First individuals, now companies with foreign policies (Google singling out Darfur)

Google singles out Darfur for special attention.

There are a lot of other crises in the world. By singling out this one, Google is both contributing to helping solve it, and also throwing many other situations into the shadows.

As I said before, “I am an individual with a foreign policy.”

The new game of non-state actors is much more complex than it seems at first. The waning power of the state is not really about terrorism, but about the increasing mismatch between the pace of modernity and the pace of the arbitrary glacial rate of change embodied in government.
