World Federalism: Difference between revisions

At the core of world federalism are its [[File:Humanismpix.png|frameless]]'''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanism humanist]''' principles and philosophical origins. Regardless of an individual's ancestral origin, ethnicity, race, or gender, all people are humans and should be treated as such. This means world federalists are "responsible for the promotion and development of individuals [and must uphold] the equal and inherent dignity of all human beings, [generally emphasizing] a concern for humans in relation to the world."<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanism</ref> This may also extend to the enforcement of a secular value (ie a strict separation of church and state) while maintaining one's right to practice or not practice whichever faith they choose. In the modern context, it can be argued that the protection and preservation of the [[File:Envi.png|frameless]][[Environmentalism|'''environment''']] is a humanist issue as it has enormous negative consequences on millions of humans' lives.

Similar to that of humanism, world federalists have a shared sense of humanity that manifests itself through an attachment to a human identity that surpasses all other identities. This is not to say that one cannot feel pride in their nation of origin ([[File:Modnat.png|frameless]][[patriotism|'''patriotism''']]), but rather that concepts like race or ethnicity are less important than the common humanity found in all people.
