    But will humans be able to not only create but also to maintain school a society. Because of traits inherent to humanity that make certain forms f government impossible may prevent humanity from allowing a system of this type to exist unless there is an outside threat Ala invaders from space or rival humans; basically the work of science fiction authors

    Maybe maybe not I take your point however we used to be allowed to keep slaves or go for a spot of badger baiting but people change and evolve create new ideas etc.

    We cannot say for certain what the people who come after us will value but the world is so global now I believe people will feel like they have a stake in each others backyard even if we don't feel like that about each other today.

    Your anecdote while true isn't really comparable. You are asking for a complete change in human nature. While throughout history slavery has not always been a supported thing by everyone, its more culturally based than a base instinct like self preservation and independence. No doubt though the world is becoming more global and interventionist and there is no better place to see that than America post WW1
