The New System of Global Governance

Über den Autor

Biographical information about the author
A characteristic feature of Georg von Goldbach's life is probably this polarity between his firm roots in tradition and family on the one hand, and his great geographical and intellectual mobility on the other. Throughout his life, he maintained his center in the Allgäu-Swabian homeland, even during his various studies in Munich, Berlin, Paris and Boston, which he completed with two academic master's degrees and a PhD. This also applies during his professional career from 1983 to 2023, when he worked as a political advisor and management consultant in more than 50 countries on 4 continents, always keeping the center of his life in his birthplace. Just being Swabian or German was, however, not sufficient for him. Becoming a citizen of the world became his self-determination and the purpose of his life.
This is perhaps a direct reference to the central message of this book, which calls for a conscious recognition of the historical, geographical, and cultural roots of peoples and nations. The strength that such roots confer is a crucial foundation for leaving a positive impact during the storms and challenges of geopolitics.
Georg von Goldbach's academic education is based on the three pillarsof political economy, social anthropology and consulting for organizational development and international strategic reform processes. This also indicates the perspectives taken for his analysis of international economic and political events, as well as related processes. Social anthropology may well be seen as the bridging link, because it presumes that the human being in the context of the living environment has to be put at the center of all considerations. The Swabian poet and thinker Bert Brecht put it rightly when he said: Man is Man's fate. If we want to understand this word deeply and also take it seriously, then we embark directly on the common path to freedom and peace, which this book also wants to point out to humanity.
