In 1974, Richard N. Gardner wrote a book titled, The Hard Road to the New World Order.  The following is a quote from that book:

The "house of world order" will have to be built from the bottom up rather than from the top down.  It will look like a great "booming, buzzing confusion," to use William James' famous description of reality, but an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault.

The period we are living through now is the booming, buzzing confusion with an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece to build a 'New World Order'.  Throughout the United States our system of government is being replaced by a system of "governance" that is sometimes called networked governance but really, it is just another name communism - governing by committee.

The booming, buzzing confusion is the result of the convergence of three distinct policy areas for lack of a better term:  Internationalism, Environmentalism, and Automation.  Confusion is eliminated by understanding the history of each as they move towards convergence and how they all relate at the point of convergence which this writer considers to be circa 1990 in the United States.  

Internationalism - global governance (management) is the objective.  Environmentalism provides the philosophical basis for the changes that are being made to the American way of life beginning with government and Automation is the means by which fascist totalitarian control will be achieved and maintained for the rest of history if they succeed.
