Humanist Technology, Human, Cosmopolity

In its most common usage, 'human' is Atomistic--it connotes a property possessed by an individual person, e. g. that they "err".  In contrast, according to Humanist Technocracy, 'human' is Organicist--it connotes both a species and its members, conceiving them as a Whole and its Parts.  Accordingly, one way to de-humanize a person is to treat them as an inanimate object, and another is to detach them from their species, e. g. the Theology of the Salvation of the Individual Soul, which purports to rescue a person from a cursed species.  So, the locus of Humanist Technocracy is the human species, and, hence, the fundamental Political unit is the Cosmopolity, i. e. the doctrine is planetary, though, in the future it could become interplanetary.  Accordingly, Nations and Cities are subdivisions of the Global Village, or, in other words, the prominent Nationalist and Civic traditional Political Philosophies are obsolete with respect to Humanist Technocracy, e. g. "foreign" no longer has meaning.
