Likely, there will be a slow death to nationalism. Unfortunately by slow I mean over the next century. I have given much thought over the past decade to what direction we humans will take, and can see a larger picture in my mind of an evolving pattern of hesitant steps. Up until perhaps, five years ago, The United States had an opportunity to lead the world down a unified road. We have sadly squandered a rare opportunity to guide the world population toward a closer relationship of peace and relative harmony. Primarily by losing any respect we once held in the eyes of the collective Earth population. A true Pity.
I anticipate great change over the next Fifty years.....mostly due to the EU, and the likely, and in my mind inevitable redirection of Asian politics. If by chance there is a change in the mindset of the United States that allows for a return to a dominant Humanitarian role in world affairs, things may be expediated. Sadly my faith in this prospect has been badly shaken. It has come to the rest of the world to pave the way to a unified world......One can only hope they are up to the task.
