EXPORTING DEMOCRACY
ABOUT THE BOOK
The world is in ferment. The situation of today’s world is at its worst. There is trouble in every part of the world. We were supposed to have peace and prosperity at the end of the Great Wars. And for a few decades we did. The Cold War kept peace of sorts and no major wars were fought. But it all changed with the collapse of the USSR. We lost the balance of power and only USA dominated. At the moment there are wars all over the world on every continent – it is the super-powers attacking small nations. The excuses are taking democracy to those countries by force through war or war on terror. We are terrorising small nations in the name of ending terror by bringing not only terror, but also death, destruction and annihilation in our wake.
This book sets out to comprehensively look at the reasons behind the present condition of the world today. It looks to uncover if there is any real democracy in the world today and the types of democracy available to us. Not everything is suited to everyone. We certainly do not want totalitarian rule in the name of democracy. But that is the way we are going. It is time to stop. Take stock and decide – do we want a better world, or do we want to destroy this world?
Perhaps we are the final throes of our civilization and don’t even realize it!
EXTRACT
Ever since men discovered the riches and wealth in any form in other countries, the desire to possess that wealth became overwhelming. At the start it was desire for exchange of goods – of course always weighted in favour of whoever was smarter or had more naval power at their call. Merchant navies were the rage. Ships travelled far and wide across the oceans seeking and finding new sources of treasures. They traded but soon just trading was not enough to satisfy their desire to possess that wealth. So colonisation began for possession of the wealth and manpower of less militaristic nations. It was the heyday for Colonial powers.
