The Spring of Civilization: A Case for World Federal Government

This 144-page book published in 1973 by lifetime world federalist, Ian J. Hackett, outlines a compelling case for a world federal government. Providing a historical overview of empires and nation-states, Hackett bases his arguments for global unity on the failures of the modern system of global governance. The book covers a wide range of global issues that the current system of global governance fails to address and outlines a federal system of global governance that would provide democratic pathways for humanity to address these global issues.
