How do you envision such a body? I'm not against the idea per se, but a centralized global government worries people and I can understand the concern. Personally, I think that the role of diplomacy needs to increase and likely the way that diplomacy is conducted needs to change. If there were some way of providing strong enforcement other than by the use of state militaries, then I think that diplomacy would be much more effective.
