The World: A Nation Only!

'One World: One Nation'
The above statement is quixotic and high-headed (Agreeably like an assured hoax). However, all its impracticality has been ushered in by the current situation of the world. Nations and individuals who have been politically primed by divisive and nationalistic politicians tend to forget the purpose for the creation of the country - administration, protection and cultural identification.

Our world is too divided to appreciate the benefits of an earth-wide union. While previous attempts at this have been made by the global community (in puncto League of Nations, United Nations), these attempts have been substantially mellowed by the incompetence of nations. Today, the idea has vast support across borders under different monikers - World government, One World Government, One Nation etc. 

The entire intricacy and operation of this colossal power can be read in books such as The Idea of World Government, Political Globalization, Global Democracy etc. However, OneWorld shall restrain itself to briefly summarizing the idea. The government would essentially subdue the powers of the subordinate nation-states. While the daily administration of regions would be under the nation-states, the essential portfolio powers (defence, finance and home ministries) would be under the jurisdiction of the world government. Essentially, a democratic system has been developed to disallow the dominance of any culture or community above others. 

How? According to the preferential theory, there are two major systems to follow - World Democracy or World Communism. The latter advocates against this flaw by promoting a government which is ruled by the proletariat, which has no nationality (As of accordance to The Communist Manifesto). To add on, it states that Marxist communism is only fulfilled with the union of all nations. It reaches its true potential (So the Internationale says) when such conditions are achieved.

The former system dictates for a semi-proportional semi-electoral democracy. In this case, proportional representation is advocated for at a higher-level council. This form prevents the dominance or subordination of smaller ethnic cultures, nationalities etc. 

The most prominent advantages are noticeable at first glance - non-nuclear proliferation, no war, financial backing, the rise of humanism in diplomacy (hopefully). When the nations unite, the world will awake. While the idea is still impractical, the tribulations of propagating such ideals are long past. The movements have begun to dismiss nationalism. Patriotism will endure as the new strain of support to the Earth. For the time has come to crown patriotism at the top of political virtue whilst trashing nationalism for its suspicious attitude. 

OneWorld believes that One World is nearer today to a dream than a reality. However, times have changed, and will too. The crowning glory of humanity awaits it at the pulpit of a world-nation.

Red Star Over (South) Asia

  In a small nondescript village, down west of Siliguri in West Bengal, lie the roots of a movement which redefined the peasant’s revolution for not only India but the world. The Maoist Movement of South Asia which began with a small plot of land in the tiny village of Naxalbari [Naksal-bari]. From the peasants of West Bengal to the people of Nepal, the revolutionaries of Bangladesh to the terrorists of Myanmar; the far-reaching consequences of one remote village in 1967 never cease to astound. Maoism in itself is a sobriquet for Mao Zedong [Tse-Tung] Thought, a curious amalgamation of Marxist-Leninism with the rich and predominantly agricultural culture of the Asiatic region. A form of communism, but only just (for between Marxists and Maoists there exists a chasm of difference), Maoism is a theory of communism which advocates for a revolution by the peasantry than the proletariat (which is considered to be a higher economic class as per Marxist/Trotskyist classification). Key tr...

DECODED - Divisive Statements (P1)

Divisive statements. They are ubiquitous and not specific to any particular field. However, their most explicit usage is majorly in the field of politics. Nation-wide or region-specific, these statements are cunningly crafted to shock, provoke and divide. The Britons were pioneers in the strategy of 'divide-and-rule'. These tactics are conventional methods of providing a 'stable' base to configure an electoral gain for any candidate or political party. Its extensive usage threatens the pillars of democracy and the foundations of the Constitution. To immunise the populace to reject knowledgeably the statements made for the sake of electoral glory and not for the true spirit which it withholds. Readers here is an accurate and fact-filled description and analysis of the problem we are faced by today. Political parties are, in the author's definition,  an organised group of politically motivated individuals progressing an ideology forced upon them by Adam Smith...

India's Real Problem

Recently, the BBMP (A municipal body existing in Bengaluru) announced another scheme for the metropolitan city's security. As many laws, regional and nation-wide, go through about citizen security; this one was centric upon Women. The BBMP generously provided 33.64 crores of Indian Rupees to this project (Bengaluru only). The scheme engages the making of chambers for Women at Bus stands. The fogged glass enveloping the separate seats will ensure their security, shielding them from the looks of others. Such laws and schemes are commonplace in India. To the average eye, this may seem like a benevolent move by the authorities. Looks are deceiving; in this case, more so. These laws have inconceivable depths. Many consequences uncover upon a thorough investigation of the proposed scheme. Unfortunately, their existence substantially hinders the intention of the programme.  The BBMP must protect women from harassment (Cutthroat political competition). If the BBMP aims to get re-...
