The propaganda is becoming bolder. The article is by Joel Kotkin, an adjunct Fellow with the Legatum Institute of London, and the jist of it is that the importance of national borders has become far less significant due to the rise of “tribal ties” based upon race, ethnicity, and religion.

Kotkin/Newsweek provide a world map delineating the suggested new “groupings” of what are now nations. As an example, Denmark, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden are combined into what Kotkin calls “New Hansa”. Canada and the USA become the “North American Alliance”. And so on.

The Legatum Institute is a London-based think tank and is part of the Legatum Group, a private global investment firm headquartered in Dubai. Legatum as a whole promotes globalization and so-called “free trade”. [For poor countries, it's not free and it's not trade; rather, it is extortion. For wealthy countries, it is the transfer of wealth from the middle class to the upper crust.]

The Newsweek article goes into some detail as to why Kotkin’s groupings make sense, but then ends somewhat abruptly. As far as I can tell, the purpose of the piece seems to be the instilling of the idea that the concept of nation-states is on the demise, and that we should consider the more logical proposition of regional groupings. One can hypothesize that, further down the road, other articles will appear in the mainstream Corporate Media reinforcing that idea. We further can hypothesize that sometime later the idea of a world governing body to coordinate “regions” will be proposed. It’s all about the planting of intellectual seeds, making world governance appear to be reasonable.

Kotkin is the author of Tribes, and another book, The Next Hundred Million.
