I will be risking my doctoral degree if I will insist on writing things that even my professors are not familiar with.
<br />
<br />On the positive note, I managed to write two doctoral papers about it but as expected, my lowest grades in my doctroal classes was on these papers......my professors seem to be unconvinced about the concept.
<br />
<br />Taking that as a cue..I decided to go conservative, write on something that my professors may like and are familiar with and secure my doctoral degree. But, I promise that I will write a book about world government via The Globalist Manifesto before I die....for now, I really need the degree...give this stuff to me this time.
<br />
<br />Besides, nobody from the international community motivated or requested me to write a dissertation on world government..where is UN? where is Ford Foundation? where is this Bilderberg Group? why are they leaving me alone in this important crusade?
<br />
<br />Trailblazing is really a very lonely job.... why do I have to care too much for the future of the human existence when nobody, not even our well known world leaders today, have not shown that much.
<br />
<br />So, here is my final dissertation topic proposal, call this as my protest choice, after my first choice have not given me enough encouragements:

<br /><strong>The “Marikina Way”, the Case of Marikina Under the Fernando Administrations (1992-2010)
<br /></strong>
<br /><strong>1.0. Introduction:</strong>
<br /><strong>
<br /></strong>Bayani Fernando and Maria Lourdes C. Fernando were mayors of Marikina City, Metro Manila, Philippines, for the last 18 years, from 1992 to 2001 for Bayani and from 2001 to 2010 for Maria Lourdes. To put this paper into the proper context, Marikina started as a town of the Province of Rizal and a series of Mayor, including the father of Bayan Fernando, with little progress. With the advent of the Local Government Code and with population growth, it qualified into a city and thereby increasing its IRA, and therefore, more funds for basic services. Bayani Fernando has been a successful business man in the field of construction before joining the public service. He lost once as a municipal councilor and lost again as a mayor. These personal circumstances armed him lessons and gave him drive that forms part of his leadership style.
<br />Public administration, the way it is being done in “Marikina City” since the time of then City Mayor Bayani F. Fernando, who is now the MMDA Chairman, up to the present city mayor, Marides C. Fernando, has cought a lot of attention from public administration practioneers. The city has been reaping several local and international awards. The cleanliness and orderliness of the surroundings around the city is phenomenal. The squatters, the flooding, the anarchy in the sidewalks were all acted upon. Its programs are trailblazing. Oftentimes, you will hear people saying that if things can be done in Marikina, why can’t we do it in other places in the Philippines? In fact, even the Asian Institute of Management’s International Movement of Development Managers is planning to come up with a training module for local leaders on how they can benchmark on Marikina. The proximity of Marikina to Manila and the IRA it gets from the national government as mandated by the Local Government Code are some reasons why Marikina achieved a lot of things. This is the intent of this dissertation; to document the way the Fernando’s ran Marikina.
<br /></strong>
<br />The couple, MMDA Chairman Bayani Fernando and Marikina Mayor Maria Lourdes C. Fernando had been at the helm of Marikina City for the last 18 years, from 1992 to 2010. To put this paper into the proper context, Marikina started as a town of the Province of Rizal and a series of Mayor, including the father of Bayan Fernando, has not created too much progress. With the advent of the Local Government Code and with population growth, it qualified into a city and thereby increasing its IRA, and therefore, more funds for basic services. Bayani Fernando has been a successful business man in the field of construction before joining the public service. He lost once as a municipal councilor and lost again as a mayor. These personal circumstances gave him enough lessons and drive that forms part of his leadership style. What Bayani Fernando started, his wife, Mayor Marides Fernando continued with a certain touch.
<br />How do you run a city like Marikina – clean, organized, international acclaimed by World Bank and Konrad Adenuer Foundation, prosperous, peaceful and world class, with its former Mayor one of the leading presidential contenders of the country in the 2010 elections and its present Mayor one of the Top 7 finalists in the World Mayor Award? “Our City Hall is run like a private corporation. We treat our clients as our customers whom we want not only to satisfy but to delight.” – Marikina Mayor Marides Fernando. The Marikina local government is divided into seven clusters, namely, administrative support, public order and safety, finance management and project development, infrastructure development and transportation, citizens’ affairs, economic development; and, health and environmental management.
<br />Apparently, the public administration theories and concepts that had been applied in Marikina is the right eclectic pick. “Proof positive of the city's standing in the league of metropolitan cities in the Philippines are the numerous awards and citations that have been bestowed. Marikina was first awarded as The Cleanest and Greenest City not only in Metro Manila but in the entire Philippines which Marikina was the first local government to set as Hall of Famer in that category awarded by the Philippine government. The most recent and most prestigious award received the city of Marikina was the Most Competitive Metro City in the Philippines from the prestigious Asian Institute of Management (AIM) Policy Research Center, Asia Foundation, International Labour Organization (ILO), German Technical Foundation, and Konrad Adenauer Stiflung, and the Continuing Excellence Award in Local Governance given by the Galing Pook Foundation, DILG, Local Government Authority and the Ford Foundation. Marikina was the first local government in the Philippines that has been honored with the prestigious Global 500 Roll Of Honour of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP). Marikina also placing one of the Most Healtiest and Livable City in Asia-Pacific region. It won over 150 awards and recognitions, both local and abroad, in a span of just 15 years. Marikina has become an ideal location for industry, business, commerce and for residences. Marikina was also one of the host cities of the recent 23rd Southeast Asian Games in the Philippines which held the women's football event at the Marikina Sports Park.
<br />At the end of the paper, I should be able to unveil some of the best practices behind the success of Marikina City.
<br />
<br /><strong>2.0. Literature Review: </strong>
<br /><strong>
<br /></strong>The literature that I will be reviewing onmy way of writing this dissertation will be classified into the following:
<br />
<br /><strong>2.1. Official Marikina Data</strong>
<br /></strong>
<br />We will look for the official city data released annually by the city hall and their different departments such as annual reports, state of the city address, audited financial statements, COA Reports, etc. This will provide the research with official statistics.
<br />
<br /><strong>2.2. Non – Official Marikina Data</strong>
<br />
<br />In order to serach for the hamane but factual side of the story, the research has to read publications and articles about Marikina during the Fernando Administration. These materials will include the internal publications of the city hall such as books, factbooks,leaflets, community newspapers, speaches, and others. These will also include articles related to Marikina from local and international publications. Another source of data for this cluster are those we can find in the internet such as the Wikipedia and other websites.
<br />
<br /><strong>2.3. Public Adminstration Data</strong>
<br />
<br />In order to have a public administration data that had been thoroughly reviewed, we will use the book of H. George Frederickson and Kevin B. Smith entitled Public Administration Primer. This publication already made critical analysis on the different theories of public administration. If necessary, we may refer to other publications that specializes on specific theories in instances where there is a need to dig deeper on a specific theory.
<br />
<br /><strong>3.0. Methodology: </strong>
<br /><p><strong>3.1. Note about the Writer and his probable bias:</strong></p><p>The writer of this paper has experiential knowledge of both Marikina and the Fernandos – having grown in Marikina, been allied, then opposition then allied again of the Fernandos in the span of 18 years. The intention of this paper is to document the case of Marikina under the Fernando Administration with the view of the different sectors. The primary sources of this paper are the experiential knowledge of the author as an objective participant of Marikina Case, the interviews to the different sectors, the focused group discussions, purposeful sampling surveys. The paper was able to arrive at with a ground level data and patterns from which conclusions can be formed. The primer of public administration theory will provide a framework of evaluation. Part of the study is to find out if the Fernandos used reflective thinking on an emerging circumstances or if they were guided by a ready sets of public administration theories or consultants with preconceived packaged of theories. </p><p><strong>3.2. The overall approach of the study:</strong> </p><p>This dissertation aims to validate the relationship of public administration theories and practices, with Marikina City as the case in point and the author as the experiential observer. Topic:The “Marikina Way”, the Case of the Fernando Administration in the Lens of the Public Administration Theories.</p><p>Questions: </p><p><strong>Factual:</strong> </p><p>1. What are the innovations that happened during the 18 years of the Fernando Administration in Marikina? </p><p><strong>Researchable:</strong> </p><p>2. Is the case of Marikina a result of reflective reaction to emerging situation or a studied application of a discipline in public administration?
<br />3. What are the concepts and lessons learned from the field studies in Marikina?
<br />4. What are the perceptions of the different sectors on the Fernando administration? </p><p><strong>3.3. Research Problems:</strong> </p><p>1. What are the innovations (tagged collectively as Marikina Way) initiated during the time of former Marikina Mayor Bayani Fernando and current Mayor Marides Fernando? This can be pursued through secondary data reviews and survey.
<br />2. What are the key theories of public administration as per the writings of H. George Frederickson? This can be achieved by thorough reading and simplification of his theories in his book.
<br />3. Among the Innovations in Marikina Way, which of them will fall in some specific theories discussed by Ferederickson? This can be achieved by coming out with a Matrix:
<br />

<br />6. Is the Fernando Administration a result of an “Eclectic approach” in public administration, like the Marikina Way, applying public administration theories selectively in governing a City that resulted in a positive way?</p><p><strong>3.4. Case Study #1: Marikina Shoe Industry</strong> </p><p>The study hopes to show the main features of Marikina shoe industry, which is operating in a business concept of clustering. The industry encountered some problems lately, brought about by cheaper shoes from china and Vietnam. The entry is facilitated by the opening of the market resulting from the Philippine entry to the GATT.Because this study talks about policy options, one set of audience for this paper is the legislators. The study also wishes to address government agencies like the Department of Finance which has a jurisdiction of the imposition of tariff. The Office of the President is a good audience for this project since it can decide on the issues of tariff. The local government of Marikina and the local shoe industry are also the target audience of this study since they can initiate lobby to the government. One of the research questions is what is the proper policy options to save the shoe industry of Marikina. In the absence of a better option and given the present condition, what can the shoe manufacturers do to survive? </p><p><strong>3.5. Case Study #2: Kabayani Party</strong> </p><p>Kabayani Party was organized by the Fernando Family as a local party but is attached with the ruling Lakas Kampi CMD. It was meant to provide flexiblity in political alignments. It was able to organize itself effectively winning major fights in Marikina politics. </p><p><strong>3.6. Case Study # 3: The Fernando Family</strong> </p><p>The Fernando family came from the Angkan ng Fernando in Marikina with one of its great great descendants was a governadocillo. In the modern times, it was Mayor Gil Fernando who strengthens the family. His son Bayani Fernando further consolidated the clan and later his wife, Marides Fernando, who is the sitting Mayor further strengthen the family's grip on Marikina'a politics. Bayani Fernando has no son. He has one daughter, a 23 - year - old Tala Fernando who was educated in the US.</p><p><strong>3.7. Case Study #4 : The Typhoon Ondoy</strong> </p><p>Few months before the end of the term of the Fernandos, a history - breaking typhoon put Marikina in an epicenter of a big flood that brought deaths and destruction to properties.

<br /><strong>4.0. Anticipated Findings:</strong>
<br />
<br />The Marikina Way, which described the case of Marikina under the Fernandos is a convergence of good timing (LGC, IRA, national growth), character traits of the leaders (Bayani and Marides Fernando) and a series of judgment calls, decisions and innovations based on the proper appraisal of the situations. The Fernandos got their management styles from their business experiences in the corporate world which to some extent has overlap on public administration concepts. Using the array of public administration theory as a lens of their effectiveness is one way of validating the public administration theories on the ground. There are semblances of usage of public administration theories but they were not derived thru formal education; Bayani Fernando being a mechanical engineer and Marides Fernando being a BS Tourism graduate. One thing noticeable is the couple does not stick to one public administration discipline (e.g. new public administration, etc.). In the area of decision making, the Fernando's seem to follow common sense and satisficing concepts of Herbert Simon. For instance,during the early years of the term of Engr. Bayani Ferrnando as the Mayor of Marikina City (now the MMDA Chairman), he introduced the concept of “by administration”. In doing public works. “By administration”, is the antinomy of contracting - out. It means the government will be the one to do public works that are usually done by the private contractors. The result of Bayani Fernando’s ‘by administration” approach is tremendous. The Marikina government was able to build more roads and other infrastructures given a certain budget. One reason for this is that the profit margins that could have gone to the contractors are added to the budget. Also, the corruption side or the “tongpats” that usually goes to the corrupt government officials are also added to the budget. Ballpark estimates roughly peg a cool 30 to 40 percent is added to the budget by just implementing the “by administration” concept.
<br />The cases presented showed us a declining shoe industry despite the many achievements of the city. The industry is affected by the entry of cheaper footwear from China and Vietnam as a result of WTO - GATT where the Philippines is one of the signatories. The case on Kabayani showed us that local party can be at times, more effective than the national parties when it comes to exacting result and discipline. The case of the Fernando family, which started from Mayor Gil Fernando, to Bayani and Marides - and maybe in the future, Tala Fernando, is a case when poltical dynasty can be tolerated in some instance. Despite of the success of the Fernando administration in running Marikina government, the survey showed pockets of resistance and dissatisfaction.
<br />
<br /><strong>5.0. Anticipated Conclusion:</strong> </p><p>From the primary data (interviews, FGD, and surveys) to secondary data (review of literature), some conclusion had been deduced from Marikina Way: That a local government in the Philippines has a better chance of progressing under the decentralized Philippine government set up. Good leadership, management style and decision making based on reflective thinking is part of a strong foundation of LGU governance. Public administration theories are good basis in evaluating the public soundness of innovation, but its mastery is or non mastery by an LGU leader will not hamper a leader from doing good. A reflective and eclectic management style based on emerging circumstances can be a better tool rather than boxing oneself in a certain discipline in public administration. The paper documented the eclectic approach of getting judgmentally the applicable theories and concepts and applying it to the ground level, in that case, a local government unit Marikina City. The proposition is this, just like in a garbage can theory, if an organization was able to select and apply the most appropriate theory given the circumstances of the organization, then, the result will be good. The trick on this assumption is to be able to know when to apply the and where. This by itself requires talent and value judgment.

Context<br /><br />The Philippines considers its membership in the World Trade Organization as important. It has a permanent mission to WTO headed by Manuel Teehankee. It recognizes the value of the WTO’s achievements in fostering a more open, transparent, predictable and competitive environment. Member since 1995, the Philippines made substantial commitments on market access and at the same time continued to consolidate the liberalisation programme under the Tariff Reform Program, undertaken unilaterally since the 1980s.<br />In 1995 the Philippines acceded to the WTO in the belief that its membership of the rules-based body would bring about economic benefits, primarily to the rural sector, through increased efficiency of industries required by exposure to global competition. Jobs were promised and new industries were expected to emerge. But these things did not happen. The country completed implementation of its commitment under the Information Technology Agreement with the issuance of Executive Order 395 on 31 December 2004 eliminating the duty on certain sensitive IT products.<br />The agriculture is a major component of the Philippines economy, accounting for 21.5% of its gross domestic product (GDP),<a name="fntext1"></a> generating exports amount at over US$1.5 billion,<a name="fntext2"></a> and providing one third of all employment, or 11 million jobs.<a name="fntext3"></a> Its contribution increases when ‘all economic activities related to agro-processing and supply of non-farm agricultural inputs are included because the agricultural sector broadly defined accounts for about two-thirds of the labor force and 40% of GDP’.<a name="fntext4"></a> The importance of this sector makes it necessary for the government to have a stakeholder-based process that will render legitimacy not only to its domestic economic policies but to its international economic commitments as well, such as to the WTO. The Philippines is a member of the G33 bloc of the WTO that has been lobbying for concessions in agricultural trade reforms, particularly limited exceptions from liberalization of some products. Yet in 1995 the government actually implemented an agricultural liberalization program that was far beyond what was formally required under the WTO’s Agreement on Agriculture. For instance, average agricultural tariffs were slashed by two-thirds from 28 percent in 1995 to just 9 percent in 2004. There was a similar eagerness in industry with industrial tariffs slashed by four-fifths from 14 percent to 3 percent in the same period.<br /><br /><br />2.0. Purpose and Objectives of the Analysis<br /><br />2.1.To present background information in the Philippines participation in the WTO – GATT that could be helpful in coming out with issues that will relevant in the formulation of policies and government strategies.<br /><br />2.2.To be able to know the perspective of different sectors – NGOs, government and WTO – that are relevant in the formulation of policies and strategies with the interest of the country and its people as the main consideration.<br /><br />2.3. To be able to present policy options for the Philippines to take and come out with recommendations on which of the policy options to take.<br /><br /><br />3.0. Timing<br /><br />3.1.The paper should determine the membership of the Philippines in the different committees of the WTO. Identification of the Philippine delegates and staff in the committees is important for the proper coordination for proper coordination and lobbying.<br /><br />3.2.The paper should also list the schedule of meetings of the different committees of WTO and the reports they require, including conferences.<br /><br />3.3. This paper should also list the different WTO related international alliances where the Philippines are included, such as, ASEAN, Cairns Group, G-110, G-20, G-33, and NAMA – 11, the point person of the Philippine government and the schedule of meetings within the next 12 months.<br /><br />3.4. The paper should also list the government offices and official point persons that are involved in the negotiations in the WTO.<br /><br />3.5. This should also include the different scheduled meetings within the next 12 months of the different government offices and officials related to WTO, including consultations with the legislative branches of government, industry sectors, and NGOs.<br /><br />3.6. To determine the synchronization of dates for more effective advocacy of our national interest with regards to WTO and GATT concerns.<br /><br />3.7. The listings can be in the form of attachments to the main paper.<br /><br />3.8. If problems for securing the data happen, an endorsement from a congressman will be secured to facilitate the release of the data, which after all, is of public interest.<br /><br />4.0. Audience<br /><br />4.1. The primary set of audience of this paper is the members of the<br />Philippine Permanent Mission to the World Trade Organization.<br />Hopefully, they will be able to pick some relevant issues and strategies<br />that will make them more effective in working for the interest of the<br />Filipino people.<br /><br />4.2. Another set primary audience is the government agencies and policy<br />makers that are involved with the WTO – GATT. Hopefully, they are<br />able to back staff effectively the permanent representatives of the<br />country to the WTO.<br /><br />4.3. Another set of primary audiences will be the legislators – the senate<br />and the House of Representatives, specially the relevant committees of<br />these bodies with the hope that they will be able to pick up some<br />relevant issues related to the WTO-GATT in their legislative activities.<br /><br />4.4. The secondary audience will be the industry sectors that are affected<br />by the WTO – GATT, hoping that the policy analysis will help them in<br />their advocacy works.<br /><br />4.5. Another set of secondary audience are the NGOs and other advocacy<br />Groups that are connected with the WTO-GATT and globalization<br />issues.<br /><br />4.6. Finally, the last set of secondary audience is the general public; after<br />all, they have the right to information.<br /><br />5.0. Research Methodology<br /><br />After preparing a broad outline of the policy paper, the researcher can proceed with basically two general sources of data.<br /><br />5.1. Primary Data (direct observations, surveys, interviews, focused group discussion and informal talks);<br /><br />5.1.1. Direct Observation – observations will be done on the field in both household and industries affected by WTO – GATT such as some farming families in the rural areas and some affected industries.<br /><br />5.1.2. Interviews - both structured and free wheeling interviews will be done on at least two sets of the following: agricultural farms, fishing villages, small cottage industries, big industries, and members of the Philippine Permanent mission to WTO, government officials involved with the WTO-GATT (DFA and DTI), NGOs, Advocacy Groups and WTO officials. Both homogenous and deviant set of respondents will be interviewed.<br /><br />5.1.3. Surveys – using different sets respondents from among the farms, fishing villages, Philippine mission to WTO, government officials, NGOs, advocacy groups and WTO officials, a survey will be conducted to know their opinion on several issues: agricultural subsidy (local and foreign), tariff, charter change on economic provisions, protecting the local industries, is WTO – GATT good for the country?, Why? Why Not? What are the advocacy issues of the country within WTO – GATT? What else should we advocate? Why are they important? Plus some other issues that will prop up in the course of primary and secondary research. Basically, a homogenous sampling will be done among the sets of respondents, but in addition, a set of deviant sampling will be done to know extreme opinions on some issues.<br /><br />5.1.4. Focused Group Discussion – another set of respondents from among the farms, fishing villages, Philippine mission to WTO, government officials, NGOs, advocacy groups and WTO officials will be invited for a focused group discussion on same issues stated above hoping that their face to face interactions in the FGD will sharpen their appreciation of the issues.<br /><br />5.1.5. The FGD will use the Problem Tree and Objective Tree as a way of analyzing the Philippines and its participation in the WTO – GATT.<br /><br />5.1.6. The FGD, in another session, will identify options, rate the criteria, subject the options to the rated criteria and come out with ranking of options from best to worst. The criteria to be rated will be: cost, equity, political, administrative and technical and effectiveness. It is in this portion that the session will become quantitative.<br /><br />5.1.7. The FGD will make recommendations based on their exchange of ideas, problem tree and objective tree and analysis of the options.<br /><br />5.1.8. Informal talks - will be done with professors, NGO leaders and some selected government officials involved with WTO – GATT to know their off the cup take on some issues.<br /><br /><br />5.2 Secondary Data (websites, official government files, books, thesis, researches, dissertations, annual reports, proceedings, programs, newsletters, publications, catalogues, handbooks, cases, lectures, and guidelines)<br /><br />5.2.1. Google Search on websites that talks about Philippine WTO –<br />GATT issues. Avoid Google deep search because it will be<br />limiting the search.<br /><br />5.2.2. Request for official reports of the Philippines to WTO –<br />GATT. Before asking for copies of the reports and files, try<br />Googling them first if they are available in the internet. If the<br />report is not given by the staff for reasons of confidentiality,<br />request a sympathetic congressman to send a note asking for<br />the reports.<br /><br />5.2.3. Go to UP Library and any other library and index some<br />important books that talks about Philippines WTO-GATT<br />issues. Then read them and take down notes, noting the<br />pages for footnotes.<br /><br />5.2.4. Try to scan the library for thesis and dissertations written<br />about the Philippines WTO – Issues.<br /><br />5.2.5. Try to scan the concerned government offices, office of the<br />Philippine Permanent Representatives to WTO – GATT, WTO<br />office in the country, NGOs and libraries for researches,<br />annual reports, proceedings, programs, newsletters,<br />publications, catalogues, handbooks, cases, lectures, and<br />guidelines.<br /><br />6.0. Bias<br /><br />Bias must be recognized and inputted in the research, such as:<br /><br />6.1. The members of the Philippine Permanent mission to WTO are expected to be pro – WTO because they had been acclimatized to the WTO environment<br /><br />6.2. The Officers of the government agencies back staffing the country mission are also more “pro-establishments”.<br /><br />6.3. The NGOs may be or maybe not pro WTO defending on their funding agencies<br /><br />6.4.

Dulay, AB (UP), MDM (AIM)<br />Consultant, Office of the Mayor, Marikina City<br /><br />A general impression is that students who take doctoral studies are so conceptual, they exist in the ivory tower and lacks savvy in the ground level. As in the garbage can theory, these students have the “collection of choices looking for problems, issues and feelings looking for decision situation in which they might be aired, solution looking for issues to which they might be the answered and decision makers waiting for work.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn1" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1">[1]</a> The trick therefore is to make some sense of what these students know by way of making them relevant and doable to the ground level, on concerns that matters on the daily lives. This paper therefore wishes to connect a theoretical public administration concept like decision making to a grounded concept like purchasing.<br />Unfortunately, the term purchasing is not even in the book of H. George Frederickson, The Public Administration Theory Primer, basing on its index, despite the fact that purchasing is very important part of any organization, or said negatively, it is the main source of corruption in most organizations. This leads me to a conclusion that there is an intellectual culture in the doctoral studies of public administration that seem to be avoid clear – cut and mundane topics in favor of fuzzy and speculative concepts, a case of trying to appear sophisticated in the midst of clear - cut discourse, which at its extreme worst, borders on intellectual dishonesty.<br />The closest thing to purchasing discussed in the said book is contracting out. “In the last fifteen years, a steadily increasing percentage of public activities are carried out “indirectly” by contractors and for virtually every conceivable government functions. The work of public administration is increasingly ….management of contracts.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn2" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2">[2]</a><br />One thing noticeable however in the discussion of contracting out concept in the book is that it seems to be independent or stand alone from purchasing management when in fact, a portion of purchasing management is the processing and the awarding of contracts.<br />Anyway, for the purpose of this paper, purchasing of goods or services is synonymous to contracting out in simpler sense since both of them require a third party to do the job - provide services, or goods to the government in exchange for a sum of money. I need to intentionally simplify the concept to pull down the discussion from the ivory tower to the ground level. I will not even attempt to touch on the legal side of purchasing because it may hinder my discourse trying to fit this paper into the legalities. This is more true in the Philippine context where bureaucratic capture is strongly probable, making our laws a piece of paper with full of loopholes and are designed to be broken.<br />In the recent Senate hearing for instance about the ZTE Deal, the star witness Jun Lozada, a management practitioner, said that there is a dysfunctional purchasing management in the Philippines, (maybe he is referring to the top level government purchasing). The dysfunction is rooted on the fact that projects here are supplier driven rather than buyer driven. Furthermore, projects are decided by people like him, Consultants, who are not direct accountability to the people.<br /><br />Purchasing operations as defined in the management books<br />As stated in my objectives, this paper seeks to bring down the public administration concept to the ground level and this can be done by benchmarking my concepts and terminology on mainstream management textbooks. “Purchasing management refers to all activities required to manage supplier relationships. It is focused on structuring and continuous improvement of the purchasing process within the organization and between the organization and its suppliers. Purchasing management, hence, has an internal aspect and external aspect. The idea behind purchasing management is that if suppliers are not managed by their customers, the customers relations will be managed by the suppliers”.<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn3" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3">[3]</a> Put in the current lingo, the purchasing management of a certain country is not buyer driven, it will become supplier driven. Therefore, it is necessary that the Marikina City Hall for instance, or any public organizations for that matter should be on top of the purchasing process and should dictate the tempo in order to squeeze the suppliers with the best deal for the lowest cost for the good of the government and by extension, of the people. The purchasing process should be mastered and reviewed regularly to avoid connivance between the agents of the suppliers and the agents of the buyers, because connivance is the breeding ground for capitulation or corruption.<br /><br />The Importance of Purchasing Management and Contracting out<br />If we look at contracting - out as engaging the non-government sector to perform traditional services being done by the public sector in a relatively bigger scale than before, then, contracting - out is threading on a policy level issue and not merely on the technical level of purchasing management. Is the policy of contracting - out good for governance? Without the corruption in the technical level purchasing, contracting - out is maybe less costly and even more efficient because the buyer (government) can squeeze the best out of the suppliers in terms of quality and timeliness. It will also prevent the bloating of personnel since there will be no regular employment obligation between the buyer and the personnel of the suppliers. The burden of providing regular employment to the workers is transferred from the buyers to the suppliers ”In abstract and theoretical sense, it is argued that contracting out should allow managers to focus on goal setting, performance standards and policy framing – referred to in the popular literature as steering and leave the contractors to do the rowing.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn4" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4">[4]</a> Contracting may result in further hollowing of the government and relatively, strengthening of the non government sector and the international community. Is this a good phenomenon? The answers to this will depend upon what kind of lens are one is using. For “no matter how compelling and relentless the “here and now”, the daily world of administration, its underlying nature and broad aims, are always open to conflicting views. In short, what the field “is” (or should be), depends on the lookers.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn5" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5">[5]</a> If one is using the lens of the state, contracting out will not lead to a tightly controlled administrative apparatus and therefore is not good. Using the lens of the market, contracting out is good because it would mean bigger possibility of cornering a contract from the government. From the lens of civil society, contracting out is good because it will entail greater and more direct public involvement. What is therefore the best lens to look from? The basic logic of the now popular Balance Score Card approach is the way to go, meaning, the notion of contracting - out should be viewed through the lens of an integrated public governance, which “assumes that dispersed public action must remain integrated from the standpoint of the government’s central role and administration ‘s involvement is that role.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn6" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6">[6]</a> All we need to do from here is to go back to the basic, which the government is one of the four elements of the state, in addition to sovereignty, territory and population. Abandoning government’s role is just like abandoning the state, which in the long run will lead to either a stateless society or a world government.<br />During the early years of the term of Engr. Bayani Ferrnando as the Mayor of Marikina City (now the MMDA Chairman), he introduced the concept of “by administration”. In doing public works. “by administration”, is the antinomy of contracting - out. It means the government will be the one to do public works that are usually done by the private contractors. The result of Bayani Fernando’s ‘by administration” approach is tremendous. The Marikina government was able to build more roads and other infrastructures given a certain budget. One reason for this is that the profit margins that could have gone to the contractors are added to the budget. Also, the corruption side or the “tongpats” that usually goes to the corrupt government officials are also added to the budget. Ballpark estimates roughly peg a cool 30 to 40 percent is added to the budget by just implementing the “by administration” concept.<br />But whether one will do contracting out or “by administration”, a good purchasing management is a must because “an analysis of the cost structure of manufacturing companies immediately shows the importance of purchasing to organizations. In general, the largest part of the cost of goods sold is approximately 50%. If the other business costs, which have important purchasing component are added to the purchasing value, the total amounts to approximately 68%.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn7" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn7" name="_ftnref7">[7]</a><br />Since a good purchasing management had been determined as a requirement for good governance - whether contract - out or by administration - then organizations might as well focus on the mastering the universal purchasing process, which is as follows:<br />STEPS<br />ROLE<br />ELEMENTS<br />DOCUMENTS<br />1. Define specifications<br /><br />Get specification<br />1.Funstional specifications<br /><br />2.Technical changes<br /><br />3. Bring supplier knowledge to engineering<br />1.Functional specification<br /><br />2.norm/spec control<br />2. Select supplier<br /><br />Assure adequate supplier selection<br />1.

Supplier ranking scheme<br />Figure 1: Six Steps in Purchasing Management<br /><br /> Take note that Steps #1 and #2 of Figure 1: Six Steps in Purchasing Management will require the steps in Figure 2: Steps in Decision Making<br /><br />Decision Making in Purchasing Management<br />Based on the above purchasing process, the most important part (as well as the most prone to corruption) is Step #3: Contract Agreement, which is the step where the buyer (Marikina City Hall for instance) will have to prepare, negotiate and award the contract. This is the stage where corruption occurs, because it is in this stage, particularly the negotiation stage, where the “tongpats”, “bukols” are being negotiated. A real corrupt government unit can start as early as in Step #2 by eliminating other suppliers and accrediting only one. So, if one sees that there is only one supplier in the bidding, it should already attract attention as probable site of a “killing”. A real advance corrupt government will go as far as Step # 1 by playing with specifications and making sure that only one supplier will qualify. The ZTE deal has the making of this advance state of corruption when the loan release from the China government specifies that ZTE will get the contract.<br />In a backdrop of a corrupt government, good decision making will not work, because the prerequisite for a good decision making procedure will be diluted. But let us work on a normal scenario where corruption is under control. Under this scenario, Step #3 is very important because “a decision is a choice from among the available alternatives. Decision making is the process of developing and analyzing alternatives and making a choice.” Dessler,p108. This is a management textbook definition appears to be very clear - cut, a hallmark of management academic discipline and devoid of fuzzy and speculative “ifs and buts” which on the other hand seems to be the prevailing culture, at least, in the doctoral level of public administration. This culture of fuzzy “ifs and buts” might breed graduates who know a lot data and information, who know a lot of rationalizations but are not well verse in decision making and implementation. I remember a staff of mine who was good in rationalization (explanation why something can not be done) and another staff who is good on how to do a thing. Guess who became successful later on their careers?<br />As a further criticism to the culture of the doctoral level public administration study, it seems that our culture is “clear-cut averse”, meaning avoidance of a straight line definition and categorization in favor of seemingly sophisticated but patently intellectually dishonest environment of hiding from among so many fuzzy “ifs and buts” to the point of not arriving to the consensus or definite conclusion. To some academicians, not arriving to the consensus, or to a universal “best way” in the tradition of time and motion study on Frederick Taylor, is a perfect educational experience or a manifestation of democracy, but to the practitioners of decision making, this is the height of training for indecisiveness. We are training rubble rousers, not honest and efficient administrators, by mixing the concept of democracy and efficiency. Just to add to my observation, let me show you a definition of decision making that has been indexed by Frederickson himself in his book under “decision making”. “The bureaucratic decision rules hypothesis……holds that government services are allocated according to rules formulated in the bureaucracy. Most research on urban service delivery tends to reject the underclass hypothesis and the elections hypothesis and to support the bureaucratic decision rules hypothesis.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn8" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn8" name="_ftnref8">[8]</a> It seems indeed that our doctoral culture tends to encourage fuzzy reactions to a fuzzy statements, accepting them as very profound and sophisticated, until the whole system has been buried into the avalanche of fuzzy concepts reaching to the symbolical question of Gary Wamsley, as away of a title to his book: “From Reorganizing to Reinventing: Sixty Years and “We Still Don’t Get It”.<br />After criticizing badly the intellectual culture of the academic discipline that I intend to have a doctorate degree with, and with due apology, I wish to remain clear - cut by defining the steps in decision making, to wit;<br />STEPS<br />DESCIPTION<br />1.Identification of a problem<br /> Decision making is just a part of problem solving. You decide to do a certain alternative because you want to address a problem. A problem exists went her is a gap between a desirable or a necessary situation with the actual situation,<br /><br />2. Identification of a decision criteria<br /> Simply put, one has to put the basis from which to select the best among the given alternatives. Without the criteria, one will have no basis why it selected an alternative. Criteria must be universally proper and must be known to all stakeholders.<br />3.Allocation of weights to the criteria<br /> The weight will show the value system, or what is important to the organization and to decision makers. The weights should follow the rule of probability, that is, the summation of all the probabilities of the weights of all criteria should be equal to one.<br />4.Develop alternatives<br /> “Whether we are choosing between alternative plans, job, candidates, cars or computers, the existence of some choice is a prerequisite to effective decision making. In fact, when a manager has no choice, there really isn’t any decision to make.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn9" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn9" name="_ftnref9">[9]</a><br /><br />5.Analyze the alternatives<br /> <br /> Analysis may go quantitative when dealing with cost, price or profit. Contrary to some impression, values can be analyzed quantitatively by way of weighted ranking. This is one of the highlights of this paper, the reconciliation of Herbert’s facts orientation and Waldo’s value orientation in decision making, into a clear – cut mathematical model.<br />6.Make a choice<br /> This is the decision making part, selecting the best from among the given alternatives using the set criteria.<br />7.Implementation of the decided alternatives<br /> A decision is useless if it is not implemented. Although one can also argue that to implement a decision or not to implement is in itself a decision.<br />8.Evaluation of decision effectiveness<br /> Evaluation is necessary to see if the decision is good and the implementation of the decision is efficient. The decision making steps can be considered a cycle. After the evaluation, one can go back to step #1 or review step #7, and then prescribe a better one.<br />Figure 2: Eight Steps in Decision Making<br /><br />Take note that from Step # 1 to Step #6, the sequence is called decision making. From Step #1 to Step # 8, the sequence is called problem solving. From Step #1 to Step# 4, the sequence is called structuring the problem. Step #5 is called analyzing the problem. Step # six is making a decision. Analysis can be qualitative and quantitative. Also take note that Figure 1: Six Steps in Purchasing Management, are regular activities being done by most big organizations. It is usually headed by a senior manager. Figure 2: Eight Steps in Decision Making can be a part of Figure 1, especially in deciding to which supplier a certain contract will be awarded.<br /><br />Herbert Simon’s Idea on Decision Making<br />The first time I encountered the name Herbert Simon was in the subject I am teaching in the university, mathematical modeling in the Quantitative Approach to Decision Making. As a way of encouraging my students to use mathematical modeling sparingly, I keep on quoting Simon who said that mathematical model need not be perfect. It only has provide data for decision making that are slightly better than what one could have got had one used mere common sense. I thought then that Simon is one of us, a true blue management guy. When I enrolled in my doctorate in public administration, I realized that Simon is an icon in public administration. When I was assigned in the class to report on Simon, I discovered that Simon’s Nobel Prize is on economics. The more I know Herbert Simon, the more omnipresent he is in the different academic disciplines.<br />There are lots of topics in which Simon has expounded, but on this paper, I will only touch on two of his important concepts that have relevance on decision making: bounded rationality and satisficing.<br /><br />Rational versus Bounded Rationality<br /><br />“Managers, says decision - making expert Herbert Simon, have to juggle so many problems and assimilate so much information that even an approximation to complete rationality is hard to achieve.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn10" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn10" name="_ftnref10">[10]</a> That is why, “decision making as it is portrayed in Administrative Behavior is purposeful but not rational. Rational decision making involve a comprehensive specification of all possible outcomes, in order to choose the single alternative action that is best – but such comprehensive calculation is not possible. In this way, Simon introduced his well – known on limits to human rationality. Administrative theory, he argued, must be concerned with the limits of rationality, and the manners in which organizations affects those limits. Organization makes it possible to make decisions because they constrain the rest of alternatives to be considered and the consideration that can be trusted as relevant. Organization can be improved by improving the ways in which these limits are defined and imposed.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn11" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn11" name="_ftnref11">[11]</a> Looking at Figure 2: Eight Steps in Decision Making, bounded rationality can be applied in structuring the problem sequence, meaning Steps #1 to #4. In effect, putting limitations on the number of alternatives and on the criteria means that one is putting the boundary to the structure of the problem, which will make decision making lot easier and doable.<br /><br /><br /><br />Satisficing versus Optimizing<br />“A particular important difference between the rational and the bounded rational decision making is this: the rational manager continues to review solution until he or se finds the optimal choice, while in contrast, managers in practice often “satisfice.” To satisfice means that managers in practice tend to be concerned with just discovering and selecting satisfactory alternatives, and only in exceptional cases with finding optimal alternatives. This is not to say that managers don’t try to be rational; it is simply recognizing the fact that, in practice, their attempts to be rational will be limited or “bounded” by the sort of decision-making barriers.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn12" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn12" name="_ftnref12">[12]</a> Searching for optimal solution through lots of data and information gathering and analysis will lead to phenomenon of ‘paralysis of analysis’ , meaning, one can not simply move on to decision making and implementation stage because one is bugged down on making too complicated analysis. In the real word, time is of the essence - time is gold. Losing time through rational decision making’s optimal solution is a waste of resources. Successful managers are those who have the knock to decide based on limited available information.<br /><br />Dwight Waldo’s Take on Decision Making<br />If we try to simplify Simon and Waldo, just for memory aid, using Waldonians antinomies, Simon appears to be positivists, or in a common lingo, quantitative. Waldo appears to be more qualitative. Simon is closer to facts while Waldo is closer to values. In fact, Waldo linked “public administration to the history of ideas, and challenged the field to consider other form of inquiry as reliable criteria to decision making and action.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn13" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn13" name="_ftnref13">[13]</a> Waldo is reacting to the extreme fascination of Herbert Simon to positivism and facts. Waldo objects to the idea that efficiency is a value neutral concept. He “believes that here is no realm of ‘factual decisions “from which values are excluded. To decide is to choose between alternatives; to choose between alternatives is to introduce values.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn14" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn14" name="_ftnref14">[14]</a> In a way, Simon argued with Waldo that facts and values can co – exist in decision making when he wrote in response to Waldo: ” no one who has studied seriously the writing of logical positivists, or my own discussion of facts and values in Administrative Behavior, could attribute to us the “proposition that there are “value decisions” and “factual decisions.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn15" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn15" name="_ftnref15">[15]</a> Although they traded intellectual insults, only few scholars have highlighted the fact that Simon and Waldo has no major disagreement on this, that facts and values can be co equal tools in decision making.<br /><br />A decision making Mathematical Model that reconciles the debates of Simon and Waldo Over Facts and Values, call it “Marikina Model of Decision Making.”<br /><br />Six Important Characteristics of the “Marikina Decision Making Mode”l:<br />It applies bounded rationality rather than optimal rationality.<br />It adopts the concept of satisficing.<br />Facts (Simon) and values (Waldo) are recognized as co equal requirements for coming out with decisions.<br />Uses the Eight Steps in Decision Making.

The paper documented the eclectic approach of getting judgementally the applicable theories and concepts and applying it to the ground level, in that case, a local government unit Marikina City. The proposition is this, just like in a garbage can theory, if an organization was able to select and apply the most appropriate theory given the circumstances of the organization, then, the result will be good. The trick on this assumption is to be able to know when to apply the and where. This by itself requires talent and value judgment.<br />Apparently, the public administration theories and concepts that had been applied in Marikina is the right eclectic pick. “Proof positive of the city's standing in the league of <a title="Metropolitan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolitan">metropolitan</a> cities in the <a title="Philippines" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippines">Philippines</a> are the numerous awards and citations that have been bestowed.

Am I so enamored with my hometown that I always make it a point to name a cooked up concept and name after it? Actually, my objective is more on branding. Just like a recipe – one puts together several ingredients and cooks them in a certain way and calls it paella with French sounding name and charge scandalous price for those pieces of onions, rice and garlic mix with other stuff. Marikina as a brand of a concept features a certain combination of public administration concepts done in a certain way, resulting into something relevant to the ground level. Because of good result, a lot of people might be curious of its ingredients and my paper will precisely tell them those ingredients. “Public administration the Philippines undoubtedly has largely been atheoretical, ahistorical and inattentive to the development of its intellectual and ontological well – being. It a not sufficiently articulated its theoretical legacies, its conceptual foundations, or its basic normative values mainly because it has chosen to avoid or perhaps remain indifferent to introspective questions which may be all too subversive of its current fundamental commitment.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn17" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn17" name="_ftnref17">[17]</a> The boldness that I have done - the branding of a certain public administration recipe into “Marikina Way” or “Marikina Decision Making Model” is a response to the implied call of Prof. Danny Reyes to be subversive enough against the “current fundamental commitment” of the discipline. If the emerging trend of the public administration in the Philippines is towards eclectism and applying the picked concepts and theories to a ground level execution, then by all means, let the discipline flourish this way. After all, it is better to die trying than to die doing nothing.<br /><br />So, I will continue to write papers on Marikina Way, Marikina Dcision Making Model or Globalist Manifesto and hopefully, my efforts can be seen as a response to the current fundamental commitment – for or against it. At least, I contribute to the state of confusion from which will eventually evolve a discernable pattern, as in the chaos theory. An effort is better than nothing at all.<br />As a Consultant of the Mayor of Marikina City, I have vantage point of view. After studying the purchasing operations in the city hall, studying its structure which is available in the internet anyway using this website address, <a href="http://city.marikina.gov.ph/">http://city.marikina.gov.ph/</a>, I went into a realization that I should never impose “Marikina Way” or “Marikina Decision Making Model” to Marikina City Hall. I don’t want to hear people saying that “we have been successful with the way with do things and here you come telling us what to do.” If they say that, they are perfectly correct because as the Americans will say, “if it aint broke, don’t fix it.” The game plan is to popularize the brands and let people, maybe out of curiosity, ask for them.<br />“Marikina Decision Making Model” or “Marikina Way” may be viewed as a brand, like BCG Matrix, Balance Score Card, and Porter’s Framework. Reviewing the purchasing in Marikina City Hall using the model, the review will look like this:<br />STEPS<br />ROLE<br />ELEMENTS<br />DOCUMENTS<br />ANOVA FINDINGS ON MARIKINA<br />1.

It is with this same principle - a standard and analysis of variance (ANOVA) from the standard – that ISO and other accrediting organizations are doing.<br /><br />Conclusion<br />This paper has proven, through a mathematical model, that the debates of Simon and Waldo on facts and values in decision making can be reconciled. In fact, in one portion of this paper, it quoted Simon to have, in a way, agreed with Waldo’s contention that values are needed in making decision. This Waldonian argument was reflected in the mathematical model.<br />This paper has also argued that concepts and theories need not be too fuzzy and sophisticated. It has to be honest and compelling. They have to be relevant to the ground level; otherwise, they will just be useless exercise of mental calisthenics - just like playing chess for several hours only to prove that you are good in playing chess and nothing more.<br />In a way, this has also proven that mathematical modeling should never be taken as a toxic item but as something that could help in decision making. In fact, the mathematical model I presented here can be programmed into the computer. A simple Excel program can be applied here, leaving the decision makers or the BAC focused on determining the criteria and the ranking of the alternatives with regards to the criteria.<br />Looking back, if PGMA only used this model in working for the National Broadband Project, her present problem would had been avoided. But then again, the greedy groups would have missed all the “bukols” and the “tongpats”. This is really a matter of choice for the group: to moderate their greed or to moderate the opposition. Apparently, they chose the latter.<br />The “Marikina Decision Making Model”, as this paper would like to call it, is aspiring to be a brand, it is just like a recipe that offers a certain menu, of how to decide. But the author is not aspiring to push any organization, even the Marikina City Hall where he is a Consultant of the Mayor, to apply it. Strong branding, the way the author sees it, is his response to the call of Prof. Danny Reyes to challenge or energize a lethargic Public Administration discipline in the Philippines, hoping that when lots of students, faculty and practitioner of public administration have tried retooling some concepts and theories, and brand them with exotic names, it will be the start of a very vibrant market place of ideas in the public administration castle in the country.<br /><br />END<br />Annotated Bibliography of Top 10 Books, Article and Websites used in this paper:<br />Frederickson, H.

Waldo’s early career, as described by him is characterized by recurring “failed his way upward” thing. The middle years, is mostly his life at Berkeley which to him is the best years of his life as a teacher. His later years are mostly his works based on Woodrow Wilson Institute.

The author’s observation on the state of this academic discipline may appear negative to some, but most will agree that the paper is offering some challenge to the stakeholders of this academic discipline. After the introduction and purpose of the paper, it proceeded to the focus of the discipline, the perspective, a discourse on self awareness and a comprehensive review of public administration in the Philippines. The article is a nice and authoritative reading on the topic of Philippine public administration.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marikina_City">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marikina_City</a><br /> Wikipedia is a <a title="Multilingualism" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilingualism">multilingual</a>, <a title="World Wide Web" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Wide_Web">Web-based</a>, <a title="Free content" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_content">free content</a> <a title="Encyclopedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encyclopedia">encyclopedia</a> project.

Dulay, AB (UP), MDM (AIM)<br />Consultant, Office of the Mayor, Marikina City<br /><br />Introduction<br /><br />In a Yahoo Message Board based in Australia, but whose members are people from all over the world,<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn1" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1">[1]</a> it is a consensus that world government will happen; it is just a matter of time. The timing estimate differs. Some quarters believes that the world government will be formed in 2100. <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn2" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2">[2]</a> One intellectual in the crusade for the formation of a world government is Steve McIntosh, a top caliber lawyer and philosopher from Colorado, USA. He is a core group member and one of the leaders of The Globalist Manifesto Party. In his book, he said that “if you have never been exposed to integral philosophy – if you can not make meaning (even partially) at the integral level of consciousness – then the idea of global governance is just probably no that interesting. However, you know you are beginning to metabolize the values of the integral worldview when the idea of bringing about a world federation within the next fifty years begins to become very exciting.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn3" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3">[3]</a><br /><br />There are different groups of people worldwide – some are intellectuals, some are not, some are open minded, and some are not - advocating for the formation of a world government. They have different time frames for their advocacy.<br /><br />It is now probably timely that we in the academic circle should start recognizing the de facto role of the worldwide web in distilling concepts and ideas, with the active interaction of the academicians, universities and practitioners or advocates in the distilling process. The desired net effect is to be able to come up with a sound conceptual and theoretical base that will guide the humanity in its march to the global government.<br /><br />Because the crusade for the formation of global government is very heavy in the worldwide web, it is just fitting that we set the basic definition of this concept from their point of view. If one type “world government” in the Google Search, he will see 82,800,000 entries as of March 12, 2008. Out of these entries, the most visited one is an article from the Wikipedia about world government: “World government is the concept of a political body that would make, interpret and enforce <a title="International law" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_law">international law</a>. Inherent to the concept of a world government is the idea that nations would be required to pool or surrender (depending on point of view) <a title="Sovereignty" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereignty">sovereignty</a> over some areas. In effect, a world government would add another level of administration above the existing national governments or provide coordination over areas national governments are not capable of adequately addressing as independent polities. The authority granted this level and how it relates to national governments and/or citizens is debated by both adherents and opponents to world government.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn4" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4">[4]</a><br /><br />As one can see, the most dominant website in this concept is somewhat ambiguous in its definition; hence, one can conclude that there is a greater need for the academic sector to play a very important role in this defining moment of the humanities’ march to a great upheaval – towards the world government. The advocacy of this paper is for the professors and universities all over the world to lend its core competency in providing an intellectual guidance to this unfolding movement that could mean the future of the human race and the planet.<br /><br />The compelling logical urgency of this appeal for the academicians to play an active role on this advocacy goes like this: since the world government will happen anyway – with our without the help of you and me – then, the best and most responsible way to act is to face the inevitable by holding the bull by the horn. Let us prepare for it with certainty, like death and tax. Let us study it closely and with the rigors of the academic discipline. Let us discuss it in the dinning tables. Include it in the topics in the intellectual forums, debates, discussion groups, research papers, term papers, thesis and dissertations. The on going unfolding of the formation of a world government is too important to be left to chance. We in the academe should give our share to the unfolding phenomenon.<br /><br />The active participation of the academe will contribute tremendously to the enlightenment of the global public and it could prevent the emergence of a probable global despot that usually thrives well in the sea of ignorant masses. World history is full of sporadic attempts to form a world government by force. But all of them did not succeed. The Globalist Manifesto says that it is now high time to attempt the formation of global government through a different way… a complete paradigm shift from the use of force, to the use of consensus or diplomacy. Getting the consensus of the global public for the formation of a global government is easier today than in the times of Genghis Khan or Julius Caesar. The advancement of technology, specifically the phenomenon of the worldwide web, literally shrunk the territorial world and makes the clashes of ideas and passions less bloody. “Given that government is the only force left that binds most members of the contemporary society, the social science and humanist disciplines have necessarily adopted a historical perspective in their pursuit of an understanding of the government – in - society. More specifically, there is a growing need in public administration and political science for a better understanding of the past for the sake of the present and in the future.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn5" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5">[5]</a> This observation seems to support the academic justification in the attempt to put the concepts revolving around the formation of global government in the ambit of public administration and political science.<br /><br />The struggle of the advocates to put the concept of formation of a global government in the academic map via the portal of public administration seems to be a way to go. In part, world government can be subsumed as related to administrative history, and academic topic which is in the mainstream in public administration academic discipline. Other future scholars may find the proper and legitimate home for the world government concept in public administration as an academic discipline, the way for instance, bounded rationality of Herbert Simon, a very specialized topic, or some other seem – to – be - off tangent - topics have been safely welcomed in the public administration academic castle without too much ado. For after all, “administrative history in the broader sense studies different types of political organizations and the degree to which it includes the population.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn6" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6">[6]</a><br /><br />There are other probable points of entries of the concept of world government into the academic discipline of public administration. One portal is the discussion of the creation of the state, specifically the genetic logic of Woodrow Wilson in the creation of the state. We can also look at the world government as a part of a post modernist concept – a reaction to the present national government concept. After all, the advocates of post modernism have the propensity to describe the present state of a concept and propose a new one in a different angle or lens. The whole academic community accepts the approach because admittedly, it will lead, to say the least, to intellectual masturbation.<br />The formation of a world government can be viewed also as one of the manifest destinies of the on-going phenomenon academically tagged as globalization. When public administration thinkers talk about hollow and disarticulated states, which seem to be concepts that are catching like wildfire in our field of academic discipline, they are consciously or unconsciously, doing a lip service to a covert phenomenon today… of the weakening of the national government and the slowly strengthening of, what will I term as the “the world government’s invisible hands”, which will eventually deliver the human race, in the long continuum of time, into a global government.<br /><br />But then again, the formation of global government is not only a budding academic discipline; it is grounded on a hard nosed global practice with warm bodies and passionate advocates whose body counts can be empirically measured. This budding academic discipline therefore, is if I may say, an academic phenomenon by itself - profoundly intellectual yet so quantitative in some respect that in can squarely fall into the positivist portal. Take a look on the quantitative approach on the question of “what is the actual body count in the whole world of people who had been exposed in one way or another to the concept world government?” Fifty years ago, his question would have been very lunatic. Scholars who might attempt to answer this might do qualitative approaches in forecasting like Delphi method, or jury of the executive method. Today, all we need to do is to go to the leading search engines in the worldwide web like Google and Yahoo, search for topics like world government, global government, formation of a world government, The Globalist Manifesto, formation of a global government, creation of a global government, and creation of world government and look at the summarized count of the number of websites talking about these topics, do a simple mathematical summation of these websites and one will have a rough estimate of the body count. Of course this is not accurate. For one, there could be some double counting, yet there is a big probability that a sizeable mass of people all over the world who are not into the worldwide web, and therefore are not in the statistics, who are aware of the concept of world government. So, the two probabilities cancel each others out and what remains is the count of the search engines which has become more credible. This forecasting method can be subjected to lots of academic scrutiny and this in itself is one rich area in the proposed world government academic concept. If someone searches in the Google and types the words world government, 607,000,000 entries will be available. If one types global government, 466, 000,000 entries will be there. The combined numbers of the two is 1,073,000,000. The world population reached 6 billion on October 12, 1999. Therefore, the number of sites talking about global government and world government are around 1/6 of the world’s population. Or said other way, one out of six people on earth, more or less, has the idea of a global or world government. This is a potential number for an advocacy campaign.<br /><br />Simple mathematics would point that 1/6 is a big “one out of six” of the global public already aware of the global government. This is already a big critical mass for any upheaval. “It is estimated that at the time of the American Revolution, only about 10% of America’s population made meaning at the modernist level of consciousness. Yet, this was enough to bring about the unprecedented rise of continental democracy. And similarly, we can anticipate that when the integralists comprised approximately 10% of the population of the developed world, the integral world view’s political agenda for global governance may become a reality.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn7" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn7" name="_ftnref7">[7]</a><br /><br /><br />The concept of world government as an academic discipline, at least in the Philippines and possibly all over the world, is so new, almost in a pioneering level. Top professors of the University of the Philippines National College of Public Administration and Governance, (NCPAG), one of the leading academic institution in the country known for top caliber professors and above average students, have this reaction to a paper proposal on this topic submitted by a doctoral student:<br /><br />Prof. J. Prospero De Vera 111: “This is a very refreshing interest but I have to admit this is the first time I've heard it. The idea of a review of literature is good given that this is, as you said "an emerging interest". Have you preliminarily checked if there is indeed literature on the www? And is the literature substantive enough to do a review. The www has a lot of junk and I am afraid you might catch these also”.<br /><br />Dr. Danny Reyes, another well known professor said that he is uncomfortable about the topic. In fact, he rejected the topic when it was presented to him in the previous semester. The second time it was presented to him, he accepted it with reservation, saying further as his rationalization, that he does not want to be a hindrance to a possible topic that has a potential effect on a world upheaval. He even mentioned a music group whose composition was rejected by a music professor but that same music became a worldwide hit.<br /><br />Professor Reyes even allowed a discussion in the class about world government. One Saturday morning of January, in that History of Administrative Thought class of Prof. Reyes, a student Maria Victoria L. Mangaser - Garong was reporting on "Woodrow Wilson on the History of Government, A Passing Fad or Constitutive Framework for His Philosophy of Governance” by Jos C. N. Raadschelders. The reporter said that Wilson believed that state sprung from family which grew into tribe, and into larger territories. This is termed as the "genetic explanation” of state. The reporter even quoted Wilson as saying that "the government is not a machine, but a living thing. It falls not under the universe, but under the theory of organic life." Wilson said that "government is accountable to Darwin and not to Newton". At this point of the class discussion, I raised an issue: did Wilson stop his genetic explanation of the formation of the state in the level of state? I argued that following the same logic used by Wilson, the genetic march of the formation of the state will lead into the formation of different states into a world government. At this point, the class became very enthusiastic. Apparently, the logic is so clear and convincing, yet, it touched on something that is still very fresh in the academic circle ...the world government. Student Leo Hernandez agreed on the logic but he said that people of the world will only unite if an outside force from other planets will threaten the very existence of our planet or the humankind. Student Rey Chang said that the genetic theory of Wilson is already happening with globalization. Dr. Joey Montemayor said that the formation of the world government has already been prophesized in the Bible, but unfortunately, an anti - Christ will lead it. Another student argued that world government may happen because of the advent of new technology. One student said that outside planetary threats can be substituted by internal threat to mankind like global warming, terrorism, and nuclear war. One student throws another hypothetical question: if we will have a world government, who will lead it. I decided to remain silent, anxiously waiting for the final opinion of Prof. Danny Reyes, remembering that he rejected my previous semester’s paper proposal on world government. Finally, Prof. Reyes said that world government might be formed in response to a nuclear disaster being poised by the rouge states. He said that nations might unite to prevent these rouge states from creating a nuclear disaster. Prof. Reyes even explained that Wilson was the main proponent of the League of Nations and one of the reasons why it did not materialize was because the US Senate failed to ratify the treaty mandating the USA to join the league. Wilson, according to Prof. Reyes, has been at odds with the US Senate at that time. Prof. Reyes even told the class that I wanted to write a paper on world government.<br /><br />At this point in the milestone of world government, a potential academic discipline as made a touch down in the halls of the Philippine academic circle, specifically in the University of the Philippines, through Professor de Vera, in the previous semester and this semester, on Prof. Reyes’ class.<br /><br />Movements for World Government in the Philippines<br />An indication of a concept becoming popular is the existence of reviews and article about it in the libraries. So, I did check the NCPAG library for any article about world government or global government. Unfortunately, no article has been found regarding this topic in the library, which made me conclude that if a library of a leading school of governance for the country does not have any article about the topic, then, the other libraries of lesser popularity will also not have it. This made me conclude that formation of a global government, as a crusade, is not yet popular in the Philippines. World Government Institute, based in Japan, was founded in order to establish the World Government. The Institute was founded by Toshio Suzuki, webmaster of their website, on 1 May 1997. This institute is composed of branches in different part of the world. A lot of their country headquarters and presidents have not been decided yet. The branches are listed in their own branch list. No branch however has paid up yet to the international headquarters. The website of the group is administered by World Government Institute of Japan. The World Government Institute Philippines is headed by Dr. Jaime B. Ramirez and its office is at 1237 Instruccion Street, Sampaloc, Manila, Philippines. It has one volunteer staff. A check on the office does not show any activities related to the advocacy for the formation of a global government in the country. In a meeting held in Bacolod City, Philippines, of World Future Studies Federation, the need for empowerment of civil society and global government is echoed in the paper of Rakesh Kapoor, who in his paper, entitled "<a href="http://www.wfsf.org/pub/publications/Bacolod_99/Kapoor.pdf">Fast Forward to Fragmented Futures</a>" said: “We see a world today that is economically integrated but politically disunited. The most intractable problems that we may face in the future relate to destruction of the environment, nuclear war, the persistent expansion and globalization of capital, leading to distorted human relationships, on the one hand and increased economic inequalities - within and between nations - on the other. Since all these problems are of a global nature, the ideal way to be able to solve them will be the formation of a global government, which will have the political authority to mediate between and keep in check the nation-states of today.” The Globalist Manifesto, a worldwide web snowballing advocacy that started in the Philippines was started by accident. Its websites are in the top ten of both Yahoo and Alta Vista search engines in the topic of "formation of a global government" over around 7 million entries. The Globalist Manifesto is printed in basically four websites today: the original is the "global", then later it was published in "founders", "personal" and "party", all in www.geocities.com. These four often land in the top ten in both Yahoo and Alta Vista search engines over millions of other entries. The Globalist Manifesto was actually hatched in Asian Institute of Management (AIM) in the Philippines by accident when one fine morning sometime 2003 in the Master in Development Management case room, one student secretly posted a one - page essay entitled "The Globalist Manifesto" in its class bulletin board. The article was a result of an overdosed of Prof. Ed Morato's VMOKRAPISPATRES strategic planning sessions the other day. Eventually, the class (the MDM batch 14 that started the International Movement of Development Managers), created their "global" website with the full text of the manifesto in it. Unknown to the class, the word globalist, even up to now, is not even recognized by Microsoft Word spelling checker. (This is a proof that ignorance is sometimes beneficial.)<br />The first “freak accident” happened when the Google, the leading search engine in the world, placed the "global' website in the top 10 of the topic globalization for around 4 months. This singular incident is an indication of what will happen in the next four years.<br />Four years later…today, if one searches for "globalist manifesto" in Google, it will show you around 1,560 entries. (By the way, if you put " " in your search item in Google, it means advanced search, meaning you are asking Google to search the worldwide web and list the websites that talk about your search item as a single word.) In a nutshell, after four years, 1,560 websites are already talking about the Globalist Manifesto. Now if you add in your search "formation of a global government” or formation of a "world government" and "globalist manifesto", Google will list around 27, 800 websites. If one will look at the counters of the Google cache of the four websites mentioned, each of them has more than 1 million visitors in four years. In Yahoo cache, each of them has around 600, 000 visitors and around the same count in Alta Vista. Because the visitors of the three search engines are mathematically mutually exclusive, we can conclude that at least 10 million visitors worldwide have seen The Globalist Manifesto. Conservatively, at least around ten percent of them would have read it thoroughly and agreed with it completely. This means that The Globalist Manifesto has around 1 million believers worldwide as of today.What Do Some Websites Say About The Globalist Manifesto?<br /><br />“Currently, there has not been a nation to officially put forward plans for a world government, although some people do see international institutions (such as the <a href="http://www.omnipelagos.com/entry?n=international_%43riminal_%43ourt">International Criminal Court</a>, <a href="http://www.omnipelagos.com/entry?n=united_%4Eations">United Nations</a>, and <a href="http://www.omnipelagos.com/entry?n=international_%4Donetary_%46und">International Monetary Fund</a>) as the beginning elements of a world government system. An organization comprised of legislators from various nations known as <a href="http://www.omnipelagos.com/entry?n=parliamentarians_for_%47lobal_%41ction">Parliamentarians for Global Action</a> have promoted ideas of democratic global governance, though such promotion has varied in its scope and intensity during the organization's history.Capitalizing on the growing importance of worldwide web in the human civilization, a group of individuals adhering to The Globalist Manifesto<a href="http://www.geocities.com/globalistmanifesto/founders.html">[1]</a> is actively advocating for the formation of one world government, initially through the internet.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn8" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn8" name="_ftnref8">[8]</a><br /><br />“Globalization refers to a process of increasing integration between units around the world, including nation-states, households/individuals corporations and other organizations. It is an umbrella term, covering economic, trade, social, technological, cultural and political aspects, and is the opposite of deglobalization. Today, a proactive form of globalization is emerging, spawning from a drive by international corporations to loosen trade restrictions. It is the global financial firms that have been the most eager proponents of this expansion. A group of advocates from different parts of the world had been pushing for an integrated global society as envisioned in The Globalist Manifesto which is the foundation of globalism ideology.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn9" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn9" name="_ftnref9">[9]</a><br /><br />“Many believe the idea of the “new world order” originated in the early 1900s with Cecil Rhodes, who advocated that the British Empire and the United States should jointly impose a Federal World Government (with of course English as the official language) to bring about lasting world peace. Lionel Curtis, who also believed in this idea, founded the Rhodes-Milner Round Table Groups in 1909, which led to the establishment of the British based Royal Institute for International Affairs in 1919 and the U.S. based Council on Foreign Relations in 1920. The concept was further developed by Edward M. House, a close advisor to Woodrow Wilson during the negotiations to set up the League of Nations (it is unclear whether it was House or Wilson who invented the actual phrase). Another important influence was the futurist H.G. Wells, a vigorous advocate for World Government. There is a prediction that the next major historical world upheaval will emerge from the worldwide web. As a sign of the growing influence of the worldwide web in the human civilization today, a group of advocates from different parts of the world, adhering to The Globalist Manifesto, are snowballing the formation of a global political party of selected individuals for the formation of a global government. This party may or may not be influenced by “conspirators”. Their websites had been rating in the top 10 of the Yahoo and Alta Vista search engines under the topic of “formation of global government”. Some of their websites were also in the top ten in the Google search.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn10" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn10" name="_ftnref10">[10]</a><br />Perhaps at this point of this paper, the reader is already dead curious about what is that stuff written in The Globalist Manifesto that makes it snowballed by itself? The point is: in four years, a trend has been spotted that The Globalist Manifesto is evolving into one of the main literatures in the crusade for the formation of a global government, at least in the worldwide web. How far can it go? Will the trend continue or will it die down? Well, only God knows. But one thing can be said from here: that Asian Institute of Management in the Philippines hatched the seed for this potentially great upheaval in human civilization by accident. Below is the full version of the manifesto.<br />THE GLOBALIST MANIFESTO<br />"Someday, this world will be peaceful, united, educated and prosperous. There will be no war, no poverty, and no discrimination. A world able to protect itself from global warming, over consumption, nuclear disaster, pollution, acid rain, ozone layer depletion, and AIDS. A world that is able to practice sustainable development, protection of environment and responsible parenthood. There is a world future where there will be no national boundaries, no racial discrimination, nor religious fanaticism.Because every human being is a child of God, everyone is equally important and deserves to enjoy human rights, freedom, happiness and prosperity. The citizens of the world have the duty to act towards this vision, in wherever, whenever, and whatever they can within their status in life. As soon as possible, and through a democratic consensus of all nations via global plebiscite and a drafting of a global constitution through an international constitutional convention, the goal of the citizens of the world is to set up a single and unified global government with police powers, powers to tax, and has the power of eminent domain.This task is arduous and long, but there is no justification for any armed solution in pursuance of this vision. Diplomacy should be the only way.The global government will have judicial, executive, and legislative branches; a government-financed two-party system from the global presidency down to village level; with one monetary system, civil service system, electoral system and an economic system grounded on free enterprise. A global president, vice-president, a chamber of hereditary leaders and a chamber of territorial representatives will be popularly elected. The territorial divisions of the world will have governors, vice governors, and territorial representatives who will also be popularly elected. The cabinet heads of the global government and as well as that of the geographical divisions, should come from the popularly elected representatives of the territorial divisions.There are Ten (10) Stages towards the formation of the Global Government: 1. Information drive and leveling - off using the Globalist Manifesto, 2. Formation of the critical mass of global advocates from every corner of the world, 3. Formation of the International Global Government Organizing Committee, 4. International Convention to Draft the Global Constitution, 5. International Plebiscite on the Global Constitution. 6. Formation of the global two - party system. 7. Election of the Global President, Vice-President, Territorial Representatives, and International Council of Hereditary Leaders. 8. Appointment of the Global Cabinet from among the Territorial Representatives. 9. Formation of the Global Seat of Government, Armed Forces and Central Bank. 10. Managing the world towards lasting peace and prosperity.This manifesto should be advocated worldwide to kings, queens, heads of the states, and heads of the government, diplomats, military leaders, educators, scientists, church leaders, business leaders, personalities, thinkers and everyone. Leaders from all over the world would advocate this vision and one of them should become the founding president of the global government with the rest as the founding fathers. YOU COULD BE ONE OF THEM."<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn11" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn11" name="_ftnref11">[11]</a>(The original manuscript of this manifesto emerged from the classroom of the Master in Development Management, Class of 2003, at the Asian Institute of Management, Makati City, Philippines, on October 18, 2002. The purity of this manifesto should be maintained to avoid misunderstandings as we go on our journey towards the Global Government someday. That government may not happen within your personal lifetime but it will come within the time of the Creator.) The Globalist Manifesto, which originated in the Philippines, is getting adherents among those who are advocating for the formation of a global government world wide. The advocacy campaign is basically based in the World Wide Web which explains the fact the crusade is not yet popular in the mainstream of the Philippine society. The Globalist Manifesto has a unique appeal – direct, honest, clear and simple – which could be the reason why it has the seemingly capacity to snowball by itself, at least in the web.<br /><br />Looking for Entry Points<br /><br />Some topics discussed in the Public Administration subjects can be several jumping boards for the world government concept as an academic discipline.<br /><br />Global State and Global Government<br /><br />“Nationalism is the theory of the nation-state, and as such, it has had an enormous impact on the modern world. The term nation and state are often confused. Nation is a sociological term referring to a group of people who have a sense of union with one another. A state is a political term that includes four elements: people, territory, government, and sovereignty.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn12" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn12" name="_ftnref12">[12]</a> A global state therefore, is a political term that assumes that the people of the world have somewhat agreed to have a sense of sociological union with one another and is about to embark in a political endeavor of organizing into one people, combining their national territories into one global territory, forming a world government and claiming for itself a sense of sovereignty. Take note that world government is just one of the four elements of the global states, so, in terms of advocacy, a global government necessitates a humanity that embraces its other as one, sharing the earth as one territory and having sovereignty. Alexander Hamilton ‘believed that given sufficient power, the government could guarantee the prosperity and happiness of the nation.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn13" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn13" name="_ftnref13">[13]</a> This same logic can be extended into the realm of world government and global state.<br /><br />The Theories of the Origin of the State<br /><br />According to the natural theory of the state, “humans are social beings by nature; that is, they naturally gather together and interact with one another, thus, forming a community. This congregation takes place for reasons which go beyond simple biological necessity. The formal organization of the community is the state. The formation of the state is a result of people’s natural inclination to interact.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn14" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn14" name="_ftnref14">[14]</a> This is the version of Aristotle, the father of political science. By same logic, the global public and by its very nature, may end up coming together as a global state. This coming together will be hastened by the unprecedented communication and technological advances. The believers of the Globalist Manifesto are aligned with this theory.<br /><br />The force theory of the origin of the state says that force was not something to be avoided. On the contrary, it was the primary value in the society. It was its own justification. “Might makes right”, as Nietzche puts it. “The state institutes the power of the strong over the weak and simply arranged the affairs as they should be. According to force theorists, the weak should be ruled by the strong.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn15" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn15" name="_ftnref15">[15]</a> The world government, according to this view, should be initiated by force by the consortium of the world powers like the USA, Russia, European Union and probably China. The advocates of the New World Order (NWO) seem to be close to this theory. The NWO has heir own timeline which is leading to the ultimate formation of a world government.<br /><br />The divine theory is based on the common assumption that some people are God’s chosen ones. “Saul, for example, was anointed by Samuel, the prophet of God, and Saul led the “chosen people” in the conquest of the Philistines. The Arabs conquered a vast empire, the Crusaders invaded the Middle East in the name of the “true religion”, and the Islamic fundamentalists still claim that they are the chosen ones. Similarly, the Japanese, believing that they were favored by the sun goddess (Amaterasu) and convinced that their emperor was her direct descendant, willingly died in the emperor’s cause, thinking that salvation awaited them for such martyrdom.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn16" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn16" name="_ftnref16">[16]</a> In the crusade for the formation of the global government, there are groups identified with the divine theory. One such group is an openly Anti - Christ group led by Dr. Jose Louis de Jesus Miranda whose followers believe that he is the Anti Christ that will someday rule the world. There are groups who believe in the second coming of Christ and propagate that Christ himself will rule the world in his second coming. The Jewish have their own version of one of them, a deliberant, will rule the world someday. The followers of the Baha’i faith has also their own belief of someone from them will emerge and rule the world.<br /><br />The social contract theory says that the “ruler and the ruled agreed on their respective roles and had obligations to one another.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn17" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn17" name="_ftnref17">[17]</a> This theory implied that the ruler governed with the consent of the constituents. The Globalist Manifesto Party is advocating for the formation of a global government under this theory. It is stipulated in the 10 stages for towards the formation of a world government in the Globalist Manifesto itself.<br /><br /><br /><br />The Milestones of the Global Government thought<br /><br />Attempts of different conquerors in various stages of world history can be clustered into one big category, formation of the global government by force. This paper leaves it to history books to states its own milestones along this category.<br /><br />Admittedly, this paper had been influenced by the Globalist Manifesto, and as an advocacy twist, we feel that it is more challenging to try to attempt drawing the “milestone of thoughts” that shapes the formation of a world government concept through diplomacy or consensus along the passage of time, rather than the tagging the upheaval in terms of “milestone of wars”.<br /><br />“For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,<br />Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonders that would be;Till the war-drum throbb’d no longer, and the battle-flags were furl'dIn the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.There the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in awe,<br />And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapt in universal law.”<br />Alfred, Lord Tennyson, “Locksley Hall” (1837)<br />US President Harry Truman, who oversaw the founding of the United Nations after the Second World War, kept these lines from Tennyson's poem in his wallet<br />Ideas of world government and citizenship is found in ancient Chinese and Indian as well as Graeco-Roman thought .This concept was expressed in political form, which later translated into medieval Christian proposals for a global political authority; while the historical model of imperial Rome inspired medieval quests for world empire.<br />Dante (1265–1321), an Italian poet expounded the Christian ideal of human unity, a world governed by a universal monarch. He argued that wars and all their causes would be eliminated if “the whole earth and all that humans can be a monarchy, that is, one government under one ruler. Because he possesses everything, the ruler would not desire to possess anything further, and thus, he would hold kings contentedly within the borders of their kingdoms, and keep peace among them”<br />. In Leviathan [1651], Hobbes (1588–1679) thinks that the individuals surrender some of their rights to the state but he did not think that the present states should also surrender their rights to a global government or global leviathan. Charles Castel, Abbé de Saint-Pierre (1658–1743), in his Project for Making Peace Perpetual in Europe [1713], said that an international leviathan concept should lead the monarchs of Europe to form a federation of states by social contract. This is necessary for their preservation and self interest. This federation will require this monarch to come up with a common congress.<br />Albert Einstein also talked of the necessity for the formation of a global government.<br /><br />The recent set of ideas towards global government is found in the Globalist Manifesto. And this is widely circulated with the advent of the worldwide web. This manifesto points out that world government is necessary and it will happen through time. Since it will happen anyway, we have to shape it towards universal democratic concepts like one person - one vote principle, balance of power, respect of culture and religion, federalism, stable party system, consensus building, diplomacy, representative democracy, etc. It is the most modern and comprehensive sets of dictum so far in the milestone of thoughts along the line of the formation of global government.<br /><br /><br />World Government as a Post Modernist Concept.<br /><br />If we take the current nation state as we know today as a modernist thought, then, the global state and its world government can be a post modernist concept. “Like virtually everyone in public administration, post modernists seek to break down both the organizational silos and the fixed patterns of thought that come with categories and actual and intellectual territory. The post modern deterritorialization argument has long been a part of public administration, although postmodernists could claim that their approaches to ameliorating the structural deficits of organizations promise to be more successful than earlier approaches.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn18" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn18" name="_ftnref18">[18]</a> World government, being a post modernist public administration concept, can provide answers even to some establish political theories. For instances, we can say that the dialectical materialism of Marx predicts that the end point of all these series of thesis and anti-thesis is a stateless society, some sort of savagery. The world government as a post modernist theory offers a different view at the end of the tunnel. Prof. Danny Reyes said in our class that at least, this view is better than the end view being offered by the Marxist, the stateless society, because the concept of world government offers an efficient bureaucracy managing the affairs of mankind as its end view.<br /><br /><br /><br />Globalization, Hollow and Disarticulated States, Steering versus Rowing…where will they lead us?<br /><br />Any keen observer of public administration will conclude that the intensification of globalization, the emerging phenomenon of hollow and disarticulated states, the governments that are just doing the steering and not anymore rowing - all these put together - is leading this humanity into something in the long run….the weakening of the nation states and the strengthening of international institutions. This is a prelude to the ultimate destiny of man, the world government. “In disarticulated state, borders are less meaningful in political jurisdiction of all types – special districts, cities, countries, states and nation-states. Economic and social activity is increasingly multi jurisdictional, a trend encouraged by the development of new technologies, the globalization of marketplace, increasing residential mobility and immigration.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn19" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn19" name="_ftnref19">[19]</a> The trend towards a weak nation-state government is observable vis a vis the increasing strength of the international community and the non government sectors. “In the so - called hollow states, with its extended contract and sub-contract reforms, the characteristics of load or tight inter institutional coupling is as important as the bureaucratic features of each of the coupled institutions. Probably many more persons do “public” works by or through contracts than there are persons in the formal jurisdiction of the bureaucracies.” <a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn20" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn20" name="_ftnref20">[20]</a><br /><br />Other suggested topics within the concept of world government that can be subjected to the rigors of the academic discipline of public administration<br /><br />As in other disciplines, definition of basic terms revolving around world government should be done like world government, global government, global public, global state. Etc. Academic debates, symposia, forums, and discussion groups should be regularly done to determine if the concept belongs to public administration or to political science, which will lead to finer definition of terms, discovery of related concepts, and demarcation of boundaries - the locus and focus – of both political science and public administration disciplines. The Globalist Manifesto should be routinely criticized and evaluated using different lens in order to remain relevant with the rapid changing times. Deeper research on the milestones, including its key personalities, of the march towards the formation of global government should be pursued. For one, it should be mentioned that the University of the Philippines NCPAG is the first ever university in the Philippines, or maybe in the world, to initiate a formal academic study on this concept. A rich literature can be planted in the area of world government bureaucracy - the past, present and future. This field could be historical, descriptive and prescriptive. The formation of the world government advocates matrix, who are these advocates, their organizations, their stand and their approaches. What would be very interesting not only to academicians but also to practitioners of public administration and political science is the topic of what is the current status of the march towards global government. We can also play around Waldonian antinomies of some terms used in the world government concepts like Communist Manifesto – Globalist Manifesto, stateless society – global government, nation state – global state, consensus – force, evolution – creation, Globalist Manifesto – new world order, federal – unitary, amending UN – replacing UN, Etc. We can think of so many other antinomies as the global government concept is gaining foothold in the public administration academic castle because the use of antinomies is a basic “technique of analysis and a form of pedagogy, Waldo often used “antinomies or “paired alternatives” method.”<a title="" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn21" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=3864926597079172542#_ftn21" name="_ftnref21">[21]</a><br /><br /><br /><br />Conclusion<br /><br />Although I am constraints with the limitations of time and number of pages, in fact the class suggested that I have to limit the paper and just state the facts, I remained focus to the objective of this paper, that is, to put the world government concept as part of the academic map of public administration. I did that by showing that by just using the lens of the global government advocates, one will realize that there are so many topics related to world government that are already part of the public administration mainstream and all we need to do is to discuss them in the view point of world government. An example of which is globalization, hollow and disarticulated states, etc.<br /><br />I must confess that I have a selfish motive here…I want to propagate my advocacy for world government to unsuspecting audience using the academe as my stage. The dog has to do what the dog as to do. Its part of an advocacy strategy. Am I being unethical – living at the expense of other people? Hell no! In fact, by teaching people to look at events using the lens of my advocacy, the more they will understand the rationale of most political, social and business phenomena unfolding right before their very eyes. For instance, one would realized that contracting out will weaken the government in the long run by making it as hollow as hollow blocks and thereby strengthening the superpowers and international organizations, contributing eventually to the formation of global government in the end game. If one is being paranoid about it, one may even conclude that a global secretive group is pulling the string from behind for the humanity to go into this direction. By the way, some people within the crusade itself have a term for this secretive group. They call them illuminati.<br /><br />I have an academic wishful thinking, that 2000 years from now, (that is a very long time), when the world is being run by the President of the global government and some restive students like me are researching on the history of the global state and world government, I wish they will encounter the UP NCPAG, Prof. Danny Reyes, Prof. Popoy de Vera and a certain doctoral student by the name of Toti Dulay of circa 2008 AD as part of the few dots in the academic milestones in public administration or political science under the topic of global government. This wishful thinking is driving the wheel of my advocacy efforts.<br /><br />After this paper, I will continue to advocate using mostly my five websites and two blogs in the worldwide web about world government. One thing going about my advocacy works is that my websites and blogs are all rated well (in the top ten among millions of entries) by both Google and Yahoo Search engines, and even Alta Vista in topics “formation of global government” and “formation of world government”. I am seriously considering making this as my topic for my dissertation. Do I have a time frame for my advocacy works? My lifetime is my timeframe.<br />“All this will not be finished in the first hundred days.

But the Globalist Manifesto Party persisted in their advocacy for world government using the world wide web, taking into account that the thinking class of the world can be reached effectively through this emerging technology. Pretty soon, Hillary Clinton talks about the formation of world government. Later, the Russian Foreign Affair Secretary Sergeill Lavrov is endorsing the formation of world government. The Globalist Manifesto Party is happy about the fact that their advocacy is now getting mainstream, but they have to go on... until the world inducts into office the first president of the Global Government.<br />The next strategy is to make world government as an academic discipline in public administration subjects in colleges and universities - in collegiate, masteral and doctorate levels.<br />Prof. Toti Dulay of the Globalist Manifesto Party enrolled in the Doctor of Public Administration class at the National College of Public Administration and Governance of the University of the Philippines, the leading university in this predominantly English - speaking Catholic nation.<br />The first sign of an academic legitimacy of world government as an intellectual discipline was when the paper of Prof. Toti Dulay about World Government was approved by Prof. J.Prospero de Vera lll in the doctoral subject of Public Administration 208. Another paper proposal however about the World Government of Prof. Dulay was rejected by Prof. Danny Reyes saying that World Government is not within the ambit of public administration.<br />The next semester, Prof. Dulay enrolled again under Prof. Danny Reyes class, as if wanting to prove that world government is an academic discipline under the public adminstration. One Saturday morning of January , in that History of Adminisstrative Thought class of Prof. Reyes, a student Maria Victoria L. Mangaser - Garong was reporting on "Woodrow Wilson on the History of Government, A Passing Fad or Constitutive Framework for His Philisophy of Governance" by Jos C.N.Raadschelders. The reporter said that Wilson believed that state sprung from family which grew into tribe, and into larger territories. This is termed as the "genetic explanation " of state. The reporter even quoted Wilson as saying that "the government is not a machine, but a living thing. It falls not under the universe, but under the theory of organic life." Wilson said that "government is accountable to Darwin and not to Newton".<br />At this point of the class discussion, Toti Dulay raised an issue: did Wilson stop his genetic explanation of the formation of the state in the level of state? Dulay argued that following the same logic used by Wilson, the genetic march of the formation of the state will lead into the formation of different states into a world government. At this point, the class went wild.<br />Apparently, the logic is so clear and convincing, yet, it touched on something that is still very very fresh in the academic circle ...the world governement. Student Leo Hernandez agreed on the logic but he said that people of the world will only unite if an outside force from other planets will threaten the very existence of our planet or the humankind. Rey Chang said that the genetic theory of Wilson is happening with the globalization.Dr. Joey Montemayor said that the formation of the world government as already been prophesized in the Bible, but unfortunately, an anti - christ will lead it. Another student argued that world government may happen because of the advent of new technology. One student said that outside planetary threats can be substituted by internal threat to mankind like global warming, terrorism , and nuclear war. One student throw another hypothetical question: if we will have a world government, who will lead it. Toti Dulay decided to remain silent, anxiously awaiting for the final opinion of Prof. Danny Reyes, remembering that he rejected his earlier paper proposal on world government. Finally, Prof. Reyes said that world government might be formed in response to a nuclear disaster being poised by the rough states. He said that nations might unite to prevent this rough states from creating a nuclear disaster. Prof. Reyes even explained that Wilson was the main proponent of the League of Nations and one of the reasons why it did not materialize was because the US Senate failed to ratify the treaty mandating the USA to join the league. Wilson, according to Prof. Reyes, has been at odds with the US Senate at that time. Prof. Reyes even told the class that Toti Dulay wanted to write a paper on world government. If ever Toti Dulay will submit again a proposal to write a paper on world government, will Prof. Reyes approve it this time? This in itself is a good academic discussion.Sofronio Dulayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01368607164645846197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864926597079172542.post-10428115524082316052007-10-13T08:45:00.000-07:002007-10-13T08:59:22.878-07:00The On-Going Crusade for the Formation of a Global Government: the Philippine ResponseBy Prof. Sofronio Dulay<br /><br /><br /><strong>1.0. Introduction<br /></strong><br />The formation of world government is creating interest in the global community. This was brought about by the realization that a global government can potentially address perennial world problems like nuclear war, terrorism, over consumption, over population, poverty, environmental degradation, etc. Today, more than ever, the formation of a global government can be more achievable because the advances of technology, like the worldwide web, has literally shrunk the world. One evidence of the growing interest of the humanity for the formation of a global government is the number of blogs and websites in the search engines like Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista under the topic of “formation of a global government” – they numbered by millions.<br /> As part of my future dissertation proposal, this paper wishes to look at the Philippine response to this phenomenon. Specifically, this paper seeks to answer the following questions: Are there enough literatures in the NCPAG and in the worldwide web about the Philippine reaction and appreciation to the snowballing worldwide crusade for the formation of a global government? Who are the leading Filipino advocates of this crusade? What are the dominant views of these leading advocates and literatures? In a way, this paper seeks to measure the extent of participation of the Filipinos in this crusade and to determine the available literatures and key personalities in the Philippines in relation to this global crusade.<br />Offhand, I feel that there are Filipinos, as an individuals, who put forward ideas and concepts that are contributory to the on – going worldwide crusade for the formation of a global government. This will be shown in the literatures in the NCPAG, blogs and websites written by Filipinos around this topic. The paper therefore will focus in the scanning in the search engines Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista about websites and blogs written by Filipinos pertaining to the formation of a global government. In addition to this, this paper will also search the NCPAG Library, which in a way; will tell the extent of involvement of this institute to a futuristic topic like this one.<br />This paper, due to its inherent limitations such as time, will only focus however on leading literatures written by Filipinos about the formation of a global government that will be found in NCPAG library, and will be scanned in search engines Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista.<br /><br /><br /><strong>2.0. Global Government Defined</strong><br /><strong>2.1. World Government</strong><br />According to Wikipedia, world government “is the concept of a political body that would make, interpret and enforce <a title="International law" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_law">international law</a>. Inherent to the concept of a world government is the idea that nations would be required to pool or surrender (depending on point of view) <a title="Sovereignty" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereignty">sovereignty</a> over some areas. In effect, a world government would add another level of administration above the existing national governments or provide coordination over areas national governments are not capable of adequately addressing as independent polities.” Take note that this definition is somewhat loose because it does not speak of a world government in a sense of a government of a global state, a state with all the four elements of an ordinary state we know today, such as the power to tax, sovereignty, the police power and the power of eminent domain. In a way, the Wikipedia definition of a world government is different from the government of a federated world that configures itself to become a global government of a global state.<br />Yet, this Wikipedia concept of a world government is the one in the top three sites in the Google search engines when one is searching for information about world government or global government.<br />Wikipedia further noted that no nation to date has officially put forward plans for a world government. In fact, this will show that there was never a mainstream international movement for the formation of a global government today that was so effective to the point of convincing or lobbying nations to voluntarily federate themselves into a global government.<br />This fact will somewhat prove that crusade for the formation of a global government of a global state – complete with all the powers of an ordinary state as we know today – is just a recent phenomenon brought about by the world wide web. The proof of this observation is the fact that the topic of global government of a global state was not in mainstream textbooks in political science and public administration. The implication of this fact is that websites and advocates of the formation of a global government of a global state today may turn out to be doing a pioneering crusade of a concept which is different from Wikipedia has defined.<br />And since global government has the making of a pioneering concept and therefore lacks the preponderance of related literatures in the textbooks and libraries all over the world, the best source of this concept is the World Wide Web through search engines like Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista.<br />Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy defines ‘World government’ as “the idea of all humankind united under one common political authority.” It said that this condition has not existed so far in human history, “yet proposals for a unified global political authority have existed since ancient times — in the ambition of kings, popes and emperors, and the dreams of poets and philosophers.” The Stanford definition is more of a government of a global state than the definition of the Wikipedia. This is another proof that the advocacy for the formation of a global government of a global state, in a sense that what we know of states today --- is still in the infancy stage or might be even a different specie all together..<br /><strong>2.2. “New World Order is the De Facto World Government” Theory<br /></strong>According to Wikipedia, New World Order (Novus Ordo Mundi or Novus Ordo Seclorum) refers to a “conspiracy theory in which a powerful and secretive group is to be conspiring to eventually <a title="World domination" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_domination">rule the world</a> via an <a title="Autonomy" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomy">autonomous</a> world government, which would replace <a title="Sovereignty" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereignty">sovereign</a> states and other checks and balances in world power struggles. In new world order conspiracy theories, many significant occurrences are caused by a powerful secret group”. The True Conspiracy website even states that there is an “evil group of men that has always wanted to rule the entire world. In the past, conquest has failed to achieve this, due to the resulting outrage and awareness of the enemy. In our present time, an evil group is trying a subtle but effective way to rule.” Those who believes in this theory thinks that the world is evolving into a global government through the connivance of international institutions, banks, the Vatican, the Jesuits, the rich and famous international families and the multinational corporations - by weakening the present governments of the states (massive privatization, selling of other government properties, strengthening of private sector and civil society, globalization, etc) and marginalizing the people by making them buried through an avalanche of foreign debts. This resulted in disarticulated and hallowed states, too dependent on new world order. <br />The believers of this theory identified the linked organizations planning or causing a world government include the Council on Foreign Relations, the United Nations, the Trilateral commission, the International Monetary Fund, the Fabian Society, the World Bank, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the World Health Organization, the World Trade Organization, the Club of Rome, the World Council of Churches, the Illuminati and trade unions<br /><strong>3.0. History of the Movement for World Government<br /></strong>For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see, Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonders that would be;<br />Till the war-drum throbb’d no longer, and the battle-flags were furl'dIn the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.<br />There the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in awe,And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapt in universal law.<br />Alfred, Lord Tennyson, “Locksley Hall” (1837)<br />United States President Harry Truman, who oversaw the founding of the United Nations after the Second World War, kept these lines from Tennyson's poem in his wallet (Kennedy 2006, xi).<br />According to Derek Heater, ideas of world government and citizenship is found in ancient Chinese and Indian as well as Graeco-Roman thought (1996, ix-x).This concept should be expressed in political form, according to him, which later translated into medieval Christian proposals for a global political authority; while the historical model of imperial Rome inspired medieval quests for world empire.<br />Dante (1265–1321), an Italian poet expounded the Christian ideal of human unity a world governed by a universal monarch. He argued that wars and all their causes would be eliminated if “the whole earth and all that humans can possess be a monarchy, that is, one government under one ruler. Because he possesses everything, the ruler would not desire to possess anything further, and thus, he would hold kings contentedly within the borders of their kingdoms, and keep peace among them” (Convivio, 169).<br />In Leviathan [1651], Hobbes (1588–1679) thinks that the individuals surrender some of their rights to the state but he did not think that the present states should also surrender their rights to a global government or global leviathan.<br />Charles Castel, Abbé de Saint-Pierre (1658–1743), in his Project for Making Peace Perpetual in Europe [1713], said that an international leviathan concept should lead the monarchs of Europe form a federation of states by social contract. This is necessary for their preservation and self interest. This federation will require this monarch to come up with a common congress.<br />Albert Einstein also talked of the necessity for the formation of a global government.<br /><strong>4.0. Movement for World Government in the Philippines</strong><br /><strong>4.1. The National College of Public Administration and Governance (NCPAG) Library<br /></strong>An indication of a concept becoming popular is the existence of reviews and article about it in the libraries. So, I did check the NCPAG library for any article about world government or global government. Unfortunately, no article has been found regarding this topic in the library, which made me conclude that if a library of a leading school of governance for the country does not have any article about the topic, then, the other libraries of lesser popularity will also not have it. This made me conclude that formation of a global government, as a crusade, is not yet popular in the Philippines.<br /><strong>4.2. The World Wide Web</strong><br />World Government Institute, based in Japan, was founded in order to establish the World Government. The Institute was founded by Toshio Suzuki, web master of their website, on 1 May 1997. This institute is composed of branches in different part of the world. A lot of their country headquarters and presidents have not been decided yet. The branches are listed in the <a href="http://www.w-g.jp/wgi/branch-wgi.htm">Branch List</a>. No branches have paid up yet to the international headquarter. The website of the group is administered by World Government Institute Japan.<br />The World Government Institute Philippines is headed by Dr. Jaime B. Ramirez and its office is at 1237 Instruccion Street, Sampaloc, Manila, Philippines. It has one volunteer staff. A check on the office does not show any activities related to the advocacy for the formation of a global government in the country.<br />In a meeting held in Bacolod City, Philippines, of World Future Studies Federation, the need for empowerment of civil society and global government is echoed in the paper of Rakesh Kapoor, who in his paper, entitled "<a href="http://www.wfsf.org/pub/publications/Bacolod_99/Kapoor.pdf">Fast Forward to Fragmented Futures</a>" said:<br />“We see a world today that is economically integrated but politically disunited. The most intractable problems that we may face in the future relate to destruction of the environment, nuclear war, the persistent expansion and globalization of capital, leading to distorted human relationships, on the one hand and increased economic inequalities - within and between nations - on the other. Since all these problems are of a global nature, the ideal way to be able to solve them will be the formation of a global government, which will have the political authority to mediate between and keep in check the nation-states of today.”<br /><strong>5.0. The Globalist Manifesto: A Worldwide Web Snowballing Advocacy</strong><br />Advocacy by accident, is there such a thing? Look at the circumstances of the leading websites in both Yahoo and Alta Vista search engines in the topic of "formation of a global government" over around 7 million entries, the Globalist Manifesto websites, and you will wonder if this is accident, destiny, luck or just a freak aberration.<br />The Globalist Manifesto is printed in basically four websites today: the original is the "global", then later it was published in "founders", "personal" and "party", all in www.geocities.com. These four often land in the top ten in both Yahoo and Alta Vista search engines. But do you know that The Globalist Manifesto was actually hatched in Asian Institute of Management (AIM) in the Philippines? One fine morning sometime 2003 in the Master in Development Management case room, one student secretly posted a one - page essay entitled "The Globalist Manifesto" in its class bulletin board. The article was a result of an overdosed of Prof. Ed Morato's VMOKRAPISPATRES strategic planning sessions the other day. Eventually, the class (yes, the MDM batch 14 that started the International Movement of Development Managers), created their "global" website with the full text of the manifesto in it. Unknown to the class, the word globalist, even up to now, is not even recognized by Microsoft Word spelling checker. This is a proof that ignorance is sometimes beneficial.<br />The first freak accident happened when the Google, the leading search engine in the world, placed the "global' website in the top 10 of the topic globalization for around 4 months. This singular incident is an indication of what will happen in the next four years.<br />Four years later…today.<br />If you search for "globalist manifesto" in Google today, it will show you around 538 entries. (By the way, if you put " " in your search item in Google, it means advanced search, meaning you are asking Google to search the worldwide web and list the websites that talk about your search item as a single word.) In a nutshell, after four years, 538 websites are already talking about Globalist Manifesto. Now if you add in your search "formation of a global government or formation of a "world government" and "globalist manifesto", Google will list around 700 websites. If you will look at the counters of the Google cache of the four websites mentioned, each of them has more than 1 million visitors in four years. In Yahoo cache, each of them has around 600, 000 visitors and around the same count in Alta Vista. Because the visitors of the three search engines are mathematically mutually exclusive, we can conclude that at least 10 million visitors worldwide have seen The Globalist Manifesto. Conservatively, at least around ten percent of them would have read it thoroughly and agreed with it completely. This means that The Globalist Manifesto has around 1 million believers worldwide as of today.<br /><br /><strong>What Do Other Websites Say About The Globalist Manifesto?<br /></strong>From <a title="http://www.answers.com/" href="http://www.answers.com/">http://www.answers.com/</a> in the topic of world government: "Currently, there has not been a nation to officially put forward plans for a world government, although some people do see international institutions (such as the <a title="http://www.answers.com/topic/international-criminal-court" href="http://www.answers.com/topic/international-criminal-court">http://www.answers.com/topic/international-criminal-court</a>, <a title="http://www.answers.com/topic/united-nations" href="http://www.answers.com/topic/united-nations">http://www.answers.com/topic/united-nations</a>, and <a title="http://www.answers.com/topic/international-monetary-fund)" href="http://www.answers.com/topic/international-monetary-fund)">http://www.answers.com/topic/international-monetary-fund)</a> as the beginning elements of a world government system.

It is an umbrella term, covering economic, trade, social, technological, cultural and political aspects, and is the opposite of deglobalization. Today, a proactive form of globalization is emerging, spawning from a drive by international corporations to loosen trade restrictions. It is the global financial firms that have been the most eager proponents of this expansion. A group of advocates from different parts of the world had been pushing for an integrated global society as envisioned in The Globalist Manifesto which is the foundation of globalism ideology."<br />From www.cannabis.com in the topic of new world order: "Many believe the idea of the "new world order" originated in the early 1900s with Cecil Rhodes, who advocated that the British Empire and the United States should jointly impose a Federal World Government (with English as the official language) to bring about lasting world peace. Lionel Curtis, who also believed in this idea, founded the Rhodes-Milner Round Table Groups in 1909, which led to the establishment of the British based Royal Institute for International Affairs in 1919 and the U.S. based Council on Foreign Relations in 1920.[citation needed] The concept was further developed by Edward M. House, a close advisor to Woodrow Wilson during the negotiations to set up the League of Nations (it is unclear whether it was House or Wilson who invented the actual phrase). Another important influence was the futurist H.G. Wells, a vigorous advocate for World Government. There is a prediction that the next major historical world upheaval will emerge from the worldwide web. As a sign of the growing influence of the worldwide web in the human civilization today, a group of advocates from different parts of the world, adhering to The Globalist Manifesto [2] are snowballing the formation of a global political party of selected individuals for the formation of a global government. This party may or may not be influenced by "conspirators". Their websites had been rating in the top 10 of the Yahoo and Alta Vista search engines under the topic of "formation of global government". Some of their websites were also in the top ten in the Google search."<br /><strong>Curiosity Kills the Cat<br /></strong>Perhaps at this point of this paper, the reader is already dead curious about what is that stuff written in The Globalist Manifesto that makes it snowballed by itself? The fine print of the original manifesto is printed next to this article. But the point is: in four years, a trend has been spotted that The Globalist Manifesto is evolving into one of the main literatures in the crusade for the formation of a global government, at least in the worldwide web. How far can it go? Will the trend continue or will it die down? Well, only God knows. But one thing can be said from here: that Asian Institute of Management in the Philippines hatched the seed for this potentially great upheaval in human civilization by accident.<br />Here is the full version of the manifesto.<br /><strong>THE GLOBALIST MANIFESTO</strong><br />"Someday, this world will be peaceful, united, educated and prosperous. There will be no war, no poverty, and no discrimination. A world able to protect itself from global warming, over consumption, nuclear disaster, pollution, acid rain, ozone layer depletion, and AIDS. A world that is able to practice sustainable development, protection of environment and responsible parenthood. There is a world future where there will be no national boundaries, no racial discrimination, nor religious fanaticism.<br />Because every human being is a child of God, everyone is equally important and deserves to enjoy human rights, freedom, happiness and prosperity. The citizens of the world have the duty to act towards this vision, in wherever, whenever, and whatever they can within their status in life. As soon as possible, and through a democratic consensus of all nations via global plebiscite and a drafting of a global constitution through an international constitutional convention, the goal of the citizens of the world is to set up a single and unified global government with police powers, powers to tax, and has the power of eminent domain.<br /><br /><br />This task is arduous and long, but there is no justification for any armed solution in pursuance of this vision. Diplomacy should be the only way.<br />The global government will have judicial, executive, and legislative branches; a government-financed two-party system from the global presidency down to village level; with one monetary system, civil service system, electoral system and an economic system grounded on free enterprise. A global president, vice-president, a chamber of hereditary leaders and a chamber of territorial representatives will be popularly elected. The territorial divisions of the world will have governors, vice governors, and territorial representatives who will also be popularly elected. The cabinet heads of the global government and as well as that of the geographical divisions, should come from the popularly elected representatives of the territorial divisions.<br />There are Ten (10) Stages towards the formation of the Global Government: 1. Information drive and leveling - off using the Globalist Manifesto, 2. Formation of the critical mass of global advocates from every corner of the world, 3. Formation of the International Global Government Organizing Committee, 4. International Convention to Draft the Global Constitution, 5. International Plebiscite on the Global Constitution. 6. Formation of the global two - party system. 7. Election of the Global President, Vice-President, Territorial Representatives, and International Council of Hereditary Leaders. 8. Appointment of the Global Cabinet from among the Territorial Representatives. 9. Formation of the Global Seat of Government, Armed Forces and Central Bank. 10. Managing the world towards lasting peace and prosperity.<br />This manifesto should be advocated worldwide to kings, queens, heads of the states, and heads of the government, diplomats, military leaders, educators, scientists, church leaders, business leaders, personalities, thinkers and everyone. Leaders from all over the world would advocate this vision and one of them should become the founding president of the global government with the rest as the founding fathers. YOU COULD BE ONE OF THEM."<br />(The original manuscript of this manifesto emerged from the classroom of the Master in Development Management, Class of 2003, at the Asian Institute of Management, Makati City, Philippines, on October 18, 2002. The purity of this manifesto should be maintained to avoid misunderstandings as we go on our journey towards the Global Government someday. That government may not happen within your personal lifetime but it will come within the time of the Creator.)<br /><strong>6.0. Conclusion</strong><br /><br />If someone searches in the Google and types the words world government, 607,000,000 entries will be available. If one types global government, 466, 000,000 entries will be there. The combined numbers of the two is 1,073,000,000. The world population reached 6 billion on October 12, 1999.Therefore; the number of sites talking about global government and world government are around 1/6 of the world’s population. Or, one out of the six people on earth more or less, has the idea of a global or world government. This is a potential number for an advocacy campaign.<br />The Globalist Manifesto, which originated in the Philippines, is getting adherents among those who are advocating for the formation of a global government world wide. The advocacy campaign is basically based in the World Wide Web which explains the fact the crusade is not yet popular in the mainstream of the Philippine society. The Globalist Manifesto has a unique appeal – direct, honest, clear and simple – which could be the reason why it has the seemingly capacity to snowball by itself, at least in the web.<br /><br /><br /><strong>7.0.

I must say that I find the idea of me being the president of the Global Government rather humorous. But I will serve in any way that God asks.<br /><br />In my book I recommend a committee of three co-equal executives for the global government, so as to keep the executive branch rather weak compared to the legislative and judicial branches. But leadership is needed either way.<br /><br />I've not spent much time promoting my Global Governance petition on-line, but now that <a href="http://stevemcintosh.com/">http://stevemcintosh.com</a> is up, I may turn to promoting these sites more actively.<br /><br />Thanks for the info about our ranking on the search engines.The integral perspective attempts to transcend the politics of left and right.<br /><br />However, I am registered as a Democrat and I will certainly vote for Hillary Clinton if she is the democratic nominee.<br /><br />The big event for me here is the forthcoming issue of What Is Enlightenment? Magazine, which is publishing a feature interview of me this month called "Integral Politics Comes of Age." In the interview I do my best to advocate world federalism in and I hope it is well received. I will send you a PDF of the article once it comes out.All the best to your family too.<br /><br /><strong>Steve </strong><br /><br />September 5, 2007 5:49Sofronio Dulayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01368607164645846197noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864926597079172542.post-78826822064781242472007-08-23T19:33:00.000-07:002008-12-09T07:23:47.111-08:00The UP DPA "Notorious Batch of 18"<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRdWf_Wbvi4yLZAsy54tq2zkDAV8tmV8YWMrLPdhrLhceA3A0nOLgtt8M5ICIRRf83PBH9-0BXrGDiCWRJmqEHt1HyhVlvr68KqjllCJwq9IvTynopHlYTEGP1mn4mMCVA873jdFaHY49h/s1600-h/lakandul.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5113256908366877762" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRdWf_Wbvi4yLZAsy54tq2zkDAV8tmV8YWMrLPdhrLhceA3A0nOLgtt8M5ICIRRf83PBH9-0BXrGDiCWRJmqEHt1HyhVlvr68KqjllCJwq9IvTynopHlYTEGP1mn4mMCVA873jdFaHY49h/s200/lakandul.gif" border="0" /></a> <span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:180%;color:#660000;"><em>The Batch Promise</em></span><br /><em><span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;">"We promise over the ghost of <a href="http://globalistmanifestoparty.blogspot.com/2007/06/diosdado-macapagal-of-pampanga-and.html">Lakan Dula of Tondo</a>, (baka gusto nyo kay Casper na lang, the friendly ghost), that we will help each other; no competition among us in the class; that all of us will graduate; that we will help each other in our political careers; that we will always be proud of the batch; that we will consider any member of the batch for any opportunity that we will encounter; that our internal batch competition will be "who is better in helping the batch".</span></em><br /><br />Anyone who violate this promise will be spoken to by Lakan Dula (and Casper) on their sleep.

We will not assume. We will go by empherical evidences. Evidences and data should be current and verifiable. In an academic research, we want to show the world the real score, the real situation. The task of the research is to record the real situation and present it in an academic format.<br /><br />With this academic principles of a good research in mind, how do we answer the simple question of who are the leading advocates today in the crusade for the formation of a global or world government? First of all, a research should be able to answer a simple question like this, because how can a research answer sophisticated questions if it cannot answer a simple question. Secondly, a research should be useful to humanity, because what is the point of a research or an invention if it is not of important use for the future of human existence and survival of mother earth.<br /><br />Is this research useful? No doubt about it. Why because it is logical and biblical that a world government will emerge someday. Here is the logic: a man and women got married and organized a family, a group of families became a clan, a group of clans became a tribe, a group of tribes became a kingdom or a state or a nation.... then why stop here. The world has to go on. The globe has to continue on revolving. And so, a group of states or nations will become a world or global government. Both the Holy Bible and the Koran speaks of a global or world government which will be headed by somebody from their religion.<br /><br />What is the usefulness of knowing who are the leading advocates today of global or world government? Very simple.... so that those who wants to help in the crusade, in any way they can, will know whom to coordinate. Why would you deny the human race of this kind of service... of telling them whom to coordinate. This is a very doable and pragmatic reason. For instance, there was a busy body "editor" of Wikipedia who doesnt want to inform the global public on who are the proponents of "The Globalist Manifesto" although it was pointed out to his small brain that the manifesto has been number one in Google and Yahoo Search in the topic "formation of a global government" and because of that fact, it is expected that there are lots of people around the world who would like to know who are the people behind "The Globalist Manifesto". Would you not want to help these people make their search easier? The "Globalist Manifesto Party" even told this man that Wikipedia is supported by the global public through donations so it has the obligation to help the public by informing them about their queries, as much as possible. We dont know if the man is still connected with Wikipedia up to now. The man is a liability to the good image of Wikipedia. That man should be closely supervised if he is still allowed by Wikipedia to interfer up to know.<br /><br />I tell you, there are a lots of other reasons why we have to know who the leading advocates today for the formation of a global or world government, and you can surely name one reason. But the basic point is: knowing them is useful.<br /><br />So, who are really this world leaders:<br /><br />The best way to identify them today is to go to the leading search engines in the world: Google and Yahoo. Then do the advanced search on the topic "formation of a global government" and "formation of a world government". Why advanced search? Because, we want to make sure that those who will appear in the search are those who in their writings or speaking engagements have talked about the topic, in one way or another. Because common sense will tell you that how can one advocate for something if they did not talk or write about it. Right? And why base it on Google and Yahoo. Common sense again, how can you reach a maximum audience continuously if your idea is not in the Top entries of the Top search engines in the world. If you agree on this logic, then, life will be easier for both of us. All we need to do is to type "formation of a world government" or "formation of global government"....this is what what we call Advanced Search.<br />Get the Top five in both Google and Yahoo and "formation of a world government" and "formation of a global government". And then list them here. To wit:<br /><br />A.

The "Yahoo Test".<strong></strong><br /><strong></strong><br /><strong>Although "The Globalist Manifesto" is ranking in the Top 10</strong> of the search engines in both Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista over millions of entries in the topic of "formation of world government" and "formation of a global government", we want to know if the Yahoo audience will really pick a "The Globalist Manifesto"- centric answer over all other answers in a Yahoo Answers portion.<br /><br /><strong>Result: They did pick "The Globalist Manifesto" version as the best answer. See the full text below.</strong><br /><br /><strong>Yahoo Question:</strong><br /><br />Why are most people opposed to a "world government"? From what I gather, most people oppose it. Yet, it would encourage trade, create synergies, do away with redundancies such as diplomatic representations, multiple governments, etc., let alone war and the need for a military.So - what gives?<br /><br /><strong>Additional Details:</strong><br /><br />Plus, communication and logistics (which limited ancient empires) are no longer an issue.Plus, most serious problems are international, not national. They require international solutions.4 days ago Jun 18, 2007 at 3:32 am -->- 29 answers -<br /><br /><strong>Best Answer - Chosen by AskerAnswer authored by Prof. Dulay:</strong><br /><br />This question is timely because this will give clarity to the "resistance" on the "formation of a global government".There are different reasons why some people or groups are opposed to the formation of a world government, namely:<br /><br /><strong>1. The ultra nationalist Americans</strong> think that the global government might start the end of pax Americana. On the contrary, the global government, might actually perpetuate it because, if we subscribe to the vision of The Globalist Manifesto, a global government will prevent the next world war. If the next world war will be prevented, then, the ranking of world power will remain the same and therefore, the USA will remain to be the only world power... hence, pax Americana will continue even if we have a world government.<br /><br /><strong>2. Countries with small population are opposed to the formation of a global government</strong> because, again, based on The Globalist Manifesto's "one person - one vote" principle, they will be overwhelmed by highly populated countries like India, China and Indonesia. What these small countries do not realize is that they will actually be represented in the global congress and their representatives can even become global president and cabinet members. Also, they do not realized that a strong two party system from village level to the global level as envisioned in The Globalist Manifesto, will actually prevent China, India and Indonesia, and any country for that matter, to vote solidly as one people because in a two party system, there are always contending opposite party and a third force on non aligned voters.<br /><br /><strong>3. Some people are afraid of the NWO or conspirators</strong> whom they think are pulling the strings from behind in this formation of a global government crusade. Actually, these NWO or conspirator stuff could actually be a myth perpetuated by those who will benefit if they are able to project that they are strong. In reality, the global government, according to The Globalist Manifesto is so big to be manipulated by an individual or a cabal. It is just like the "Russian winter that defeated the human German Army". Life is so short to manipulate such a big global upheaval. In fact, on the contrary, the initial problem of a global government is how to put the 190 something countries together peacefully and the world might be very lucky to muster a strong united political party or group that can put the global government intact, specially on its initial years.<br /><br /><strong>4. Some ultra religious people thinks that the formation of a global government will give way to the emergence of Satanists or Anti Christ ruling the world</strong>.The threat is real. But in reality, how can an Anti Christ or a Satanist for instance win the vote of the Christians in a one person, one vote global election as envisioned in The Globalist Manifesto. Also, Muslims, according to their Koran, can never be Anti Christ because they also respect Jesus Christ... in other word, its very un - Koran to fight Christ. The Globalist Manifesto Party was organized to make sure that a Satanists or Anti Christ will find it hard to be prominent in a global political scene, its one of their organizational objectives. And, there are lots of others who will be willing to fight the Satanists or Anti Christ as a group or individuals.<br /><br /><strong>5. Lastly, some anti Jews think that the formation of a global government is a ploy of the Jews.</strong> This is not accurate. The crusade for the formation of global government started long time ago. Even the leaders of The Globalist Manifesto crusade which is the leading websites today in Yahoo and Alta Vista Search in the topic of formation of a global government over around 7 million website entries, do not even consider "Jewishness" as their consideration. Most of them are devoted Roman Catholics.<br /><br />Sources):<br /><br /><a title="http://www.gmparty.cjb.net" href="http://www.geocities.com/globalistmanifesto/party.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.geocities.com/globalistmanifesto/party.html</a><br /><a title="http://cdmfoundation.cjb.net" href="http://www.geocities.com/globalistmanifesto/founders.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.geocities.com/globalistmanifesto/founders.html</a><br /><a title="http://globalistmanifestoparty.blogspot.com" href="http://globalistmanifestoparty.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://globalistmanifestoparty.blogspot.com/</a><br /><br /><strong>Asker's Rating:</strong><br /><br />Thanks everyone.

Thru "Scholarship Gambit"The heart of a researcher and advocate is always passionate. They must have the fire in their belly to keep the momentum going. Every advocacy action must be cost efficient.<br /><br />And so, to test the reaction of global leaders on the formation of world government, I selected 5 top global leaders: the Pope, Bill Gates, Nobel Prize Chairman, UNDP and Rockefeller Brothers. The game plan is to email them a personal letter from me, introducing myself as one of the core groups of the Globalist Manifesto Party, the party with around one million sympathizers worldwide who are pushing for the formation of a global government. I stated in the letter that I am enrolled in the Doctor of Public Administration Program at the University of the Philippines, NCPAG.<br /><br />My letter to these 5 global leaders is to ask for an "scholarship" because my dessertation is about the World Government. The gambit is very simple: if they dont like the formation of the global government, they can at least support an academic study about it. Or, they may outright dismiss the letter as something crazy?<br /><br />Results:<br /><br /><strong>1. The Nobel Prize has this to say:</strong><br /><br /><strong>Dear Professor Dulay</strong>,<br /><br />"The Nobel Foundation does unfortunately not possess funds for grants of any kind. Owing to the will of Alfred Nobel and the statutes of the Nobel Foundation the object of the Nobel Foundation is to administer the Prize Funds and to distribute the Nobel Prize".<br /><br /><strong>Jonna Petterson<br /></strong>Jonna PettersonInformationsansvarig / Public Relations ManagerNobelstiftelsen / The Nobel FoundationP.O. Box 5232SE-102 45 Stockholm, Sweden<br /><br /><strong>2. Bill Gates answered thru his staff saying that he has other more important priorities to support.</strong>(I accidentally erased the letter in my file)<br /><strong></strong><br /><strong>3. The Pope did not answer.</strong><br /><strong></strong><br /><strong>4. UNDP is maybe thinking about it.</strong><br /><strong></strong><br /><strong>5. Rockefeller Brothers did not answer. They probably think its a joke.</strong><br /><strong></strong><br />As of today, 2 out of 5 responded, although those who responded did not support the dessertation plan.Sofronio

my research proposal which I plan to be part of my future dissertation.<br /><br />Toti Dulay<br /><br /><strong>Proposed Title</strong>: The On – Going Crusade for Formation of a Global Government: the Philippine Response<br /><br /><strong>Background of the Study:</strong><br /><br />The formation of world government is creating interest in the global community. This was brought about by the realization that a global government can potentially address perennial world problems like nuclear war, terrorism, over consumption, over population, poverty, environmental degradation, etc. Today, more than ever, the formation of a global government can be more achievable because the advances of technology, like the worldwide web, has literally shrunk the world. One evidence of the growing interest of the humanity for the formation of a global government is the number of blogs and websites in the search engines like Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista under the topic of “formation of a global government” – they numbered by millions. As part of my future dissertation proposal, this study wishes to look at the Philippine response to this phenomenon.<br /><br /><strong>Problem Statement:</strong><br /><br />This paper seeks to answer the following questions:<br /><br />Are there enough literatures in the NCPAG and in the worldwide web about the Philippine reaction and appreciation to the snowballing worldwide crusade for the formation of a global government? Who are the leading Filipino advocates of this crusade? What are the dominant views of these leading advocates and literatures?<br /><br /><strong>Objectives:</strong><br /><br />This paper seeks:<br /><br />To measure the extent of participation of the Filipinos in this crusade.<br />To determine the available literatures and key personalities in the Philippines in relation to this global crusade.<br /><br /><strong>Hypothesis:</strong><br /><br />Some Filipinos, as an individuals, has put forward ideas and concepts that are contributory to the on – going worldwide crusade for the formation of a global government. This will be shown in the literatures in the NCPAG, blogs and websites written by Filipinos around this topic.<br /><br /><strong>Methodology:</strong><br /><br />The study will focus in the scanning inn the search engines Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista about websites and blogs written by Filipinos pertaining to the formation of a global government. In addition to this, this study will also search the NCPAG Library, which in a way, will tell the extend of involvement of this institute to a futuristic topic like this one. Scope and Limitations: This study, due to its inherent limitation, will only focus on leading literatures written by Filipinos about the Formation of a global government found in NCPAG library, and scanned in search engines Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista.<br /><br /><strong>Submitted by:</strong><br /><br />Prof. Sofronio C.

Prospero De Vera lll of PA208<br /><br /><strong>Initial reaction of Prof. De Vera, in a way, the first academic approval of the topic for a doctoral dissertation:</strong><br /><br />Toti,<br /><br />This is a very refreshing interest but I have to admit this is the first time I've heard it. The idea of a review of literature is good given that this is, as you said "an emerging interest". Have you preliminarily checked if there are indeed literatureon the www? And is the literature substantive enoughto do a review. The www has a lot of junk and I am afraid you might catch these also.<br /><br />popoy---<br /><br /><span style="color:#006600;">$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$</span><br /><span style="color:#006600;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;">ADVERTISEMENTS:</span><br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://materialworld.multiply.com/tag/bath%20and%20body%20works" rel="tag">bath and body works</a>, <a href="http://materialworld.multiply.com/tag/victoria" rel="tag">victoria's secret</a>, <a href="http://materialworld.multiply.com/tag/bath%20sets" rel="tag">bath sets</a><br />Next: <a href="http://materialworld.multiply.com/photos/album/2">Sexy Shorts!</a><br /><br /><span style="color:#006600;">$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$</span>Sofronio Dulayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01368607164645846197noreply@blogger.com52tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864926597079172542.post-43538055742392440452007-08-12T18:20:00.001-07:002007-09-05T08:47:15.679-07:00The Theory and Practice of Public Administration as a Conceptual Base in the Crusade for the Formation of a Global Government.<strong>Proposed Title:</strong> The Theory and Practice of Public Administration as a Conceptual Base in the Crusade for the Formation of a Global Government.<br /><br /><strong>Background of the Study:</strong> The formation of world government is creating interest in the global community. This was brought about by the realization that a global government can potentially address perennial world problems like nuclear war, terrorism, over consumption, over population, poverty, environmental degradation, etc. Today, more than ever, the formation of a global government can be more achievable because the advances of technology, like the worldwide web, has literally shrunk the world. One evidence of the growing interest of the humanity for the formation of a global government is the number of blogs and websites in the search engines like Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista under the topic of “formation of a global government” – they numbered by millions. As part of my future dissertation proposal, this study wishes to look at the theory and practice of public administration as a conceptual base in the crusade for the formation of a global government.<br /><br /><strong>Problem Statement:<br /></strong>This paper seeks to answer the following questions:<br /><br />Can the theories and practices of public administration be a conceptual base in the crusade for the formation of a global government?<br />What are some of the dominant views of the current leading advocates for the formation of a global government?<br /><br /><strong>Objectives:<br /></strong>This paper seeks<br />To identify the use of classical public administration theory and practice in the crusade for the formation of global government?<br />To determine the available <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">literatures</span> and key personalities in relation to this global crusade.<br />Hypothesis: Despite that the formation of global government seem a very <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">utopian</span> idea, the crusade for the formation of a global government is becoming popular with the advent of the worldwide web and with the fact that it is rooted on classical public administration concepts.<br />Methodology: The study will focus in the scanning in the search engines Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista about websites and blogs pertaining to the topic of formation of a global government. In addition to this, this study will also relate the concepts learned in PA 201 to the crusade.<br /><br /><strong>Scope and Limitations:</strong> This study, due to its inherent limitation, will only focus on leading <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">literatures</span> discussed in the class of PA 201 and the top 15 websites and blogs found in search engines Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista.<br /><br />Submitted by: Prof. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Sofronio</span> C. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Dulay</span> , <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">DPA</span> candidate<br />To: Prof. Danny Reyes of PA201<br /><br /><strong>Prof Danny Reyes</strong> has this reaction as a way of approving my paper proposal, making him the second doctoral professor to , in a way, approved my dissertation for a "world government":<br /><br />Is this so? Can this happen? What do you mean by conceptual base? You have to be clear on this? You have to expound on "world government". Please see me and bring this with you.<br /><br /><strong>Second Look on the Paper by Prof. Danny Reyes:</strong><br /><br />I went to see Prof. Reyes about this paper. He said that its up to me to pursue this paper but in his opinion, this paper is suited more on political science course and not on public administration. I might be on the handicap if I still pursue this.<br /><br />And so, I decide not to pursue this paper anymore because I want to finish my doctorate. I decided that I will write about the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Marikina</span> Ideology instead, my present project on my consultancy job with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Marikina</span> City Mayor <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Marides</span> Fernando.<br /><br />But, I might pursue the paper in my other doctoral subjects because I want to see really if there are theoretical and practical basis on the formation of global government on the topics commonly discussed on public administration. My desire is to provide academic substance to the snowballing crusade of the formation of the global government.Sofronio Dulayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01368607164645846197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864926597079172542.post-38862158102272167872007-08-10T09:11:00.000-07:002007-09-04T17:52:44.124-07:00An Experiment for Global GovernmentThis blog is a part of a three - year experiment starting today that would answer the question.....<br />How popular really is global government? or world government if you will?<br /><br />A lot of people all over the world would like to know. So, I decided to take Doctor of Public Adminsitration at the University of the Philippines National College of Public Adminstration and Governance and make global government my doctoral dissertation. By doing so, I wish to put the topic "world government" into the mainstream of an academic discipline in political science, public administration, diplomacy, foreign affairs and governance.<br /><br />I want to remove the stigma, the taboo associated with the topics : world government or global government. Sometimes, I have noticed that this topic, although very important , is not discussed in a polite conversation. Sometimes, if you talked about it, some people think that you lost your marbles. And so, I would like to grab the bull by the horn by writing a doctoral dissertation about it.<br /><br />Hopefully, by blazing the trail, a lot of silent advocates for the formation of a global government will come up in the open. Hopefully, this crusade will produce human faces of different hues. Hopefully, to speak of world government will become fashionable.<br /><br />I know that someday, when this crusade will become popular and fashionable, a lot of people ... leaders, academicians, writers...will talk about it. By then, I will just be contented by the thought that once upon a time, a boy from Marikina Valley grew up to be the leading advocate of a worldwide crusade that was so unpopular at the beginning that some people thought he needs to see a shriek. But when the crusade started to get nice reviews and people all over the world realized that the crusade will potentially save the human race and the the mother earth, this young boy was declared a global hero. Wow, what a nice script. Well, admittedly, this thought drives me. Is this possible? I have to jump into the river to know how deep it is. If I will not do this, who will do this? If not now, when? Somebody has to do the dirty job. A dog has to do what the dog has to do.<br /><br />So, welcome to the crusade. If we are wrong, at least the whole world knows that we did it in our desire to save the humanity and the mother earth. If we are right, then, let us laugh all the way to the grave. Then, let the future generations of human race rift the harvest of our labor. I dont mind if I lost my face if the potential return is the salvation of the human existence. Am I sounding like an "anti academician", very "undoctoral", well, the proof of the pudding is in the eating...if you can not join the skirmishes of this global crusade, just watch the show from your fence. We are happy that at least you are watching. Its a sign that you care for humanity and the mother earth.Sofronio Dulayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01368607164645846197noreply@blogger.com1
