Hi folks
This is to be a continuation of my previous "socialism" thread, in a way. :lol:
So, would you prefer a localized form of government (let's say an medieval Italian city-state type of society) or you would go for the globalized centralized power (super-states like the USA, former USSR, EU, the hypothetical NAU, OWG (one world government), you name it...)?
Are you for localization (decentralization, local government) or for globalization (centralization, global/distant government)?
eace
P.S. Sorry, I made some grammar mistakes. Could a mod fix them, please? Thanks in advance.
Localisation, as you defined it, is too small of an area (ie city). If it was to the country's unique heritage and culture, then I would vote 100% yes

I wish I could have voted other, because I am 100% for Americanism.
Our economy will never recover and we will never be competitive in World markets until the grip the thug Unions have on some business and most Government is ended.
I believe Unions and their leaders should be put on trial under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, commonly referred to as the RICO Act, because they use threats of and actual violence, and intimidation to coerce compliance to their demands. They contribute to inflation in the process.
I love the idea of city-states, though there's a tonne of problems that comes with it, it'd still be pretty cool.
As technology improves, the difference between local and global shrinks...
I was thinking more about political localization and globalization, not technical. That is, politics. The power to conduct your life as you consider right - that's liberty; not some fatass bureaucrat in Brussels, Moscow or Washington deciding which hand people should wipe their ass with.
What difference does how close you live to the seat of government have to do with "the power to conduct your life as you consider right"? What's to stop a corrupt local government from trying to take away rights?
And as I said, local and global are becoming the same thing. We are all becoming interdependent. Segmenting political structure, and ignoring the reality of economics, trade, flow of information, and culture... that's refusing to keep up with the modern world.
You know, if you meet everyday your managers and legislators on the street, it's easier to tackle the problems than delegating the right to some guy 2000 miles away to decide your life (with s/he not knowing if you ever exist).It's the "small town" type of relations.
But then a government can never tackle a problem larger than "should we add a stop light over on Sycamore Street?"
