flow in the direction we see today."
It was a depressing scenario to be sure, but Mr.
MILLER believed
there was a way out. Industrialized countries had to do more
and needed to regroup in a way that the United States, Japan
and Western Europe would work together to re-establish some degree
of global financial stability. In other words, co-operation.
Put another way, he felt that the days of American economic dominance
had to end, to be replaced by a new type of international management
that takes into account the economic slippage of the U.S. and
the stronger position of its two main capitalist rivals.
As for already poor countries which must service ballooning foreign
debts, "they are cannibalizing their economy to survive at a
level that can hardly be called living. Is it any surprise that
these nations are tinderboxes, ready to explode into rioting
and civil breakdown?"
An economist and development expert who worked for three levels
of government - provincial, federal and international - Mr.
MILLER
was known by his family as a "great warrior of peace."
The son of immigrant Jewish parents, he grew up in Montreal.
His mother had come from Poland, while his father, Louis
MAZUR,
was from Ukraine. He was raised not in the storied St. Urbain
Street neighbourhood, but in more uptown Outremont, graduating
from Strathcona Academy and going on to study first political
science and then commerce at McGill University.
He then headed to the London School of Economics, where he befriended
another Outremont intellectual, Pierre Trudeau. The two bummed
around Europe one summer, and they remained Friends for the rest
of Mr. Trudeau's life.
Following completion of a master's degree in 1949, Mr.
MILLER
travelled the world, witnessing wrenching poverty and inequality.
Back in Montreal, he wrote a play, The Flame Within, that was
staged at the Canadian Drama Festival.
Following PhD studies at Harvard University, where he completed
everything but his dissertation, he began teaching economics
at McGill. One of his students was future Star Trek star William
Shatner. Family lore has it that one day, Mr. Shatner informed
his professor that he would not be making a future for himself
in finance, to which Mr.
MILLER said something like, "Maybe that's
a good thing."
Mr. MILLER teamed up with Mr. Trudeau again in the early 1950s
to attend an economic conference in Moscow, where Mr.
MILLER
was extended a very rare invitation to visit China. Can my friend
Pierre come too? he asked. No, he was informed, Mr. Trudeau was
not invited. Mr.
MILLER went anyway as part of a Western delegation
that helped Mao Zedong celebrate the anniversary of the revolution
that had brought him to power in 1949.
Only decades later did Mr.
MILLER discover why Mr. Trudeau had
been unwelcome in China. In Moscow, Mr.
MILLER had worn a tweed
jacket, and Mr. Trudeau his customary sandals and shirt. The
Chinese wanted only respectably attired Westerners.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, however, did not take kindly
to Mr. MILLER's travels in the communist world, and they pressured
McGill to relieve him of his teaching post. So in the mid-1950s,
he and his new wife headed to Regina, where he took a job as
director of research and planning at Saskatchewan's natural resources
ministry.
In Ottawa for two years, Mr.
MILLER helped guide a federal conference
called Resources for Tomorrow, which examined policies related
to economic development and the environment at two levels of
government.
After a brief stint as an economist with the United Nations in
New York, he spent four hectic but fruitful ears in Rome working
for the Food and Agriculture Organization, a United Nations agency.
He travelled throughout Africa and Asia, developing self-aid
programs on water, food, infrastructure, health, education and
the plight of women.
Continuing with the United Nations years later, he worked for
the agency's Resources Development Group and was deputy secretary-general
of a conference in Nairobi on new and renewable energy resources.
He tangled with the Saudis and Americans on the rising cost of
propane, which millions of poor had to use to cook their food.
Where did his passion for economic justice come from? "He must
have been born with those views," offered Claire, his wife of
55 years. "The big thing for him wasn't so much the politics
as the human being involved. His attitude was that we need to
help people not exploit people, and it was very clear for him
that there were choices to be made."
In 1968, Mr.
MILLER went to Washington to work for the World
Bank, which kindled his later view that the bank and its sister
organization, the International Monetary Fund, were still operating
on the outdated rules of the 1944 Bretton Woods Agreement, which
put the U.S. dollar at the centre of the global financial system.
To him, that made no sense, but he felt the United States couldn't
admit that its influence had waned, nor could it cede any more
of its power.
Back in Ottawa in 1975, he worked for the Treasury Board and
the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, and directed a
task force on federalism for the Privy Council.
But the World Bank again beckoned, and he returned from 1981 to
1984 as an executive director representing Canada, Ireland and
10 Caribbean countries. The experience provided fodder for his
1986 book, Coping is Not Enough, described in The Globe's Report
on Business as "a cry of frustration at the way the International
Monetary Fund and the World Bank are short-changed by the United
States, which is responsible for about a fifth of their finances
but has been the biggest brake on the agencies' expansion."
Mr. MILLER warned that urgent work needed to be done to avert
a major crisis in the world economy. For one thing, since its
initial payment to the World Bank of $635-million in 1947, Washington
had contributed only $479-million more, an amount "that is less
than the misplaced or stolen weaponry the Pentagon reports each
year, or less than the cost of one destroyer." The price of oil
was also a factor in global economic instability: "Both in 1973 and
1978, Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries pushed
on the accelerator," Mr.
MILLER wrote. "The United States in
1979 slammed on the brakes and the rest of the world, like unbuckled
passengers, went through the windshield."
He did not let Canada off the hook, accusing it of a sycophantic
approach when it came to Third World debt reduction: "There's
always pressure to placate the Americans," he stated. "I don't
think the Canadian government gave a damn when it supported structural
adjustment. They just wanted to support the U.S., who only wanted
to help the banks get their debts serviced."
As for asking international bankers to exercise social responsibility,
"you might as well ask cats to bark. Banks are not in the business
of providing charity."
Between 1986 and 1995, Mr.
MILLER led or took part in some 20 overseas
missions for United Nations agencies, the World Bank and the
governments of Canada, Poland and Mexico to examine fiscal and
development issues and the alleviation of poverty.
He spent the final 20 or so years of his life as a consultant
on development issues and a professor at the University of Ottawa.
He found a haven at his cottage in the Laurentians, where he
loved to fish with his grandchildren. To the best of his family's
knowledge, he never caught anything.
With current economic arrangements unsustainable, the key question
for Mr. MILLER was whether new policies to redirect capital to
help poor countries would be adopted voluntarily or whether circumstances
will force changes. Under that second option, he warned, "we
will reap the whirlwind."
Morris MILLER was born on June 15, 1924, in Montreal. He died
of cancer in Ottawa on February 17, 2008. He was 83. He leaves
his wife, Claire, his children Riel, Shereen and Leona, and eight
grandchildren.
