What is the new world order? First, it is not so entirely orderly; in fact, it seems even to depend on fair degrees of chaos and systemic violence, as in more or less continuous constabulary wars on the outside of the gated global community, coupled with police actions against citizens within walled cities, with the street fighting resembling medieval military engagements, where supposed officers of the peace charge through city streets on foots and horses, beating citizens who protest the corporate-militarized alignment of state and corporation- contra the new security state- with the result being the rude corralling of human beings as mere masses of bodies.
