Globalocal

State, unlike the power and influence of the ruling classes, is omnipresent because it has evolved along with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), even though its political leaders seem to contradict this assumption. In its early days, the State transmuted political power into religion and later into commerce, art and science. Today, the state administers sufficient sums to revive first-rate economies or finance global banking systems.
