Decided by whom, exactly?
What better way to thwart the concept that the native people of any country should decide how it's run other than to ensure it is not owned by those natives any more. IE no borders in as many countries as possible. We'll need a supra-national government to oversee the rules surely.
No, only one which can operate the flexible borders.
All except certain stubborn ones like Russia, China, Hungary, Poland etc. I wonder why they resist this.
That will be the Russia currently occupying the Crimea will it? Where the President is able to eliminate any opposition..that one? Ditto China, the country which recently fell for appointing its President for life...that one?
Go on, try and wind back the clock. It just means even greater dislocation in the future. Global economies, global politics, are a fact of life. Not an evil plot, just the consequence of technology and capitalism integrating with each other.
It's perfectly possible to work together with other nations to try to influence this global world and to punish those who try to exploit it for themselves. And that's not what we are doing. That is what we are leaving.
Given that, constructing ever more inward-looking regimes is the action of people who want the world to go away. Of course it won't. It will just go on without us as we become the next Albania. Sooner or later that will be unsustainable and the shock will be enormous.
