Riassunto

The shape of things to come: Book The first: Today and tomorrow: the age of frustration dawns interprets actual historical events up to the early 1930s through the perspective of support for a unified world government. It examines pre-war denial and isolationism, the Great War, and the aftermath, including the Treaty of Versailles, the League of Nations, and the London Economic Conference. Written in a time when the global Great Depression showed no signs of a swift recovery, it explores structural flaws in the existing economic system. The book envisions the collapse of national governments, prolonged conflict, and the eventual rise of a rationalized, technocratic world order led by scientifically minded elites. It suggests that traditional institutions fail due to their inability to address modern economic and social complexities, advocating for a planned global society as the only viable solution to persistent instability. Education, technology, and centralized authority are presented as tools for a future beyond nationalism, where a scientifically managed world replaces the inefficiencies of political compromise and economic disorder. The vision is both utopian and authoritarian, reflecting anxieties of the era while projecting a future of order through intellectual governance.
