You cannot either globalize everything nor nationalize everything. It seems very right to have globalized ecology and globalized economy but you can't have a globalized political system due to the fact that you have many countries with many different people. You cannot rule the world like a huge company and format everyone. In so doing you will kill differences, creativity, art, lifestyle etc. Weare not robots!

Climate change is a huge hoax and your ignorance about the facts is dangerous. China is working hard on fixing its environment and the problems of foreign companies consciously polluting their conutry. Job loss is a big issue. The Wall on the US southern border is a must in the face of huge exoduses which means that South America is completely unable to manage its own citizens. What do you think if China were to do the same and send thousands of Chinese to the US without restrain... Wouldn't this be crazy??

Reminded of Michael Parenti, an excerpt from his piece Mystery: How Wealth Creates Poverty, which highlights this very same dynamic under the auspices of global US empire and its continued "full spectrum domination" via currency hegemony and implicit omnipresent military threat: _"In their perpetual confusion, some liberal critics conclude that foreign aid and IMF and World Bank structural adjustments “do not work”; the end result is less self-sufficiency and more poverty for the recipient nations, they point out. Why then do the rich member states continue to fund the IMF and World Bank? Are their leaders just less intelligent than the critics who keep pointing out to them that their policies are having the opposite effect?_ _No, it is the critics who are stupid not the western leaders and investors who own so much of the world and enjoy such immense wealth and success. They pursue their aid and foreign loan programs because such programs do work. The question is, work for whom? Cui bono?_ _The purpose behind their investments, loans, and aid programs is not to uplift the masses in other countries. That is certainly not the business they are in. The purpose is to serve the interests of global capital accumulation, to take over the lands and local economies of Third World peoples, monopolize their markets, depress their wages, indenture their labor with enormous debts, privatize their public service sector, and prevent these nations from emerging as trade competitors by not allowing them a normal development._ _In these respects, investments, foreign loans, and structural adjustments work very well indeed._ _The real mystery is: why do some people find such an analysis to be so improbable, a “conspiratorial” imagining? Why are they skeptical that U.S. rulers knowingly and deliberately pursue such ruthless policies (suppress wages, rollback environmental protections, eliminate the public sector, cut human services) in the Third World? These rulers are pursuing much the same policies right here in our own country!_ _Isn’t it time that liberal critics stop thinking that the people who own so much of the world---and want to own it all---are “incompetent” or “misguided” or “failing to see the unintended consequences of their policies”? You are not being very smart when you think your enemies are not as smart as you. They know where their interests lie, and so should we."_

@@debclarke1746 _"The bourgeoisie cannot exist without constantly revolutionizing the instruments of production, and thereby the relations of production, and with them the whole relations of society. Conservation of the old modes of production in unaltered form, was, on the contrary, the first condition of existence for all earlier industrial classes. Constant revolutionizing of production, uninterrupted disturbance of all social conditions, everlasting uncertainty and agitation distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opinions, are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind."_ - some guy (Marx to not be pointlessly facetious), a bit optimistic at the end we wouldn't just choose individual delusion while the planet literally burns around us... And on that point, some Nietzsche to offer an explanation of how resentment both creates new moral systems of value but insulates these values subjectively as a passive coping mechanism for class domination, _"The slave revolt in morality begins when 'ressentiment' itself becomes creative and gives birth to values: the ressentiment of natures that are denied the true reaction, that of deeds, and compensate themselves with an imaginary revenge."_ Which is all to say, as that first guy once put it, _"The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways.

At a surface level, a lot of his ideas have merit BUT there are two incredibly important points unaccounted for: 1) Globalism has tremendously greater risks than rewards to the every day person if the people running the globalist show are corrupt 2) The human condition is flawed because of generational trauma. Until there is a transformation in how we approach and recondition trauma (Ex. Overcome greed, learn how to manage fear etc - which will never be perfect but we need to see massive change) then a human’s personal condition who is in charge will continue to infiltrate and influence public policy. We aren’t ready for big government that crushes the middle class until there is more healing in our world.

It´s not really as simple as comparing the two words Nationalism and Globalism.

"Nationalism can solve global issues because it's in the best interest of every nation to survive." Globalism isn't the death of nations, it's about the unity of humankind. "Every nation can see what it needs to do to solve their own problems-" Let me stop you right there, how many nations answer that problem with OTHER nations? Seeking help, or taking resources, or or or "And *I am sure most nations* want to move in the direction of saving the planet." This isn't true. Most politicians are only worried about themselves, their term, their agendas. They don't serve their population, they serve themselves and their minds. In a way, and at a distance, this begins to manifest as serving "their" people, which is right back to red vs blue and left vs right. Nations are short term, they had served a point, but that term is over. I feel like you latched onto his message of how israel wants to build temple as a "retrograde vision", a way to go back to a comforting point and move forward from there, and you instantly saw him as the enemy and a foreigner who just wants in YOUR america. It was never yours. It's land. It belongs to every foot that steps on it for the moment that foot is there and no longer. So go ahead and stomp your foot, you're only proving our point. shill that.

everything he said is within the accepted mainstream dogma that somehow the only form of globalisation is this current right wing neoliberal form, making nationalism the only alternative. he even made the ridiculous statement that left and right are no longer relevant. and of course with those assumptions he can't answer the question about inequality. and he can tell you that politicians have a limited ability to do good, but can't say it's largely because of corporate interests. automation is also a left/right issue in many ways. if automating work or making it easier leads to lower living standards for some, the problem is the economic system not the automation.

A global government would be a very dangerous thing. You can't just say its necessary to solve some problems but ignore those it will create. Once you have just 1 governing body, you've completely lost the ability for self-correcting policies due to comparing and contrasting between different regions. That's why smaller government is good. It allows a kind of darwinian process to occur, where people can vote twice on what's preferable: first in an election and second with their feet. I seriously worry a global government will make disastrous decisions but be too cocky and closed minded to admit it.

I must make a presentation for university about this topic. Thanks for sharing.

This idea that the main political argument today is between globalism and nationalism is a misframing of the argument. No one has a problem with global trade, communication, or interactions. The problem with globalism is the actors in the globalist movements and the fact they wish to rule for their own sakes rather than the sake of the people of the globe. It's much like the problem with the EU. If the EU would work like the US, in the way the various states relate to the nation, I think the EU would not have the problems with acceptance it does today. The EU operates as a bureaucratic Oligarchy, not a democratic republic. This video speaks to this issue by speaking of individualism (nationalism) vs collectivism (globalism).kzread.info/dash/bejne/ooOL1KWEgJecj9o.html

Liberation from suffering is a futile and dangerous idea. An eternal solution cannot be to perpetually and selflessly sedate everyone's need to avoid suffering without any responsibility. Suffering is part and parcel of existing in a limited world. Limitations will not disappear with a globalist religion that want's to believe world can be run by solving things in global social structures. When supply runs low supply needs to be regulated and a global "no-borders" world is unable to do it efficiently. Without borders world will implode with global irresponsibility. Only borders can limit resources efficiently enough so that the most responsible will have most resources. If we let people who just breed most, have more resources, there will be no way of stopping irresponsible rise in global population. Borders should be shut completely, those who breed should be responsible for the land they breed upon.

Great talk. Appreciate TED trying this approach. Most of what Mr Harari spoke about I agree with. I would like to suggest that Mr Harari investigate the "Cosmic Drama" that is affecting every soul on earth. This battle between good and evil is our reality, it must be won within each individual person. Then as we individual humans gain understanding and control over ourselves, we can become able to love others from any nation and work together to solve problems that are too great for individuals or nations to tackle alone. This spiritual battle is described best through the teaching known as the Divine Principle revealed by Rev. Dr Sun Myung Moon. Also, Mr. Harari's comment that humans have no useful purpose exposes a huge missing piece of the puzzle of his life. Again, the purpose of life is answered clearly in the Divine Principle. Thank you.

I enjoyed the interesting statistics by Harari at the beginning of the talk, but if 1914 should teach us something, than it is for sure at the very least: "never underestimate the stupidity and megalomania of unelected political leaders who are striving for creating big European empires". Nobody denies that we need global conversation and cooperation on several issues. But firstly, this cooperation needs then to occur really GLOBALLY, not continentally - to move political power to big regional entities like the EU is in fact counterproductive for global issues because it will lead to big power conflicts between the blocks of political and military power on a global scale. And secondly, even though there are global issues and their number might be increasing, the big bulk of the political decisions should ever more be decided in manageablly-sized political entities. Because huge global and continental political entities cannot be democratically controlled and concentrate way too much power and economic resources in the hands of very few. Huge political entities always end up sooner or later to become imperialistic dictatorships.

Sam 88 Not always true either, I have a feeling both of you are right, for some it’s nurture for others it’s nature. Around 1 in 5 CEOs are psychopaths, meaning they really don’t feel much sympathy or empathy. Being a psycho also means you’re generally great at getting what you want out of people, which is most of sales. A psycho is way more likely to work towards one of these positions than say become a serial killer, for obvious reasons. Now that leaves 4 out of 5 who aren’t, who probably go against their own morals quite a bit, which generally I think is best done by dehumanizing people through numbers and generalizations, as well as a bit of selfishness. As Joseph Stalin once put it, “If one man dies it’s a tragedy, if millions die it’s a statistic”. If for example you’re a billionaire CEO, due to negligence and corner cutting, one of your buildings has an accident, killing 500 guys. You don’t know any of these people personally, you didn’t intend to kill them, and ultimately it doesn’t really personally affect you in any way other than the PR nightmare and money to families. You don’t really feel the moral repercussions because you can just place it in your mind as a statistic or generalize it and not feel poorly about it. This isn’t a psychopathic action, everyone has done this at some point or another. It’s the same reason you can watch say a war movie and feel nothing at watching a bunch of characters die on screen, you can’t really feel bad for each individual character. Or you can go to something like the Vietnam memorial and not burst into tears every time you see it. As a leader one of the biggest flaws you can make is judging how well you’re doing by your supporters, not by your critics. This is why Donald Trump is as hated as he is, he’s judging himself based on what his supporters say about him.

The extreme version where every nation performs every function for itself and must therefore have a very rigid, hierarchical society within it is also not palatable to me. There must be something in between where the lowest paid worker rights are protected (and there remains a proportion of each 'type' of worker in each nation despite some economic specialisation taking place nationally) whilst we retain national autonomy over certain crucial aspects.

The most clever question was raised by the woman from Ghana; "Isn't this just another justification for western nations to rule the world?". I have read Sapiens and think Harari is simplifying in order to create a sympathetic message. That nations just are imaginations, not reality are simply not true. Nations have built up institutions that ensures the welfare of its people. Most nations have some sort of social contracts which means that you contribute with tax and get something back. The more transparant and efficient these institutions are, the more sucsessfull will a nation be. This is not imaginations, it is reality! We need global regulations - I agree on that. But a global government will probably be an authoritarian government that either will develop to a dictatorship governed by multinational cooperations in constant wars with regional upraisings. Harari is a prophet, because he only use the sciense that is useful for him. He use very little social and political sciense and the vast amount of socialanthropological knowledge that is available to explain human social behaviour and draw conlusions for what is possible from this knowledge.

Onthe contrary, he is the kind of man whose colourful rhetoric caused many of the conflicts of the past. Globalists are using Orwell's 1984 as a template for how to control people. If we carry on surrendering national powers to global organisations, as Harari suggests, we will end up losing all of our freedoms in the name of protection. We are on a dangerous road towards a single, world government which would have a single, world army. With that amount of power why would they bother remain democratic? It's way too risky, and reversing the situation would be near impossible.

The discussion about the topic of nationalism vs globalism is an intellectually stimulating one. The guest has done a fine job articulating many of the points relevant to such a topic. However, given the journey he has undertaken acquiring valuable knowledge over the years, and especially since he had given many talks directly relating to religion, it is surprising that he did not answer properly the question about the purpose of life. He surely knows that a more complex answer exists, to such a profoundly existential question, than the one he provided.

The main problem with his reasoning is that he too readily conflates global cooperation and global governance, so he will talk about an issue that requires cooperation, and then immediately concludes that this means we need a global government. The root of this mistake is in thinking that problems can only be solved by governments, and so a global problem needs global governance. This is despite how he actually goes on to talk about a basic problem with increased government power (28:41), which is that in his words, the political system "cannot do a lot of good, but can do a lot of harm" - for example it's easy for a gov to start a war, but difficult for it to reduce inequality. As hinted by the host's question, an alternative way to look at problem solving is to do it by science, technology, industriousness, invention etc - people coming together to solve problems and improve conditions, because people want to solve problems and improve conditions. Government is not a necessary ingredient here, and arguably just slows down and gets in the way of people who are trying to solve the problems. Further to the point of government very easily causing harm, but finding it difficult to do good, Harari gives a chilling response to Jonathan Haidt's question (at 26:00). Haidt asks why he thinks the global gov would be good, since we can look around the world and see that government corruption is the rule rather than the exception, and so why would we expect the global government to be like Denmark rather than Russia. Harari responds _"we don't have workable democratic models for government on a global scale, most likely it wouldn't look like Denmark_ ["like Denmark" meaning democratic and non-corrupt] _so maybe it would look more like ancient China, but we need to have the ability to force through difficult decisions on the global level"._ This sounds like a belief tailor-made for causing harm on a mass scale. Please note his use of the word _force_ together with "on the global level". Personally, I don't think it's a good idea to have a regime which he himself says/implies would probably be non-democratic and corrupt, with absolute power (as in ancient China) over everyone in the world, and the ability and will to use force to make people do what they want them to do. Just look at the recent history of China or Russia to see how many millions were essentially sentenced to death for the supposed greater good. The other main problem he has is that he doesn't seem to see how it is in the individual's self-interest to solve a problem shared by the group, despite repeatedly giving examples which go against this idea. 19:10 _"you don't get socialists denying climate change, but if you want to be a nationalist in the 21st century then you must deny the problem of climate change, because nationalism has no solution"._ This is a prime example of his faulty reasoning. It's like saying "Imagine you're on a sinking ship, and the only chance for survival is for everyone to work together to fix the ruptured hull. The person whose main priority is saving themselves and their family will deny that the ship is sinking because they can't fix the hole by themselves, and so they will do nothing". Of course this is absurd reasoning. *Above all else, it is the individual's self-interest which most strongly motivates them to cooperate* with the other individuals to solve the problem and fix the hole in the hull; likewise, it is in the self-interest of individual nations to work together to solve climate change. He then goes on to specifically say (52:40) how it is poorer nations like Ghana or Bangladesh who have the strongest incentives to solve a problem such as climate change, which seems to go against his idea that a nationalist attitude will result in denying climate change, but rather he clearly talks about solving global problems in terms of national self-interest. He further undermines his own point by talking about nuclear weapons (57:30). He says how in the mid-20th century many people thought there would be a nuclear holocaust, and in facing this problem, nations started to change their approach to politics and war; he even attributes this change as the main factor in reducing international violence and the great reduction in the number of people killed by wars nowadays. He neglects to mention how this was _not_ achieved by global governance, but rather by individual nations realising what was in their own self-interest, and then acting accordingly, whether that was collaborating with other nations or just generally being more peaceful. After all, what even is a "global problem" that he is talking so much about? A global problem is just a problem that affects everywhere. A "global problem" is just another way of saying a national problem for _every nation._ *And why wouldn't a nation want to solve a national problem?*

"Individual nations realising what was in their own self-interest, and then acting accordingly, whether that was collaborating with other nations" "Global government" is simply the apparatus by which collaboration among many nations is achieved. Nobody is saying that individual national governments have to be erased. Think of the USA as a smaller example. There are 50 states, each with their own state government, but they are only able to cooperate effectively on defense and other big challenges because of the existence of a single federal government. Think of the "global government" as the federal government, and the individual countries as states. It works well for the USA, so what's the problem on a global scale?

20:35 Now that's a _first_ for microphones

Power attracts the worst, and corrupts the best.

Nationalism gives a people a sense of patriotism, culture, an identity. When nation's come together to preserve our ecosystem so we both survive brings about a mindset that we are one. Globalism (NWO) is a beast that will destroy both ...

This video is exactly the problem! It says, there are only 2 options. Dividing us again. look at the comments. "Nationalism is Bad" "Globalism is Bad." I happen to think that a Global economy is good and a National culture is good. We need to try and find multiple solutions. This is not the highlander, There can be more then one.

Right on. The feeling of being global citizen is not something to be pushed or forced by removing the concept of nations but to be transcended in one's mind despite their existence.

Suffering is a reality created by the elite. If you really want to see reality, go through the door after they murder nearly 7 billion people and enslave the remaining 500 million. The New World Order and this is his plan to eliminate suffering. How's that for reality?

Nationalism vs. globalism is to me a no brainer, it is Nationalism!

Really interesting talk. Thank you for posting. The title of the talk is illustrative of where "we" still are in the process of evolving through this. We, at some point, will no longer feel the need to make things into a "this vs. that" narrative. There is a way to sync the two concepts. They are part of the same continuum of thought and are the result of taking different precepts into primary consideration when developing a conclusion. There are several points of agreement between nationalism and globalism, however when framed as a battle, neither participant will be completely open and honest in regards to the validity of the others primary concerns, and will not acknowledge the likely negative outcomes of their proposed solution. You can't hype everybody up for a fight and expect peaceful dialogue.

I am truly impressed with the way the author in this video discusses some of the most important and pressing issues that are affecting humans across the globe. I agree with some individuals that we need a new political order whereby an increasing number of people begins to basically lean toward the idea of global citizenship at the expense of one's ethnicity. But one thing has always remained consistent over eons of time: humans have this tendency to remain aloof and to distrust our fellow humans who live beyond the mountains or across the plains whilst doing everything within our political, economic or diplomatic means to counter the threats( real or imagined) which is coming from a government or ruling regime across the border or from a country miles away from us geographically.

The problem with globalizing is that it is incapable of addressing the needs of the many, and the few. At a certain size all arguments dissolve into chaos, and the needs of the few are not given credence. You ask why the people suddenly give up on the idea of globalizing? Because they look at the results. People were fine with the idea till suddenly it started affecting their lives. For example California was once prized as one of the best places in the world to live, and now is commonly regarded as a festering pile of garbage where only the very rich or the very poor live. Or take Europe and the issue of mass migration dictated by the EU. The needs of the "many" were considered without regard to the impact of the few, and now the few have risen up and struck back in england, poland and many other countries.

The guy is just postulating another communistic fervour, or "anti Trump" rhetoric. What good is that for the sake of philosopical discourse.

Pragmatic nationalism is where I stand. I would be reasonably happy to move towards a global identity, but there seems to be only one method being tried by the West to make that happen, and that is; "Ok - we will bend to the wants and cultural norms of others, subvert our own culture wherever and whenever asked and acquiesce to whatever demands are made from other cultures - including those less advanced that our own - in the hope that this triggers a reciprocal move from them" And guess what? That doesn't work. We get "Oh look at the weak west - especially their left wing - they will bend over and take it - whenever and wherever we want out of post colonial guilt - let's push this as far and as destructively as we can and before they realise, we have imposed our own brand of cultural toxicity over theirs. So easy for us - they actually invite it" How does that lead to a better world? From where I'm sat it leads to a massive disaster and is in itself the catalyst for conflict brought out of resentment. This method does not work and the kickback from cultures that are part of this "let's acquiesce and see where it gets us" experiment are fighting back against what seems to be a demonstrably terrible idea. The idea of inviting cultures and ideologies that, for example, still treat women as vassals, mutilate children and have penal systems that are frankly barbaric and socially toxic - is now being understood. The EU moving sharply to the right and fracturing is a good example of this. The EU has the huge disadvantage that it started with an unapologetically undemocratic framework that is now falling apart and is becoming the victim of its own lack of democracy and accountability. I'm happy to jump on board the global train if and when someone seems to have a workable plan to get us to the goals people like Yuval Noah quite eloquently express - but the lefts plan to get us there seems too much like Turkeys voting for Christmas to me. And we are seeing hundreds of million of people across Europe and the USA very strongly reject it. UK, USA, Germany, now Austria. This is (I believe) directly the fault of the left wings socialist agenda which brokers no argument and no voice to those who question it in the media or in academia. So it's being questioned in the ballot boxes and the streets of the West.

The time before the financial crisis, the time when everyone is just concerned about their socioeconomic positions and how to better that by fiscal & monetary policies, not this decade that focuses more on what should I call it, Cultural sensitivity? Political correctness? Where is the rationality of the individual, our own books about economics talk about this, but its if course a mistake to think humans are rational actors. I agree in your point about pragmatism, I could gladly align myself with liberal conservatives & social democrats because 1) Liberal conservatism's values are in line with what we call human rights, not other types of conservatism like that of religions, The Catholic church of today, the feudal age, renaissance, age of enlightment, The Wahabhist state of Saudi Arabia, the Iranian Shia Theocracy, the extremely Orthodox Jews, Sunni's & Shia extremists of Syria, Iraq, etc. 2) Social democracy is more pragmatically achieved than Democratic socialism (though it is an attractive idea) even those who claim to be, are actually social democrats, look at the Nordic countries, though now their institutions are stretched to their limit (I would advocate it to my homeland, the Philippines).

It’s a shame Yuval didn’t engage with the point about CFCs in the question at 26:30. That is a recent example of how nation states can work together to solve an important global problem.
