World Federalist Manifesto. Guide to Political Globalization

The World Federalist Manifesto analyses world federalism from an historical perspective and offers original solutions to improve the efficiency of global governance and increase the coordination among international institutions. The author focuses on the political aspects of globalization, examining the application of a confederate political model at the world level while reviewing the historical background of world federalism. The author presents a model of world confederation divided into international legislative, executive, judicial and financial branches. In his view, the world government shall share the authority with Member States, in a way that both are sovereign within their respective sphere of competence. The world confederation should reflect the political and economic balances of world nations. The book presents different means to achieve political globalization: the first, through the unification of the United Nations system by adopting a single budget, a single Assembly and voting system; the second, through the creation of a Trans Atlantic Free Trade Area, merging NAFTA with the European Union. The resulting economic organization would integrate with the military structure of NATO and develop into a North Atlantic Confederation. By attracting developing countries, it would eventually become a Union of Democratic Nations. The World Federalist Manifesto is available on Amazon and on the website www.worldfederalistmanifesto.com
