Fim do estado nacional

From Nation States To 

Stateless Nations

Many believe that the best strategy for dealing with a globalized world is to globalize the nation-state, or to make it more democratic, but this is a profound mistake. The problems with Feudalism and the British control of the American colonies were not logistical, they were moral. What defines a state above all else is its monopoly on violence, and forced participation in a given geographical area. In a polycentric legal system, participation is by consent, and you may exit at any time, to join another community or to remain neutral, regardless of physical location. A polycentric legal order in which stateless nations compete for adherents would be superior to our current system from a democratic, egalitarian and libertarian standpoint. Instead of different factions and special interests competing for power in a centralized state, via political parties or corporate cronyism, people with different perspectives can exit arrangements with which they disagree and form consensual communities of their own design. When people are allowed to participate directly and build their world, we will soon see which ideas work better in practice and which ideas don’t work.
