From Chapter 3 of 3001: The Final Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke (1997):
"Mr. Poole," she began, in a very businesslike voice, "I've been appointed your official guide and -- let's say -- mentor. My qualifications -- I've specialized in your period -- my thesis was 'The Collapse of the Nation-State, 2000-50.'"

No power vaccuum lasts very long. My fear is that the nation-state devolves into a new oligarchy, where power and wealth are the purview of trans-natioanl mega-corporations.
Aka, the new feudalism.
