Or even to an ecology of cooperating and competing "civil society"
meshworks.  This would be, to some extent, a return to the pattern of
Europe before the rise of the modern state, when there was really no
such thing as territorial sovereignty.  King, feudal lords, mercantile
leagues, and church coexisted without any single authority capable of
regulating relations between them.
