Business engagement, mental models, and philosophy in the globalized world

In 1795, Immanuel Kant published his famous treatise on a "Perpetual Peace". In this book, Kant envisaged a federation of independent states as the ultimate aim in the field of politics. This federation was, in Kant's eyes,the best means to secure prosperity and peace in the world. Kant did neither believe a "world state" would be the most desired institutional framework, nor did he believe that the individuals, the world citizens, would be able to conduct their affairs without government institutions at all. A federation seemed appropriate as a theoretical middle course, and the question is whether we have in principle advanced from this theoretical position at all.
