I wonder who's advocating the above. Anyway, it's harder to understand than the phraseology I lifted from further down in the article. Uncle Ed 19:04, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Proposals for a New World Governance 

message: I added two tags for argument-style writing.  Perhaps I should have used the "promotional" tags instead.  Whatever, the current format of the sections isn't appropriate for Wikipedia.
* The first section reads like an "arguments in favor" fact sheet.  The Q&A format of "Why do we want global governance?" "Here's why we want global governance!" is not encyclopedic.
* In the other section, the five principles from the Charles Léopold Mayer Foundation should not be presented as facts in an encyclopedia article.  The section might be deleted, or it could discuss the ideas in a neutral format.  It's also in the first person.

replies: text: It's worth noting that the bulk of this long article was added in 2009 by a single account which only contributed here. Many of the sources still in use are poorly cited deadlinks to world-governance.org, and much of the text seems opinionated in tone. It may consequently be necessary, if painful, to drastically cut back on this material and rebuild based on the plethora of better sources available in the library and online.

thread_title:  Writing Style 

message: This sounds like the absence of global governance.  Fix the lead?  MakeBelieveMonster (talk) 01:45, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the idea behind global governance is that "governance" is not synonymous to "government". The proposition is that even without a central rule-enforcing institution, some sort of order may evolve and exist, and the mechanisms which provide are referred to as "governance". "Government" in that sense is just one of several possible ways of achieving "governance". Whether you buy that or not is a different issue, but that is precisely what the discipline of "global governance" is concerned with. SchnitteUK (talk) 11:29, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  New Images needed 

message: This section is without sensible content, and may have been written to mislead. First part:
"Global governance is not world government, and even less democratic globalization. In fact, global governance would not be necessary, were there a world government."
The first sentence is contentious and completely unsourced. The second sentence is a logically absurd attempt at defense (also unsourced): even if true (which would make sense), it does not support the preceding sentence at all. In fact, it supports the exact opposite point the writer wants to make: the reason B is not necessary if A exists is most likely because B and A are in some sense similar or identical.
Second part:
"Domestic governments have monopolies on the use of force—the power of enforcement. Global governance refers to the political interaction that is required to solve problems that affect more than one state or region when there is no power to enforce compliance. "
No, this directly and completely contradicts what we have already been told in the rather more sensible "Definition" section (and is, of course, not sourced either): "Governance however denotes formal political institutions that aim to coordinate and control independent social relations, and that have the ability to enforce, by force, their decisions."
Third part:
"Problems arise, and networks of actors are constructed to deal with them in the absence of an international analogue to a domestic government."
Aside from being vauge, unsourced, quite sinister, and possibly untrue (I suspect "networks of actors" are constructed well before problems arise, as far as possible) this sentence appears to be proposing the creation of international structures analogous to domestic governments. Its actual meaning is the opposite of its ostensible point, which always makes the intentions of a writer suspect. It could be re-written, entirely preserving meaning, "When no world government exists and problems arise, networks of actors are constructed to serve the same purpose."
"This system has been termed disaggregated sovereignty."
Says who? No sources, of course, and the link to "disaggregated sovereignty" leads to a Wikipedia page that has no sources itself, and not even a Talk page. Highly suspect.
Currently, this section's text is misleading, unclear, and is not up to standard. The section should be either:
a) deleted
b) be replaced from scratch with a coherent, sourced comparison of the similarities and differences of world government and world governance
or
c) be replaced with an exploration into why some people are concerned about world governance as a precursor to world government (which I am not qualified to write).
I only came to this article in order to clarify the differences between world governance and world government, in order to defend against conspiracy theorists (see various arguments about Maurice Strong) and if this is the best argument on offer, score one to the conspiracy theorists.

message: A World Government: The Next Step in Human Evolution?
The concept of a world government has been around for centuries, and while there are many challenges to consider, it could represent a significant leap forward in human evolution. Imagine a world where:
Global cooperation: Nations work together to address shared challenges, leading to a more peaceful and stable world.
Focus on humanity: Resources are channeled towards improving the lives of all people, fostering scientific advancement and cultural exchange.
Unified voice: Humanity speaks with one voice on the international stage, promoting peace and diplomacy.
Challenges and Considerations:
Loss of national identity:  Some may fear a loss of cultural identity and traditions. A world government could function as a federal system, allowing for regional autonomy.
Power and representation:  Ensuring fair representation for all nations and preventing the concentration of power would be crucial.
Transition and implementation:  The process of creating and implementing a world government would be complex and require international cooperation.
The concept of a world government is a complex one, but it's worth considering as we face the challenges of the 21st century. By working together, humanity can overcome the limitations of the nation-state system and create a brighter future for all. Savantshreyash (talk) 15:03, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
