My perspective: It doesn't exist.
It's a catchphrase like "the 20th century", frequently used, but implying no organization (all those corporations that were the "20th century"
(like the beer, Dos Equis... yes, that's really what the 2 X's stand for) were not in collusion and "20th century" anything didn't mean a pile of
beans.
There's no such beastie.
I do see the world moving toward a "Star Trek" like system, where there's a unified world council and easy access to other nations. I see it as a
part of natural societial growth (just as we grew from little city-states into larger nations) that will keep us all from blowing each other off the
face of the planet.
Citizens (historically) gained more than they lost when their towns became part of a larger city-state and when city-states became nations. Greater
strides in justice and equality were made as areas came together.
So there. Longwinded answer. "Doesn't exist, but we will end up with a unified world which will do us all good in the future."
