one heck of a reason to dump the new world order. Small succesful countries, mostly rich, each with it's own distinctive culture, language, history, costume, architechture. All these differences they hang onto passionately and cultivate, and mostly (now) they live in a kind of peace and trade and stay prosperous. Yet they work together when they need to. In the overall scheme of things, this is a very positive step. Saving their languge and culture and respecting each other still for their differences whilst enriching their countries through trade shows real civility, tolerance and higher thinking. The new world order are responsibile for our sameness, working toward world sameness. Culture and difference ought to celebrated as these influences bring alot more compassion to a society. If there is a great leap foward going on right now it would be in Europe.
Take your rose tinted glasses off.. and have a proper look at Europe. http://palissy.humana.univ-nantes.fr/msh/costa15/pdf/nantes/ritakal.pdf
i personally love the idea of the new europe, where we can be as one yet keep our identities, i think its our only way for the uk to survive in the future with the economy, i do not think though europe will get as close as is planned because mainly that some nations such as the UK are trying to enforce US style free trade agreements on Europe instead of going down a more socialist root as nations like France wish to go down, and anyway the conservative people who don't like looking in the long run won't let it go that far anyway, and i beleive we should be optimistic because at least we are trying to improve and come together for whatever reasons, peace and love michael x
