Rethinking World Government

This groundbreaking volume issues a powerful challenge to conventional thinking that a world government would be undesirable as it might develop into global tyranny. Rethinking World Government argues for a limited world government that would make an essential contribution to the future security and prosperity of civilization, and would aid today's economic and cultural globalization. Visionary, yet pragmatic, this book will be of special interest to those who wonder whether effective global governance might require an effective global government.
