The higher purpose of mankind - the world federation of the future

Is the future World Federation a Communitarian federation? It's the only political, social, economic, legal and religious theory that fills the entire bill.

It's the only fully integrated political bureaucracy that is replacing internal legal systems in nations around the world, right now. It's the only all encompassing economic system that claims power over every inch of resources on the planet. It's the only social theory taught at the university level, and the academic curriculum rarely includes criticisms. There is no public debate or voting on community development programs that promote sustainable changes in the U.S. It just is.

Nobody's asking the public whether their government has the power to sign treaties that eliminate individual rights and liberties protected under local, state, and national laws. There is no ongoing public debate over subjecting nations to communitarian supremacy of law. This is astonishing when considering the fact that the Supremacy Clause in the European Union contract is a stated, published Communitarian obligation. It's not astonishing when you consider who controls what the general "masses" see and hear.

Regional governance is built on the Community model. Community, when used by the govt or an NGO, is a codeword for communitarian agencies designed specifically to bypass outdated forms of local governance. Community Development is a program for introducing global communitarian standards, norms and laws. It's called Harmonization of Norms.

So here's the second biggest Q we're not supposed to ask: Does mankind have a higher purpose? Many people hold that it does. Even Friedrich List, who we obviously misunderstood when we wrote the Anti Communitarian Manifesto, included the idea in his 1841 book on national political economy. In the opening chapter, List recommended we not militate against the goal of a future world federation. And, he called it our Common Purpose.

"But this endeavor is legitimate and rational insofar as it furthers the economic development of the nation in question and does not militate against the higher purpose of mankind, -- the world federation of the future." Friedrich List 1841, Selected readings in international trade and tariff problems, edited by Frank William Taussig

As the real and verifiable world trade federation forms, I wonder how much of the emerging "rights" agenda was part of what our economic fathers understood to be part of that glorious world federation they dreamed for us. Our founders are often accused of establishing the U.S. as just another instrument for achieving global domination. There is merit to those accusations.

I don't know if this is the right question to ask, but was it also our founders dream for the Big Idea of an Environmental Ten Commandments? Did the Americans, along with the empires who colonized South America and the ME and Asia and the post Vatican II Catholic Priests all promote the same ultimate future for mankind? Do they now?

It was a sad time for me when I realized how many of the Community Development programs were pouring grant money into tribal coffers across the U.S. Already trained in a life of subsistence living (meaning HUD housing and food stamps), Natives were perfectly prepared tunnels for introducing the idea of Rebuilding Community as a legitimate mission. First the U.S. government reduced the tribes to complete dependents, took away their villages, forbade their religions and languages, and today, because the U.S. "evolved," we are making up for all that.

'Mother Earth' to be given same rights as humans under UN plan,
By Catherine Eade 12th April 2011
Niki's comments in brackets, in red

Bolivia is drawing up a draft UN treaty which would give Mother Earth the same rights as humans, including the right to life, to pure water and clean air.

{UN human rights include safe and affordable housing and social equity. Would this concept give Big Mother the right to sue the sun, the moon, rouge planets and falling meteorites in the future Universal Court?}

The South American country wants the UN to recognize the Earth as a living entity that humans have sought to 'dominate and exploit'.

{Again, with communitarian "rights" come communitarian responsibilities, so does this mean humans can sue Big Mother for unleashing hurricanes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, droughts and other violent acts against humans?}

It aims to establish 11 new rights for nature which include: the right to life and to exist; the right to continue vital cycles and processes free from human alteration; the right to pure water and clean air; the right to balance; the right not to be polluted; and the right to not have cellular structure modified or genetically altered.

{Communitarian "logic" knows no bounds.}

Bolivia's large indigenous population is ruled by Latin America's first indigenous president Evo Morales, who was elected in 2006.

{Bolivia is an openly Communitarian State: http://boliviarising.blogspot.com/2007/06/for-united-plurinational-communitarian.html}

Morales is an outspoken critic in the UN of countries which are not prepared to limit climate change by holding temperatures to a 1C rise.

{Chastisement is called "soft communitarianism", it seeks to shame the accused to comply. The next natural and globally harmonious step is hard communitarianism.}

Bolivia's ambassador to the UN, Pablo Salon, says his country seeks to achieve harmony with nature, and hinted that mining and other companies would come under greater scrutiny.

{Big Mother is watching you.}

This proposed treaty ties in very nicely with the objectives of the communitarian organizations active in my neck of the world. School of the Earth, WISE, the Copper River Watershed Org, the Wellwood Center, the studies of our watersheds and creeks, all adhere to the ideology of the "Salmon Nation" and eliminating all borders between people who live on salmon rivers! And their parent UN Biosphere regional expert NGO, Eco Trust, has it's hand in every pie out here.

What environmental standards are taught to youth trained to become young stewards of the earth? What perfect harmony is prayed for in public schools on Earth Day? What "god" does your child worship in school? Only the "enlightened" ones among us can comprehend it.

I like the wikipedia page called "World Government". It clarifies between the real information as opposed to the wiki page entitled "The New World Order," which is relegated to conspiracy theory. World Government is real, the New World Order is conspiracy theory. haha

Global map showing some supranational unions

"The only union generally recognized as having achieved the
status of a supranational union is the European Union.^[11]

"The most relevant model for the incremental establishment
of a global federation may be the European Union, "

"Ulysses S. Grant commented, "I believe at some future day, the nations of the earth will agree on some sort of congress which will take cognizance of international questions of difficulty and whose decisions will be as binding as the decisions of the Supreme Court are upon us."^{[2]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_government}

U.S. President Harry Truman commented: "We must make the United Nations continue to work, and to be a going concern, to see that difficulties between nations may be settled just as we settle difficulties between States here in the United States. When Kansas and Colorado fall out over the waters in the Arkansas River, they don't go to war over it, they go to the Supreme Court of the United States, and the matter is settled in a just and honorable way. There is not a difficulty in the whole world that cannot be settled in exactly the same way in a world court." -- President Truman's remarks in Omaha, Nebraska on June 5, 1948, at the dedication of the War Memorial ^{[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_government}

A quick google search for the keywords World Federation of the Future shows many interesting results. There are think tanks:

The World Futures Studies Federation emerged from the ideas and pioneering work of such persons as Igor Bestuzhev-Lada (Russia), Bertrand de Jouvenel (France, 1903-1987), Johan Galtung (Norway), Robert Jungk (Austria 1913-1994), John McHale (UK/USA, 1922-1978) and others who in the 1960s conceived of the concept of futures studies at the global level. This resulted in the organization of the first International Futures Research Conference in Oslo, Norway, in September 1967, for which Mankind 2000 was responsible in cooperation with the International Peace Research Institute, Oslo, and the Institut für Zukunftsfragen. A Continuing Committee was created, with headquarters in Paris.http://www.wfsf.org/

There are regular conferences:

WELCOME TO TAMPERE IN JUNE 2011!

The 13th International Conference organized by Finland Futures Research Centre and Finland Futures Academy at University of Turku will deal with the different dimensions of a sustainable future.

Sustainable development is an important theme in local, regional and global scales and requires multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral cooperation. Environmentally, socially and economically sustainable development can only be achieved by encouraging knowledge sharing and cooperation between various sectors and decision makers. The decision made today shapes our future.

The methods of futures studies include tools for describing possible, probable and desirable variations of the present and drafting possible images of the future. By looking at the variety of different possibilities, we can come closer to shaping the future – rather than predicting it. Future studies offer valuable tools to understand and shape the development of our societies. This conference aims to bring together the best experts from the fields of Futures Studies and Sustainable Development and let the scientific community to interact with policymakers and representatives of companies. By developing images of alternative futures, the goal of the conference is to give new viewpoints and novel ideas to decision-makers to assist them towards more feasible decisions and a sustainable development. http://conference2011.wordpress.com/

And there's more than one religious angle:

‘Work for your life as though you will live forever, and work for the Hereafter as though you will die tomorrow.’ The Holy Prophet (S)

"On the blessed occasion of the Wiladat of Sayyida Fatima (SA), The World Federation of KSIMC is pleased to announce the re-launch of the MULLA ASGHAR FOUNDATION FUND. This gift programme has been named after Marhum Mulla Asgharali M.M. Jaffer as a tribute to his dream which was to see the success of this fund benefitting the vision and mission of The World Federation of KSIMC." http://www.world-federation.org/Secretariat/Articles/Mulla_Asghar_Foundation_Fund_planning_our_future_as_community.htm

It is our non credentialed ACL thesis that communitarianism is the ultimate, final synthesis in the Hegelian dialectic. Another perfectly valid theory has arisen that communitarianism is just another phase, and that Transcendence, as taught by the Master Illuminated ones, is the final objective. (See Bobby Garner's treatment of this subject).

Whatever it ends up being, the final synthesis is supposed to be so "perfect" it will give rise to no opposition. The ACL was used by us to prove communitarianism is not perfect, and the fact that we even objected to it meant their whole dialectically based "conclusion" was flawed. It also, by default, made our work another side in a dialectical argument. Has humanity advanced to the next stage of forced evolution? If we are indeed moving into the next dialectical stage of human social evolution, then it's time to reassess the ACL "mission.' One thing is certain. The Communitarian stage of evolution is here, now. So if there is a next stage, Transcendence is next.

Over a decade has passed since I began attempting to think outside the dialectic. I know there are still parts of me that cling to dialectical tricks, and it's hard to feel very smart when some of them have been right in front of your "critical gaze" for a long time. I've learned so much more about the plan for global governance over the years. I really should do a complete revision and update of the Manifesto, maybe even add a political or social agenda of our own to the mix!
