There are numerous changes that have become a reality in the world
today. Among these is the rise of the political right in Western
countries, which have for decades been bastions of tolerance and
liberalism. The rise of the right is a cause of concern especially
considering that Western nations are increasingly focusing inwards;
resulting in a threat to the liberal order that has sustained the world
for decades. While it is the democratic right of all individuals in the
world to choose the government that they feel best protects their
interests, it is also important that they also consider their
responsibility to others. Thus, the election of a leader like Donald
Trump, with his nationalistic agenda, to the most powerful position in
the world as President of the United States, puts the established global
order at risk. It is, therefore, important that all the people with the
ability to exercise their democratic right to ensure that they use it
responsibly for the benefit of mankind rather than nationalistic
interests.
