DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - My head is overflowing with research today, so forgive the philosophical mood.
What everyone keeps asking, implicitly, is whether there exists some hidden Leviathan; a single Rockefeller-style manifesto that lays out the master plan for one world order. That's how people expect ideologies to work: communism gave us its manifestos, its "scientific truths," its cults of personality. Monolithic systems are easy to trace because they tell us what is the "truth" and demand obedience.
But globalism is of a different species. It is pluralistic by design, self-consciously so. Karl Popper spoke of the "open society" as a Pantheon; no one has a monopoly on truth, everyone contributes their piece. Soros echoed this: nobody holds absolute knowledge, so institutions must be designed to keep multiple truths in circulation.
So if we extend the metaphor: how would such a Pantheon of gods govern?
They would not issue a single manifesto. Instead, they would agree over time to build common institutions: temples, rules of ritual through which their collective will could be enacted. Those temples are the IMF, NATO, the UN, the WTO, the OSCE. Each god retains individuality, but each also consents to empower the Pantheon as sovereign.
The unspoken covenant is: whatever disagreements they might have, every god advances the authority of the Pantheon itself. Bush, reluctant in Bosnia, still upheld the system. Albright, more zealous for intervention, pushed it forward. Soros was a disruptor who accelerated the Pantheon rule.
Freedom exists for common people, but only within this sacred order. You may worship freely, so long as you worship within the Pantheon's terms. To reject the gods entirely is to be autocratic -- because to reject the Pantheon is to reject pluralism.
And because it is pluralistic and dynamic, the Pantheon naturally evolves and strengthens once in place. Institutions accumulate power. Each generation of gods adds new layers, from Cold War containment to post-Cold War enlargement. The vocabulary shifts, but the structure grows more durable.
The paradox is that over time, the Pantheon hardens into the same monolithic tyranny it claimed to transcend. What began as a pluralist coalition ends as a self-justifying orthodoxy. To question the Pantheon, to question the legitimacy of NATO expansion  or "democracy promotion," is to brand oneself a heretic,  an enemy of "democracy."
In short: the open Pantheon has become its own closed Leviathan.
