Ficticious World Governments.

[swestrup]

A couple of years ago, in anticipation of TorCon3, _sps_ and I were asked to devise an entry form and a few example entries for a contest to invent a world government. We wrote 3 draft entry examples (note that the job was not to try and WIN the contest, but to show a range of possible entries) and presented them for discussion, but the contest idea was dropped from the plan and so no further work was done on them.  I recently came across them on a CD, and thought I would post our 3 ideas for world government here, since we were quite proud of them:

• Democratic Meritocracy
  
• The Techno-Despotic Concensus
• Global Canadism

Now if one of these comes about, I'll be able to point to these and say 'see, I told ya!' (Unless its #2, in which case I'll either be disallowed from pointing things out, or disinclined to do so, depending on whether I'm a citizen or your benevolant ruler...)

Uh-oh, you're letting the cat out of the bag on what I really think about Canada ;).
