This book offers a unique approach by using psychoanalytic theory
to explain how we can resolve the most important issues facing the
world today and in the future. One of my main arguments is that we
need to move beyond national politics in order to provide global
solutions to global problems. However, there is a misplaced fear
concerning global governance, and much of this phobia is derived
from a misunderstanding of history and human psychology. Not only
do we have to learn to give up our idealized investment in nations
and nationalism, but we also have to move beyond seeing the world
from the perspective of a victim fantasy. Since we often repress
real signs of global progress, we experience the global present and
the future in negative ways. To reverse this perspective, we need
to first understand the incredible progress humans have made in the
last two hundred years, but we also should not ignore the real
threats we face.
