[002 mimic #2 nonscientific] Old World Order_Hailey

TIME
Old World Order
How geopolitics fuels endless chaos and old-school conflicts in the 21st century

By Robert D. Kaplan, March 21, 2014

This isn’t what the 21st century was supposed to look like. The visceral reaction of many pundits, academics and Obama Administration officials to Russian President Vlandimir Putin’s virtual annexation of Crimea has been disbelief bordering on disorientation. As Secretary of State John Kerry said, “It’s really 19th century behavior in the 21st century.” Well, the “19th century”, as Kerry calls it, lives on and always will. Forget about the world being flat. Forget technology as the great democratizer. Forget the niceties of international law. Territory and the bonds of blood that go with it are central to what makes us human.

Forget about the world is flat. Forget about technology as the greatest democratizer. Forget about the nicety of international law. The geography and the bond of blood that come with is was what make us human.
