In the author''s opinion, the increasing risk of human extinction that is directly associated with the relentless proliferation of nuclear weapons would appear to preclude any viable alternative considerations. Taylor argues that world federalization will achieve permanent peace as well as a new and higher standard of well-being for most of the people in the world. Toward World Sovereignty provides a dispassionate presentation of all of the components on both sides of the debate over world sovereignty. To the greatest possible extent, the book attempts to trace an outline of the most realistic and likely course for the initial establishment and continuing development of the world democratic federal government.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 Introduction Chapter 2 The Antecedents of World Sovereignty: The Ascendance of the Law of Reason in Human Evolution; The Ascendance and Globalization of Scientific Technology; The Ascendance of Love and Utilitarianism in Ethics; The Ascendance of Democracy in Politics and Chapter 3 The Idea of World Sovereignty: The Argument for World Sovereignty; The Argument Against World Sovereignty; A Summation of the Arguments Chapter 4 On Establishing World Sovereignty: On the Conception and Creation of a World Democratic Federal Government; On the Separation of Politics and Religion; The Problem of Counteralliances; The Problem of Secession Chapter 5 On Fulfilling World Sovereignty: On the Superiority and Ascendance of the World Democratic Federal Government; On the Moral Translation of Law from Dogmatic Proclamation to Rational Expression; National Democratization and the Decline of Oligarchy;  Chapter 6 Conclusion","brand":"Rlpg\/Galleys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037771497815,"sku":"9780761824459","price":49.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780761824459.jpg?v=1750937235","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/toward-world-sovereignty-9780761824459","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
