ASIA – UNITED STATES
Obama, world crisis and the new
world order
by Maurizio d’Orlando
The depth of the current economic crisis is leading
many people to favour a form of governance that would place economic and
political life under the trusteeship of international organisations. Barack
Obama’s new cabinet, which is made up of those responsible for the crisis, will
ensure the ascendancy of financial interests. In the meantime no one is calling
for the people to have power in the monetary sphere. The result is that
democracy is being killed by financial power.
Milan
(AsiaNews) – A new world order has been in the making for quite some time and is
now becoming “inevitable”. Many a politician and economist are quick to say that
great sacrifices are called for, and that any “reasonable” person will see that
suffering and hardship are “necessary.”
The crisis that is currently affecting our lives is behind this global shift. The slow fire has moved from real estate, to banking and finances, and is now reaching industry, agriculture and the whole economy. From the heartland in the United States it is reverberating outward touching the entire world.
The fear of a domino effect and its potential for economic, political and social upheavals and the fear of widespread anarchy will provide the necessary tools to install this new order, which for most people will appear as the only possible outcome. The act of governing will change as a world body will be in charge the financial, economic and tax systems. Police, prisons and private relations inside and outside the family will come under its purview, so will national sovereignty of the peoples and the right to express opinions that are different from those of the single thought of relativism, which will be seen as the only solution that is available and desirable.
