We may have the names of countries on the map for the sake of convenience, but in reality, there will be no intermediary between the world and the village. All the authority concerning the material side of life will rest with the village. The village will have power to order its own life. The power of normal advancementof the whole world will rest in the world centre. The districts or the States will only be the agents of the village community. Thus we shall have the village at the base and the World Authority at the Centre. Human society will be organized on the basis of small village communities of, say, 2 to 3 thousand souls each. There would be no private ownership. The village will be a model of corporate life. The world center will be the ultimate co-ordinating link between these primary communities ER -
