Things like the European Union. It's not always pretty but it works.
Perhaps after that it will be planets (if you like Futurama), or religions, philosophies or even brands. :) Who knows.
- mike-cardwell 16y agoThe EU isn't a country though, and it will never be one; different cultures have different values and often don't want to live under the same set of laws. Personally, I think this is a good thing. If you're oppressed under one countries set of laws at least you always have the option of leaving.
- lkozma 16y agoBut he was arguing against countries not against cultures. Borders of countries don't always overlap with linguistic, cultural, other borders.
- exit 16y agothe eu is very much like a single country in some respects. > different cultures have different values and often don't want to live under the same set of laws. different regions of america have different cultures and values, and yet you wouldn't question the status of the us. > If you're oppressed under one countries set of laws at least you always have the option of leaving. actually, no. it is precisely because of this offensive notion of citizenship that people are NOT free to leave the country they find themselves in.
