World Federalist Movement
The World Federalist Movement (WFM) is a global citizens movement that advocates the establishment of a global federalist system of strengthened and accountable global institutions with constitutional plenary power and a division of international authority among separate global agencies. The organization was created in 1947 by those concerned that the structure of the new United Nations was too similar to the League of Nations which had failed to prevent World War II, both being loosely structured associations of sovereign nation-states, with few autonomous powers.
