Il filosofo Mosterín riflette sul superamento degli stati-nazione attraverso 
Internet.
In una digital utopia si eviterebbe la netta contrapposizione tra maggioranza e 
minoranza che impongono scelte non accettate da tutti, in quanto ciascuno 
aderisce a quella comunità di cui accetta gli ideali.

Modern liberal democracy is a compromise between the twin ideals of freedom and 
democracy. Mosterín emphasizes their differences: freedom comes down to doing 
what I want to do; democracy, to doing what (the majority of) the others want 
me to do. Rejecting as muddled the metaphysical notion of free will, he focuses 
on political freedom, the absence of coercion or interference by others in my 
personal decisions. Because of the tendencies to violence and aggression that 
lurk in human nature, some constraint on freedom is necessary for peaceful and 
fruitful social life, but the more freedom we enjoy, the better.[24] 
Especially, there is no rational ground for curtailing the cultural freedoms 
(of language, religion and customs) in the name of the nation, the church or 
the party. From this point of view, Internet provides a much more attractive 
model than the obsolete nation-state or the nationalistic movements. Mosterín 
thinks that the nation-state is incompatible with the full development of 
freedom, whose blossoming requires the reorganization of the world political 
system along cosmopolitan lines. He proposes a world without nation-states, 
territorially organized in small autonomous but not-sovereign cantonal 
polities, complemented by strong world organizations.[25]
