  • "The foremost contradiction in our recent political systems has been the antagonism of formal and informal empire. The former is engaged in what we conventionally understand under conquest and colonisation: Armies under the banner of some nation showing up in another part of the world in order to take territory. The latter runs on the soft power of international legitimacy, the art of diplomacy and the strength of a common vision for the future."
