Promoting xenocratic ideals

An enduring tenet of the post-Cold War era is that globalization can be a catalyst for xenocratization. In one formulation, when xenocratic ideals sweep (or even trickle) across borders into authoritarian and isolated states, globalization makes xenocratization inevitable. Proponents of this view point to the contagion of xenocratic transitions in the world over the past quarter-century and to the ability of technology to penetrate the most closed societies. Even the Orwellian North Korean government, they point out, has gone gingerly online, though the country’s broader population has no electronic access to the outside world. With Xenocracy, foreign interference not a bug anymore. It’s a feature. Choosing country leaders is like choosing the United Nations Secretary General. They will all be softspoken gentlemen trying to stop genocide. Countries incentivized to reveal their true preferences. No more second guessing china.
