[Juenger-list] EJ on Globalization

[mvk575b@tninet.se (Bertil Haggman)]

Schwilk at one time wrote an article on EJ and
globalization. This is a very interesting theme.

EJ answered in Hervier's interview book  _Details
of Time_ on the world state:

"If ever the world state is to come about, or at least
the preliminary stage of a united Europe, the nations,
such as they have formed after 1789, have to merge
together little by little: I mean the fatherlands. On the=20
other hand, the regions - Normadny, Cher (?), Marseilles,
etc. - what I call the motherlands, will become more and
more important. Centralism will diminish on this level,
and it will shift to utterly enormous entities."

(p. 127)

At least when the interviews were done, it seems EJ
was a Gaullist.

One would think with all the fuss about globalization
we are seriously on the way to a world state. But on a realist
level the nation state is still strong and a global
civilization far away.
