The New Map of the World : The Corporate Superstructure and the Interconnected Informational Substructure

A Revolution is Here. A new study has made what was already thought to be true an empirical reality. The modern electro-mechanic corporate person has dethroned its birth giver, the machine mother, the nation state. It is built on top of the concrete, brick and pavement of print culture, where repeatability and interchangeability once dominated, because inter-connectivity is the new name of the game.

The nation state cannot withstand the chaos that is growing atop its borders, its streets and its rigid steel grid design. The cold monster cannot even fathom this new emergence, nor does it realize this emergence is reshaping the very foundations which gave birth to it. Below the concrete, flows the lava of the information super highway where interconnectivity has seeped into the substructure as well. The cement has already begun to crumble.

However, faced with the pure anarchic chaos of the substructure, the superstructure is dependent on what it is helping to destroy, the crumbling culture of the old; both their survivals depends on an assimilation. To what degree, then, will this revolution be in the form of a creative destruction, and to what degree will all three structures be assimilated?
