Less visible but perhaps even more powerful are some secret organizations ensconced in many of the most influential nations where they claim the loyalty of certain financial, political and intellectual elites. There are legitimate questions about the real role and objective of the secretive but not secret Bilderberg Group which has become the subject of some unflattering media coverage but more elusive and ominous is the so called Octopus, alleged to be at the heart of the largest supra-national criminal syndicate in the world, the "black network" referred to in the Interpol report on the BCCI scandal and described in the 1994 ATLAS Report of the Belgian Gendarmerie on the financial investigation into the Camuele case. There is also extensive literature on the the Masonic group which is supposed to sponsor the Anglo-Saxon Plan for continued global domination, described in various reports of the investigative Project Camelot as the heir to Cecil Rhodes's secret Inner Circle of the Round Table Organization which was (and still is) at the heart of the Rhodes Foundation.
There is hence a real prospect for the future global society to be dominated by certain cartels controlling, through the most advanced technologies (the so so-called "fourth stage of money laundering"), the drug, gambling, arms and prostitution industries on a universal scale and vying for even greater power through the covert selective or indiscriminate resort to economic, biological and genetic warfare (through nano-bio-agents) with the likely complicity of some states, already under the control of what Prof. Peter Dale Scott defines as the Deep State, vividly portrayed by Joan Perkins as a "criminal hidden ruling structure" in his book Confessions of an Economic Hitman (2004)
On the other hand, the turbo-capitalism described by Edward Luttwak in his 1999 book produces high-tech's "super-tycoons" like Bill Gates, Craig Venter, Steve Jobs, Sergei Brin or Larry Page who are more powerful and richer than many states, like the independent warlords of yore.
Whether humans rise to a post-human condition or become truly human, depending upon the definition we give to "humanity", the fact is that we will have to answer the rhetorical question posed by Amkreutz (ibid): "what do we do with the institutions (and constitutions) our fathers founded on "self-evident" natural principles"? He proceeds to point out that digeality will --render Left and Right meaningless and create a new reality which transcends both capitalism and socialism", as geopolitics will be absorbed in noopolitics "which is about mindsets, not territories". That new reality would require some form of economy of communion, as the basis for the kind of associative democracy being experimented in some regions of Italy , Portugal and Latin America .
