Supernational Integration

I hold a "utopian ideal" that one day the world will work as one, meaning we will all live under the same umbrella in every instance- particularly government. Specifically each individual on Earth will be a part of the same civil society, actively partaking in the culture and society which they live in. For this to be accomplished it will take more then just supernational integration, but a destruction of the definition of separate states into one overarching state.
I do argue, however, that before we can reach this civil society there must be supernational integration. This integration brings about a human culture of cooperation, understanding, tolerance, and an overall "togetherness". Creating a pattern of united forces will bridge the gap between continents, cultures, and governments. With this pattern becoming customary, the transition to a unified state for the entire globe will be seamless.
The beasts our world faces with each new day grow in severity and complexity. It takes more then just one state or "benevolent hegemon" to conquer these beasts. Therefore it is absolutely necessary for state to state cooperation and integration in order to achieve large scale tasks, especially in the name of the citizens of the world. With this in mind, I see the unilateral evolution of humanity to be one under a single state.
