"The Western liberal model of development, which particularly stipulates a partial loss of national sovereignty – this is what our Western colleagues aimed at when they invented what they called globalization – is losing its attractiveness and is no more viewed as a perfect model for all. Moreover, many people in the very western countries are skeptical about it," Lavrov said.
According to him, global development is guided "by processes aimed at boosting multipolarity and what we call a polycentric world order."

I can't tell you which way it's forming, but a new world order does seem to be in play. UK & US trending down.
Most of the challenges facing the world in the next 50 years are going to require international cooperation.
>I can't tell you which way it's forming
I sure the hell hope it is not in the direction of Russia (https://medium.com/@meohoh/twelve-reasons-why-russia-sucks-9ceb0feddcd6).

New World Order = Nation States Selling Out to Multinational Corporations = corporatism
In the USA we have not given away our freedom to a bunch of bureaucrats in Brussels.

True but we do give it away in other ways. The US gov't also gives in to corporate interests way too easily at the expense of the public interest.

Case in point:
https://www.democracynow.org/2019/4/10/headlines/bipartisan_tax_bill_would_make_free_irs_e_filing_system_illegal
QuoteA new tax bill with bipartisan backing in both the House and Senate could make it illegal for the IRS to create its own online system for filing taxes. A provision in the House's Taxpayer First Act would bar the agency from offering an easier, low-cost or cost-free way of filing, even though an estimated 70% of Americans are eligible to file for free based on their incomes. Tax filing companies such as TurboTax and H&R Block have long lobbied to block the IRS from offering the service in order to maintain their share of the e-filing market.
>Case
Exactly. No thought for the citizens consumers. Congress has been sneaking stuff like this in for years, but it used to be only once in awhile, now it seems like every new bill, regulation or law is all for some corporation, industry group and neither the politicians or business suits even try to hide it anymore.
If you want to know why Populism is growing it's because the rank and file people no longer have faith or trust in the system. They think a "Man on a Horse", is going to fix things, but that is a deception too.
Gov't no longer even tries to regulate what they are supposed to: food safety, aircraft safety, pharmaceutical safety, Google, privacy, Banking, securities - the regulators are either asleep, or the job has be outsourced, or the companies left to regulate themselves.
I agree about the idea of government dominated by corporate business interests.

IMO corporatism, or even worse, the Russian style oligarchy is really the biggest threat to the United States right now. Other dangers are easy to see, but this one is like cancer.

Well said.

The NWO has been being formed since after WW2. It's roots can be traced back to Britain with Oliver Cromwell and the rse of the merchant-class.
