Forget all the think tank talking points of "democracy versus authoritarianism". The reality is that the most authoritarian structure is the phony democratic Unipolar Order, in which those making the rules do so behind the curtain and use the permanent bureaucracy -- sometimes called the "Deep State" -- to run the show on their behalf. That system is collapsing. What's needed is a guiding set of principles to build a new strategic and development architecture which is fair, representing the interests of the people of all sovereign states.
