A CHRONOLOGICAL
HISTORY OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER
by
D.L. Cuddy, Ph.D.
Arranged
and Edited by John Loeffler
In the mainline
media, those who adhere to the position that there is some
kind of "conspiracy" pushing us towards a world government are
virulently ridiculed. The standard attack maintains that the
so-called "New World Order" is the product of
turn-of-the-century, right-wing, bigoted, anti-semitic racists
acting in the tradition of the long-debunked Protocols of the
Learned Elders of Zion, now promulgated by some Militias and
other right-wing hate groups.
The historical
record does not support that position to any large degree but
it has become the mantra of the socialist left and their
cronies, the media.
The term "New
World Order" has been used thousands of times in this century
by proponents in high places of federalized world government.
Some of those involved in this collaboration to achieve world
order have been Jewish. The preponderance are not, so it most
definitely is not a Jewish agenda.
For years, leaders
in education, industry, the media, banking, etc., have
promoted those with the same Weltanschauung (world view) as
theirs. Of course, someone might say that just because
individuals promote their friends doesn't constitute a
conspiracy. That's true in the usual sense. However, it does
represent an "open conspiracy," as described by noted Fabian
Socialist H.G. Wells in The Open
Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World Revolution
(1928).
In 1913, prior to
the passage of the Federal Reserve Act President Wilson's
The
New Freedom was published, in which he
revealed:
"Since
I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to
me privately. Some of the biggest men in the
U.
S. , in the field of commerce
and manufacturing, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of
something. They know that there is a power somewhere so
organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so
complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above
their breath when they speak in condemnation of
it."
On November 21,
1933, President Franklin Roosevelt wrote a letter to Col.
Edward Mandell House, President Woodrow Wilson's close
advisor:
"The
real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a
financial element in the larger centers has owned the
Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson...
"
That there is such
a thing as a cabal of power brokers who control government
behind the scenes has been detailed several times in this
century by credible sources. Professor Carroll Quigley was
Bill Clinton's mentor at Georgetown University . President
Clinton has publicly paid homage to the influence Professor
Quigley had on his life. In Quigley's magnum opus Tragedy and
Hope (1966), he states:
"There
does exist and has existed for a generation, an international
... network which operates, to some extent, in the way the
radical right believes the Communists act. In fact, this
network, which we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has
no aversion to cooperating with the Communists, or any other
groups and frequently does so. I know of the operations of
this network because I have studied it for twenty years and
was permitted for two years, in the early 1960s, to examine
its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to
most of its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to
it and to many of its instruments. I have objected, both in
the past and recently, to a few of its policies... but in
general my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to
remain unknown, and I believe its role in history is
significant enough to be known."
Even talk show
host Rush Limbaugh, an outspoken critic of anyone claiming a
push for global government, said on his February 7, 1995
program:
"You
see, if you amount to anything in Washington these days, it is
because you have been plucked or handpicked from an Ivy League
school -- Harvard, Yale, Kennedy School of Government --
you've shown an aptitude to be a good Ivy League type, and so
you're plucked so-to-speak, and you are assigned success. You
are assigned a certain role in government somewhere, and then
your success is monitored and tracked, and you go where the
pluckers and the handpickers can put
you."
On May 4, 1993,
Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) president Leslie Gelb said
on The Charlie Rose Show that:
"...
you [Charlie Rose] had me on [before] to talk about the
New World Order! I talk about
it all the time. It's one world now. The Council [CFR] can
find, nurture, and begin to put people in the kinds of jobs
this country needs. And that's going to be one of the major
enterprises of the Council under
me."
Previous CFR
chairman, John J. McCloy (1953-70), actually said they have
been doing this since the 1940s (and before).
The thrust towards
global government can be well-documented but at the end of the
twentieth century it does not look like a traditional
conspiracy in the usual sense of a secret cabal of evil men
meeting clandestinely behind closed doors. Rather, it is a
"networking" of like-minded individuals in high places to
achieve a common goal, as described in Marilyn Ferguson's 1980
insider classic, The Aquarian
Conspiracy.
Perhaps the best
way to relate this would be a brief history of the New World
Order, not in our words but in the words of those who have
been striving to make it real.
1912
-- Colonel Edward M.
House, a close advisor of President Woodrow Wilson, publishes
Phillip Dru:
Administrator in which he promotes "socialism
as dreamed of by Karl Marx."
1913
-- The Federal
Reserve (neither federal nor a reserve) is created. It was
planned at a secret meeting in 1910 on Jekyl Island ,
Georgia
by a group of bankers and politicians, including
Col. House. This transferred the power to create money from
the American government to a private group of bankers. It is
probably the largest generator of debt in the world.
May
30, 1919 -- Prominent British
and American personalities establish the Royal Institute of
International Affairs in England and the Institute
of International Affairs in
the U.S. at a meeting
arranged by Col. House attended by various Fabian socialists,
including noted economist John Maynard Keynes. Two years
later, Col. House reorganizes the Institute
of International
Affairs into the Council on Foreign Relations
(CFR).
December
15, 1922 -- The CFR endorses
World Government in its magazine Foreign Affairs. Author
Philip Kerr, states:
"Obviously
there is going to be no peace or prosperity for mankind as
long as [the earth] remains divided into 50 or 60 independent
states until some kind of international system is created...
The real problem today is that of the world
government."
1928
-- The Open Conspiracy:
Blue Prints for a World
Revolution by
H.G. Wells is published. A former Fabian Socialist, Wells
writes:
"The
political world of the ... Open Conspiracy must weaken,
efface, incorporate and supersede existing governments... The
Open Conspiracy is the natural inheritor of socialist and
communist enthusiasms; it may be in control of Moscow before it is in control of
New York
... The character of the Open Conspiracy will now
be plainly displayed... It will be a world
religion."
1931
-- Students at the
Lenin School of Political Warfare in Moscow
are taught:
"One
day we shall start to spread the most theatrical peace
movement the world has ever seen. The capitalist countries,
stupid and decadent ... will fall into the trap offered by the
possibility of making new friends. Our day will come in 30
years or so... The bourgeoisie must be lulled into a false
sense of security."
1931
-- In a speech to
the Institute for the Study of International Affairs at
Copenhagen ) historian Arnold
Toyee said:
"We
are at present working discreetly with all our might to wrest
this mysterious force called sovereignty out of the clutches
of the local nation states of the world. All the time we are
denying with our lips what we are doing with our
hands...."
1932
-- New books are
published urging World Order:
Toward
Soviet America by William
Z. Foster. Head of the
Communist Party USA, Foster indicates that a National
Department of Education would be one of the means used to
develop a new socialist society in the U.S.
The
New World Order by F.S. Marvin, describing the
League of Nations as the
first attempt at a New World Order. Marvin says, "nationality
must rank below the claims of mankind as a whole."
Dare
the School Build a New Social
Order? is published.
Educator author George Counts asserts that:
"...
the teachers should deliberately reach for power and then make
the most of their conquest" in order to "influence the social
attitudes, ideals and behavior of the coming generation... The
growth of science and technology has carried us into a new age
where ignorance must be replaced by knowledge, competition by
cooperation, trust in Providence by careful planning and
private capitalism by some form of social
economy."
1933
-- The first
Humanist Manifesto is published. Co-author John Dewey, the
noted philosopher and educator, calls for a synthesizing of
all religions and "a socialized and cooperative economic
order." Co-signer C.F. Potter said in 1930:
"Education
is thus a most powerful ally of humanism, and every American
public school is a school of humanism. What can the theistic
Sunday schools, meeting for an hour once a week, teaching only
a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day
program of humanistic teaching?"
1933
-- The Shape of Things to
Come by H.G. Wells is
published. Wells predicts a second world war around 1940,
originating from a German-Polish dispute. After 1945 there
would be an increasing lack of public safety in "criminally
infected" areas. The plan for the "Modern World-State" would
succeed on its third attempt (about 1980), and come out of
something that occurred in Basra , Iraq . The book
also states,
"Although
world government had been plainly coming for some years,
although it had been endlessly feared and murmured against, it
found no opposition prepared
anywhere."
1934
-- The Externalization of
the Hierarchy by
Alice A. Bailey is published. Bailey is an occultist, whose
works are channeled from a spirit guide, the Tibetan Master
[demon spirit] Djwahl Kuhl. Bailey uses the phrase "points of
light" in connection with a "New Group of
World Servers" and claims that 1934 marks the
beginning of "the organizing
of the men and women... group work of a new order... [with]
progress defined by service... the world of the Brotherhood...
the Forces of Light... [and] out of the spoliation of all
existing culture and civilization, the new world order must be
built."
The book is
published by the Lucis
Trust, incorporated originally in New York
as the Lucifer
Publishing Company. Lucis Trust is a United
Nations NGO and has been a major player at the recent U.N.
summits. Later Assistant Secretary General of the U.N. Robert
Mueller would credit the creation of his World Core Curriculum
for education to the underlying teachings of Djwahl Kuhl via
Alice Bailey's writings on the subject.
1932
-- Plan for
Peace by
American Birth Control League founder Margaret Sanger (1921)
is published. She calls for coercive sterilization, mandatory
segregation, and rehabilitative concentration camps for all
"dysgenic stocks" including Blacks, Hispanics, American
Indians and Catholics.
October
28, 1939 -- In an address by
John Foster Dulles, later U.S. Secretary of State, he proposes
that America lead the
transition to a new order of less independent, semi-sovereign
states bound together by a league or federal union.
1939
-- New World
Order by
H. G. Wells proposes a collectivist one-world state"' or
"new
world order" comprised of "socialist
democracies." He advocates "universal
conscription for service" and declares that "nationalist
individualism... is the world's disease." He
continues:
"The
manifest necessity for some collective world control to
eliminate warfare and the less generally admitted necessity
for a collective control of the economic and biological life
of mankind, are aspects of one and the same process." He
proposes that this be accomplished through "universal law" and
propaganda (or education)."
1940
-- The New World
Order is
published by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
and contains a select list of references on regional and world
federation, together with some special plans for world order
after the war.
December
12, 1940 -- In The Congressional Record
an article entitled A New World
Order John G. Alexander calls for a world
federation.
1942
-- The leftist
Institute of Pacific Relations
publishes Post War
Worlds by P.E. Corbett:
"World
government is the ultimate aim... It must be recognized that
the law of nations takes precedence over national law... The
process will have to be assisted by the deletion of the
nationalistic material employed in educational textbooks and
its replacement by material explaining the benefits of wiser
association."
June
28, 1945 -- President Truman
endorses world government in a speech:
"It
will be just as easy for nations to get along in a republic of
the world as it is for us to get along in a republic of the
United
States
."
October
24, 1945 -- The United
Nations Charter becomes effective. Also on October 24, Senator

Chambers, a former senior editor of Time, testifies that
Hiss was a member of his Communist Party cell.
1946
-- The Teacher and World
Government by
former editor of the NEA
Journal (National Education Association) Joy Elmer
Morgan is published. He says:
"In
the struggle to establish an adequate world government, the
teacher... can do much to prepare the hearts and minds of
children for global understanding and cooperation... At the
very heart of all the agencies which will assure the coming of
world government must stand the school, the teacher, and the
organized profession."
1947
-- The American
Education Fellowship, formerly the Progressive Education
Association, organized by John Dewey, calls for the:
"...
establishment of a genuine world order, an order in which
national sovereignty is subordinate to world authority...

-- Walden
II by behavioral
psychologist B.F. Skinner proposes "a perfect
society or new and more perfect order" in which
children are reared by the State, rather than by their parents
and are trained from birth to demonstrate only desirable
behavior and characteristics. Skinner's ideas would be widely
implemented by educators in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s as
Values
Clarification and Outcome Based
Education.
July,
1948 --
Britain 's
Sir Harold Butler, in the CFR's Foreign
Affairs, sees "a New World Order" taking
shape:
"How
far can the life of nations, which for centuries have thought
of themselves as distinct and unique, be merged with the life
of other nations? How far are they prepared to sacrifice a
part of their sovereignty without which there can be no
effective economic or political union?... Out of the
prevailing confusion a new world is taking shape... which may
point the way toward the new order... That will be the
beginning of a real United Nations, no longer crippled by a
split personality, but held together by a common
faith."
1948
-- UNESCO president
and Fabian Socialist, Sir Julian Huxley, calls for a radical
eugenic policy in UNESCO: Its
Purpose and Its Philosophy. He states:
"Thus,
even though it is quite true that any radical eugenic policy
of controlled human breeding will be for many years
politically and psychologically impossible, it will be
important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is
examined with the greatest care and that the public mind is
informed of the issues at stake that much that is now
unthinkable may at least become
thinkable."
1948
-- The preliminary
draft of a World Constitution is published by
U.S.
educators advocating regional federation on the way toward
world federation or government with England
incorporated into a European federation.
The Constitution
provides for a "World
Council" along with a "Chamber of
Guardians" to enforce world law. Also included

government, and includes the right of this " Federal
Republic
of the World" to seize private
property for federal use.
February
9, 1950 -- The Senate
Foreign Relations Subcommittee introduces Senate Concurrent Resolution
66 which begins:
"Whereas,
in order to achieve universal peace and justice, the present
Charter of the United Nations should be changed to provide a
true world government
constitution."
The resolution was
first introduced in the Senate on September 13, 1949 by
Senator Glen Taylor (D-Idaho). Senator Alexander Wiley
(R-Wisconsin) called it "a consummation
devoutly to be wished for" and said,
"I
understand your proposition is either change the United
Nations, or change or create, by a separate convention, a
world order." Senator Taylor later stated:
"We
would have to sacrifice considerable sovereignty to the world
organization to enable them to levy taxes in their own right
to support themselves."
1950
-- In testimony
before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, international
financier James P Warburg said:

April
12, 1952 -- John Foster
Dulles, later to become Secretary of State, says in a speech
to the American Bar Association in Louisville ,
Kentucky , that
"treaty laws can
override the Constitution." He says treaties
can take power away from Congress and give them to the
President. They can take powers from the States and give them
to the Federal Government or to some international body and
they can cut across the rights given to the people by their
constitutional Bill of Rights. A Senate amendment, proposed by
GOP Senator John Bricker, would have provided that no treaty
could supersede the Constitution, but it fails to pass by one
vote.

alter our life in the United
States that we can be comfortably merged
with the Soviet Union
."
1954
-- Senator William
Jenner said:
"Today
the path to total dictatorship in the United States
can be laid by strictly legal means,
unseen and unheard by the Congress, the President, or the
people... outwardly we have a Constitutional government. We
have operating within our government and political system,
another body representing another form of government, a
bureaucratic elite which believes our Constitution is outmoded
and is sure that it is the winning side.... All the strange
developments in the foreign policy agreements may be traced to
this group who are going to make us over to suit their
pleasure.... This political action group has its own local
political support organizations, its own pressure groups, its
own vested interests, its foothold within our government, and
its own propaganda apparatus."
1958

shape a new world order in all its dimensions -- spiritual,
economic, political, social."
September
9, 1960 -- President
Eisenhower signs Senate
Joint Resolution 170, promoting the concept of a
federal Atlantic Union. Pollster and Atlantic Union Committee
treasurer, Elmo Roper, later delivers an address titled,
The
Goal Is Government of All the World, in which

"For
it becomes clear that the first step toward World Government
cannot be completed until we have advanced on the four fronts:
the economic, the military, the political and the
social."
1961
-- The U.S. State
Department issues a plan to disarm all nations and arm the
United Nations. State
Department Document Number 7277 is entitled
Freedom From
War: The U.S. Program for
General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful
World. It details a three-stage plan to disarm
all nations and arm the U.N. with the final stage in which
"no
state would have the military power to challenge the
progressively strengthened U.N. Peace Force."

The
Future of Federalism by
author Nelson Rockefeller is published. The one-time Governor
of New York, claims that current events compellingly demand a
"new
world order," as the old order is crumbling,
and there is "a new and free
order struggling to be born." Rockefeller says
there is:
"a
fever of nationalism... [but] the nation-state is becoming
less and less competent to perform its international political
tasks....These are some of the reasons pressing us to lead
vigorously toward the true building of a new world order...
[with] voluntary service... and our dedicated faith in the
brotherhood of all mankind.... Sooner perhaps than we may
realize... there will evolve the bases for a federal structure
of the free world."
1963
-- J. William
Fulbright, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
speaks at a symposium sponsored by the Fund for the Republic,
a left-wing project of the Ford Foundation:
"The
case for government by elites is irrefutable... government by
the people is possible but highly
improbable."
1964
-- Taxonomy of
Educational Objectives, Handbook II is
published. Author Benjamin Bloom states:
"...
a large part of what we call 'good teaching' is the teacher's
ability to attain affective objectives through challenging the
students' fixed beliefs."
His Outcome-Based
Education (OBE) method of teaching would first
be tried as Mastery
Learning in Chicago schools. After five
years, Chicago students' test scores
had plummeted causing outrage among parents. OBE would leave a
trail of wreckage wherever it would be tried and under
whatever name it would be used. At the same time, it would
become crucial to globalists for overhauling the education
system to promote attitude changes among school students.

former editor of the NEA Journal publishes The American
Citizens Handbook in which he says:
"the
coming of the United Nations and the urgent necessity that it
evolve into a more comprehensive form of world government

obligation to make the most of their citizenship which now
widens into active world
citizenship."
July

New World Order for the
Decade 1990, author Ian Baldwin, Jr. asserts
that:
"...
the World Law Fund has begun a worldwide research and
educational program that will introduce a new, emerging
discipline -- world order -- into educational curricula
throughout the world... and to concentrate some of its
energies on bringing basic world order concepts into the mass
media again on a worldwide level."

stand at the dawn of a new age... a secular society on a
planetary scale.... As non-theists we begin with humans not

on nationalistic grounds.... Thus we look to the development
of a system of world law and a world order based upon
transnational federal government.... The true revolution is
occurring."
April,
1974 -- Former
U. S.
Deputy Assistant Secretary of State, Trilateralist and CFR
member Richard Gardner's article The Hard Road to
World Order is published in the CFR's
Foreign
Affairs where he states that:
"the
'house of world order' will have to be built from the bottom
up rather than from the top down... but an end run around
national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will
accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal
assault."

to curtail that obligation."
Congresswoman
Marjorie Holt refuses to sign the Declaration saying:

wealth created by the American
people."

Couch is
published. Authors Phyllis Schlafly and former CFR member
Chester Ward state:

if local civil government is necessary for local civil peace,
then world civil government is necessary for world
peace."
1979
-- Barry Goldwater,
retiring Republican Senator from Arizona
, publishes his autobiography With No
Apologies. He writes:
"In
my view The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful,
coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four
centers of power -- political, monetary, intellectual, and
ecclesiastical. All this is to be done in the interest of
creating a more peaceful, more productive world community.
What the Trilateralists truly intend is the creation of a
worldwide economic power superior to the political governments
of the nation-states involved. They believe the abundant
materialism they propose to create will overwhelm existing
differences. As managers and creators of the system they will
rule the future."
1984
-- The Power to
Lead is published.
Author James McGregor Burns admits:
"The
framers of the U.S. constitution
have simply been too shrewd for us. The have outwitted us.
They designed separate institutions that cannot be unified by
mechanical linkages, frail bridges, tinkering. If we are to
'turn the Founders upside down' -- we must directly confront
the constitutional structure they
erected."
1985
-- Norman Cousins,
the honorary chairman of Planetary
Citizens for the World We Chose, is quoted in
Human Events:
"World
government is coming, in fact, it is inevitable. No arguments

fact."

president of the World Federalist
Association, an affiliate of the World
Association for World Federation (WAWF),
headquartered in Amsterdam . WAWF
is a leading force for world federal government and is
accredited by the U.N. as a Non-Governmental
Organization.
1987
-- The Secret Constitution
and the Need for Constitutional
Change is
sponsored in part by the Rockefeller Foundation. Some thoughts
of author Arthur S. Miller are:
"...
a pervasive system of thought control exists in the United
States... the citizenry is indoctrinated by employment of the
mass media and the system of public education... people are
told what to think about... the old order is crumbling...
Nationalism should be seen as a dangerous social disease... A
new vision is required to plan and manage the future, a global
vision that will transcend national boundaries and eliminate
the poison of nationalistic solutions... a new Constitution is
necessary."
1988
-- Former
Under-secretary of State and CFR member George Ball in a
January 24 interview in the New York
Times says:
"The
Cold War should no longer be the kind of obsessive concern
that it is. Neither side is going to attack the other
deliberately... If we could internationalize by using the U.N.
in conjunction with the Soviet Union, because we now no longer
have to fear, in most cases, a Soviet veto, then we could
begin to transform the shape of the world and might get the
U.N. back to doing something useful... Sooner or later we are
going to have to face restructuring our institutions so that
they are not confined merely to the nation-states. Start first
on a regional and ultimately you could move to a world
basis."

Son's Memoir is published. His father and
mother had been members of the Communist party. Bernstein's
father tells his son about the book:
"You're
going to prove [Sen. Joseph] McCarthy was right, because all
he was saying is that the system was loaded with Communists.
And he was right... I'm worried about the kind of book you're
going to write and about cleaning up McCarthy. The problem is
that everybody said he was a liar; you're saying he was
right... I agree that the Party was a force in the
country."
1990
-- The World Federalist
Association
faults the American press. Writing in their Summer/Fall
newsletter, Deputy Director Eric Cox describes world events
over the past year or two and declares:
"It's
sad but true that the slow-witted American press has not
grasped the significance of most of these developments. But
most federalists know what is happening... And they are not
frightened by the old bug-a-boo of
sovereignty."
September
11, 1990 -- President Bush
calls the Gulf War an opportunity for the New World
Order. In an address to Congress entitled
Toward a New
World Order, Mr. Bush says:
"The
crisis in the Persian Gulf
offers a rare opportunity to move toward an historic period of

born."

mind and begin a journey into a... new
age."
1991

conference participants joined some 100 other world leaders
for another closed door meeting of the Bilderberg
Society in Baden Baden, Germany. The
Bilderbergers also exert considerable clout in
determining the foreign policies of their respective
governments. While at that meeting, David Rockefeller said in
a speech:
"We
are grateful to the Washington Post, The New
York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose
directors have attended our meetings and respected their
promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have
been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we
had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those
years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared
to march towards a world government. The supranational
sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is
surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced
in past centuries."
July,
1991 -- The Southeastern
World Affairs Institute discusses the New World
Order. In a program, topics include,
Legal Structures
for a New World Order and The United

Network program, CFR member and former CIA director Stansfield
Turner (Rhodes scholar), when asked about Iraq
, responded:
"We
have a much bigger objective. We've got to look at the long
run here. This is an example -- the situation between the
United Nations and Iraq -- where the
United Nations is deliberately intruding into the sovereignty
of a sovereign nation... Now this is a marvelous precedent (to
be used in) all countries of the world...
"
October
29, 1991 -- David Funderburk,
former U.
S. Ambassador to Romania , tells a North Carolina
audience:
"George
Bush has been surrounding himself with people who believe in
one-world government. They believe that the Soviet system and
the American system are converging." The vehicle to bring this
about, said Funderburk, is the United Nations, "the majority
of whose 166 member states are socialist, atheist, and
anti-American."
Funderburk served
as ambassador in Bucharest from
1981 to 1985, when he resigned in frustration over
U.S. support of the
oppressive regime of the late Rumanian dictator, Nicolae
Ceausescu.
October
30, 1991: -- President
Gorbachev at the Middle East Peace Talks in Madrid
states:
"We
are beginning to see practical support. And this is a very
significant sign of the movement towards a new era, a new
age... We see both in our country and elsewhere... ghosts of
the old thinking... When we rid ourselves of their presence,
we will be better able to move toward a new world order...
relying on the relevant mechanisms of the United
Nations."

Development (UNCED) Earth Summit takes

Janeiro this year, headed by Conference
Secretary-General Maurice Strong. The main products of this

wealth must be transferred to the third world.
July
20, 1992 -- Time magazine publishes
The
Birth of the Global Nation by Strobe Talbott,
Rhodes Scholar, roommate of Bill Clinton at Oxford
University
, CFR Director, and Trilateralist, in which he
writes:
"All
countries are basically social arrangements... No matter how
permanent or even sacred they may seem at any one time, in
fact they are all artificial and temporary... Perhaps national
sovereignty wasn't such a great idea after all... But it has
taken the events in our own wondrous and terrible century to
clinch the case for world
government."
As an editor of
Time, Talbott
defended Clinton during his
presidential campaign. He was appointed by President Clinton
as the number two person at the State Department behind
Secretary of State Warren Christopher, former Trilateralist
and former CFR Vice-Chairman and Director. Talbott was
confirmed by about two-thirds of the U.S. Senate despite his
statement about the unimportance of national sovereignty.

president Winston Lord delivers a speech titled Changing Our
Ways: America and the New World, in which he

sovereignty, which will be controversial at home... [Under]

Americans are going to be hurt as low-wage jobs are taken
away."
Lord became an
Assistant Secretary of State in the Clinton
administration.
1992

Winter,
1992-93 -- The CFR's Foreign
Affairs publishes Empowering the
United Nations by U.N. Secretary General
Boutros-Boutros Ghali, who asserts:
"It
is undeniable that the centuries-old doctrine of absolute and
exclusive sovereignty no longer stands... Underlying the
rights of the individual and the rights of peoples is a
dimension of universal sovereignty that resides in all
humanity... It is a sense that increasingly finds expression
in the gradual expansion of international law... In this
setting the significance of the United Nations should be
evident and accepted."
1993
-- Strobe Talbott
receives the Norman Cousins Global Governance Award for his
1992 Time
article, The Birth of the
Global Nation and in appreciation for what he
has done "for the cause of global governance." President
Clinton writes a letter of congratulation which states:
"Norman
Cousins worked for world peace and world government.... Strobe
Talbott's lifetime achievements as a voice for global harmony
have earned him this recognition... He will be a worthy
recipient of the Norman Cousins Global Governance Award. Best
wishes... for future success."
Not only does
President Clinton use the specific term, "world government,"

pursuing world federal government. Talbott proudly accepts the
award, but says the WFA should have given it to the other
nominee, Mikhail Gorbachev.

23, 1993 -- Christopher
Hitchens, Socialist friend of Bill Clinton when he was at
Oxford University , says in a

country, and that it has allies
internationally."
October
30, 1993 -- Washington Post
ombudsman Richard Harwood does an op-ed piece about the role
of the CFR's media members:
"Their
membership is an acknowledgment of their ascension into the
American ruling class [where] they do not merely analyze and
interpret foreign policy for the United States
; they help make
it."
January/February,
1994 -- The CFR's
Foreign Affairs
prints an opening article by CFR Senior Fellow Michael Clough
in which he writes that the "Wise Men" (e.g. Paul Nitze, Dean
Acheson, George Kennan, and John J. McCloy) have:
"assiduously
guarded it [American foreign policy] for the past 50 years...
They ascended to power during World War II... This was as it
should be. National security and the national interest, they
argued must transcend the special interests and passions of
the people who make up America
... How was this small band of
Atlantic-minded internationalists able to triumph ... Eastern
internationalists were able to shape and staff the burgeoning
foreign policy institutions... As long as the Cold War endured
and nuclear Armageddon seemed only a missile away, the public
was willing to tolerate such an undemocratic foreign policy
making system."
1994
-- In the Human
Development Report, published by the UN Development Program,
there was a section called "Global
Governance For the 21st Century". The
administrator for this program was appointed by Bill Clinton.

strengthening the United Nations
system."

. Foundation President Jim Garrison chairs the
meeting of who's-whos from around the world including Margaret
Thatcher, Maurice Strong, George Bush, Mikhail Gorbachev and
others. Conversation centers around the oneness of mankind and
the coming global government. However, the term "global
governance" is now used in place of "new world order" since
the latter has become a political liability, being a lightning
rod for opponents of global government.
1996
-- The United
Nations 420-page report Our Global
Neighborhood is published. It outlines a plan
for "global governance," calling for an international
Conference on
Global Governance in 1998 for the purpose of
submitting to the world the necessary treaties and agreements
for ratification by the year 2000.
