The problem with Thomas Barnett's "Grand Strategy" is that it ignores too much of human nature.
The "international liberal trade order " was not “created” by President Roosevelt. It was implemented by Roosevelt mainly for bankers and very fat cats who really did not have “world peace and justice” in mind but had individual power and wealth in mind. America's neoconservative “New World Order” grew out of this mentality.
China is not really “integrating” into the Western New World Order, it is seeking dominance over the West. China wants to rule the world order, and usurp the West. China wants to make docile workers out of Americans as it did Chinese workers.
Globalization is happening (or was happening) because Western financial powers wanted it to happen, not because the world wants to be like middle class Americans.
America's model of getting the world “marketized,” having all genders in the labor force, etc., is in fact destroying ethnic and cultural identities around the world. The view that a “synthetic identity” of “global people,” which uses the argument that American's successfully integrated in this way, is simply wrong. America has not really integrated, and the differences, culturally and racially, within America, will only grow, leading to future disharmony or even civil war. Why? Because human nature in its most core behavior is very much oriented toward family, ethnic group, and localism, as sociobiology has been affirming, and as conservatives have said all along. The fact that we may be in a “post-Caucasian” world soon, and that this will lead to a “power sharing agreement” between, for example, European-Americans and non-Caucasians, is just plain utopian. Nations and cultures are developed based on the traits and habits of the founders of the nations, and when the founders change, the nation and culture changes. The post-Caucasian world may not want to affirm the international trade order and it may not even be bio-culturally oriented to do so. If anything, overt or covert civil war seems more likely.
What we require and what we think the world requires, is an affirmation, or reaffirmation, of real human nature and the biological origin of social behavior acknowledging that human beings are bio-culturally oriented toward family, ethnic group, and locality, and, yes, humans are religiously driven. When real human nature is suppressed rather than bonded and affirmed, all hell breaks loose. America and the world needs to be rid of the various versions of imperialism, whether financial, religious or racial imperialism. A United States of truly independent states, or ethnostates, and a Europe and Asia of thousands of ethnostates, defensively federated, and concerned with true human nature, and future evolution, is the future that we require, and the future that will inevitably develop, since ethnostates affirm true human nature and the biological origin of social behavior in accord with evolution and the natural world.
