Globalia offers a daring political satire that dissects the mechanisms of oligarchic neoliberal democracy. Behind the bloody distinctions of nation and race, a universalizing democracy has been imposed in Globalia. Society now enjoys health and prosperity but is numbed in a consumptive paroxysm. Everyone speaks the same language, are radical environmentalists, neurasthenics, idle, and addicted to cosmetic surgery. To maintain cohesion, residents are kept in an unconscious self-absorption by the media and frightened by continuous terrorist attacks. As the terrorist attacks are diminishing, the Globalian authorities have decided to create a New Enemy to guarantee terror. This enemy will be an element of the system whose function is to cement its values even more... A humorous farce of contemporary society and an unflattering reflection of a probable future.
