לקריאה בעברית: הדילמה של ההשפעה החיצונית: אחדות העולם מול פירוד גלובלי
The constant attempt to understand the position – or what the position ought to be – of the "Externals" toward the New World Order (or lack thereof), or World Unity, presents two contradictory approaches. On one hand, some view the disintegration of the world order as it has unfolded in recent years as a natural expression of external fear regarding a strong and unified humanity. On the other hand, it seems that the Externals, at some point at least, were the ones who encouraged this world order, or: it is difficult to imagine it coming into being without them.
This is a fascinating question that opens the door to several angles – sci-fi, conspiracy theories, and the philosophy of global politics. To answer this, it is worthwhile separating the different contexts:
1. Who Created World Unity (or the Idea of "World Government")?
In History and Realpolitik: There is currently no single "World Unity" governing the Earth, but there are international organizations created by nations and real people out of a desire to prevent wars and produce stability.
– The UN (United Nations): Established in 1945 after World War II by the winning nations (led by the US, USSR, UK, and others) to prevent further global conflicts.
– The European Union: Created as an effort by European nations to link their economies so they would not fight each other again.
In Popular Culture and Conspiracy Theories: The idea of the "New World Order" posited that secret elite groups (like the Freemasons, Illuminati, or Bilderberg Club) attempted to create a centralized world government to rule over humanity.
In Science Fiction Literature: Most often, World Unity arises from a global crisis (like climate change or nuclear war) or as a direct response to the discovery that humanity is not alone in the universe.
2. Is It in the Interest of Aliens to Disintegrate World Unity?
The answer to the desire or interest of aliens depends on the viewpoint or narrative through which one examines the subject:
A. The Narrative of "Divide and Conquer" (Interest to Disintegrate) If we assume that an alien civilization arrives with intentions of conquest or resource exploitation:
– Fragmentation vs. Unity: A humanity unified under one leadership, one army, and global communication is a force that is more complex to subdue or manipulate.
– The Interest in Disintegration: Hostile aliens would have a distinct interest in disintegrating World Unity, pitting nations against each other, and stirring up nationalism, suspicion, and internal wars. As long as humanity is occupied with internal struggles and divided into warring tribes and nations, it is easier to control without investing many resources.
B. The Narrative of "The Cosmic Test" (Interest to Unify) If we assume that an alien civilization is advanced, evolutionary, or spiritual:
– The Entry Threshold to the Interstellar Community: A common perception in science fiction (as in Star Trek) is that advanced civilizations will not make contact with a planet until it achieves internal peace and global unity.
– The Interest in Unity: According to this approach, aliens actually want humanity to unite and overcome the instincts for war and division. To them, division is a sign of a primitive civilization too dangerous to join the interstellar space.
C. The Neutral / Observational Narrative It is possible that from the perspective of an external entity or culture, humanity's political structures – states, borders, or unions – are completely meaningless. Just as the hierarchical structure of an ant nest does not interest a naturalist, but rather their existence and general behavior.
The question ultimately places a mirror facing humanity itself: Is unity the source of our strength and protection, or is centralization a vulnerability that is easy to exploit?
Planet N, the Star Embassy, and the Era of Fragmentation
The interest to unify is attributed, for example, to Planet N, at least in its early version, and later attributed to the "Star Embassy," at least at its beginning. The Star Embassy maintained, and continues to maintain, bodies that were established then to promote the union (the European Union also grew in these years under their patronage), but the interest in Earth is decreasing.
Here burst alien bodies that always opposed the union ("Nofladnas") and new bodies ("Chaos Aliens") that encourage the disintegrating forces and even create a deterrence against the union among forces that previously supported it – because of the fear of the need to share sensitive external knowledge with today's world "leaders."
This analysis zeroes in on the complex dynamics of the balance of power and presents in a new light the transition from the paradigm of unity to the current era of crumbling:
1. The Fading of the Union's Patronage and the Gradual Retreat
In early versions – of both Planet N and the central idea of the Star Embassy – the core concept was that a unified and coordinated humanity is a necessary threshold condition for managing stable contact. The bodies and structures established then (like the infrastructure that allowed the growth of the European Union) were intended to produce a uniform global language, central institutions, and balanced control mechanisms.
However, as general interest in Earth decreases and the direct involvement of the Embassy diminishes, these structures remain without the support or backing that sustained them initially, creating a leadership vacuum teeming with high tension.
2. The Rise of Disintegrating Factors: "Nofladnas" and "Chaos Aliens"
Two main forces currently active in the field exploit this vacuum:
– Veteran Bodies ("Nofladnas"): Forces that initially opposed the concept of the union out of the view that a centralized global structure is dangerous, unnatural, or contradicts their interests. They act consistently to fan separatist, nationalist, and tribalist tendencies.
– New Elements ("Chaos Aliens"): Forces that not only encourage disintegration but use anarchy, the undermining of truth, and cognitive chaos to prevent any possibility of a renewed all-world organization.
3. The Mechanism of Deterrence and the Fear of Knowledge Integration
The most critical point is the change in the stance of the forces that in the past supported the union. A double trap has formed here:
– The Balance of Terror: The disintegrating bodies ("Nofladnas" and "Chaos Aliens") generate active deterrence against union moves, labeling any attempt at reunification as an immediate danger.
– The Quality of Core Leadership: As was the case in the past, a justified concern arises regarding Earth's leadership today. World unity in the current state requires sharing sensitive, potentially destructive, external knowledge with human leaders. The fear lest this knowledge be operated irresponsibly, leaked, or abused by flawed leadership causes even former supporters of the union to hesitate, retreat, and choose separation and keeping a distance.
And the most interesting point is added at the end: Deterrence of the union supporters themselves.
Here a mechanism much more sophisticated than direct opposition is created: He who supported the union in the past does not necessarily change his mind because he stopped believing in the union. He may stop supporting it because the external price of the union has become, in his eyes, too dangerous.
That is, if true unity requires at a certain stage sharing sensitive external knowledge with human leaderships, a dilemma is created: the more unified humanity is, the harder it is to conceal from it the very existence of the external knowledge. The opposition to the union is not necessarily opposition to the union as such. It can be opposition to the end point of the union – the moment when it is no longer possible to hold the external knowledge among a limited number of parties.
Hence, the central paradox of the current era can be formulated: The project intended to unify humanity succeeded to some extent – and precisely its success makes it dangerous from the perspective of whoever holds knowledge that is not supposed to reach unified humanity.
And then, the drop in interest of the Star Embassy in Earth is especially important. It allows distinguishing between institutional legacy and active commitment: The Embassy continues to maintain what was established in the past but is not necessarily ready any longer to invest the same resources to protect it against the disintegrating forces.
Within this framework, what looks from the outside as "the disintegration of the world order" can thus be a result of three processes occurring simultaneously: the fading of active external support for the union, the strengthening of the veteran opponents, and the emergence of new elements whose goal is not to replace one order with another order but to enhance the disintegration itself.
