Dear World, a Global Odeyssey (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781463502621)

Dear World, A Global Odyssey is the continuation of World Citizen Garry Davis's love story, the dramatic and sweeping saga of one human's bold and unsparing critique of nationalism and down-to-earth action for world peace, travel freedom and human rights in his life-long dedication to legalize One World and One Humanity. A sweeping critique of nationalism and a practical guide for anyone interested in world peace, the freedom to travel and human rights, the main locale is Japan where Davis was jailed, contacted the Emperor; issued honorary World passports to Sakharov, the mayors of Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Tokyo; and human rights documents to Southeast Asians working illegally in Japan. Meetings with Presidents Vaclav Havel and Vytautus Landsbergis (Lithuania), Moscow mayor Gavril Popov and correspondence with Queen Elizabeth (while in Brixton Prison for "deportation"), Margaret Thatcher, Emperor Akihito and others are fascinating footnotes to history.Spanning 40 years, beginning with the founding of the UN and ending with his world tour after the Berlin Wall breakdown, Davis covers individual sovereignty, becoming a world citizen, mundialization (communities declaring themselves global units), the World Syntegrity(TM) Project (the exciting new cybernetic process designed to evolve a democratic constitution), and the historical evolution of the World Government of World Citizen.
