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 tentatively designated as the Federal Union of Democratic Nations. This proposed Federal Union would advance beyond the role of the present day United Nations, but would still operate under some key restraints, such as the right of member nations to withdraw from the Union at their discretion. Author, James Yunker argues that despite these restraints, this Federal Union would not only make an essential contribution to the future security and prosperity of civilization, but 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 effective global government.
