Abstract

First publication in which the development of a supranational system is recognized as a major evolutionary saltation. The authors writings along this line upset American financial interests and the United States government which were at the time obsessed with the "Cold War." On April 4, 1963, the New York Times reported that a leading American industrialist, Clarence Randall, had denounced me for what he called "a scandalous attack" against the mining industry of Southern Africa and by implication the entire mining industry of the West.
