From the page: "If elites, like the poor, have always been with us, what distinguishes Rothkopf's superclass is its transnational orientation and global bent. Most members are thoroughly cosmopolitan and often post-national in outlook, and they believe, often correctly, that they have more in common with one another, whatever their national status, than they do with citizens back home. To Rothkopf, the global orientation of the superclass poses certain problems: the centralization of unparalleled power in the hands of a tiny, rootless minority, most obviously. But it also suggests the possibility that this group of cosmopolitan elites, in the absence of effective institutions of global government, will take the lead in providing, if only in a de facto way, stable and prudential global governance through farsighted agenda setting, leadership and policy guidance and execution. We'll see."
