Declaration of Principles For Mundialization[1] Charter
WHEREAS, in recognition of the inextricable and intrinsic interdependence of all members of the family of man with all animal, plant, mineral, electrical, political, economic, and moral resources on Earth; and,
WHEREAS, in recognition of the current precariousness of societal stability, basic survivability and general peace faced by all life on this planet; and,
WHEREAS, in recognition of the unreasoning and continued destruction of all the great natural resources of the Earth and increasing world pollution; and,
WHEREAS, in recognition that mutual survival mandates actualization of new technologies that replace the technologies that are now destructive to the general health, integrity, and wellbeing of all life on Earth; and,
WHEREAS, seeking to abstain from engaging in any form of warfare or other non-harmonious type of relationships with our fellow inhabitants and all other mutually co-dependant life on Earth; and,
WHEREAS, realizing that the common interests of all life can be met only through voluntary world-wide cooperation, reciprocal respect, reverence, and mutually beneficial relationships with all life; and,
WHEREAS, aware that we can best serve all life on Earth when we also think and act as world inhabitants and joint stewards of this planet we all share in common as home;
We hereby join with other concerned inhabitants of Earth in a declaration that we share in honorable life responsibility by pledging our efforts to the establishment and preservation of lasting world peace based on living in harmony with natural law, each other, and lawful reciprocity with competent jurisdictions; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that as a symbol of our obligations as joint earthly inhabitants, we proudly display the United Nations flag, alongside our flag on equal mast and encourage other organized bodies with sovereign capacity to stand with us, to do the same.
[1] As a term, “Mundialization” is often used in the same manner as “globalization” but it has different roots and so carries different connotations and denotations. Both words are Latin in origin. “Globalization” refers to the globe, to the shape of globe and hence, with regard to the earth, to the shape of the earth.
“Mundialization” comes from the Latin word, mundus, or, in English, world, and as such it refers to far more than spatial dimensions or geographic confines. When we speak of “our world,” we usually mean the manners and customs, ideas, language and the like which are in our particular community or communities of reference. It is not geographic at all, though place may be a part of it. When we speak of the world at large, we are referring to the peoples and cultures around the globe. With these connotations in mind, we can see that Mundialization thus would mean that some aspect of some part of the world at large has been globalized, that is, has undergone some sort of transfer, and, most would agree, some sort of transformation in the process.
