| Summary / Abstract (Note) | AT ALL TIMES, the ideas that institutes placed above state sovereignties or even acting instead of states (that is, appropriating their functions and powers) were based on the universalist theories saying that an ideal international order (patterned on social order) and corresponding models of all sorts were possible. Up till the mid-20th century, those who spoke of global institutes of governance and regulation limited their powers to the war and peace issues. The authors were convinced that these supreme institutes should overrule the personified sovereignty of monarchs and feudal lords (and nation-states of the later period). Individual or group unofficial projects were mainly suggested by idealistic ideological imperatives rooted in corresponding social-economic bases. In the 17th century, capitalism in Europe which spilled over to colonies became the determining factor. |
