Thomas Friedman wrote a book on globalisation called "The World is Flat" (pictured) about globalization of the supply chain supposedly keeping nations from waging war with each other – they do not want to risk the economic consequences of waging war because economies are inter-woven. This globalization theory is really just a half-baked idea that makes nations more vulnerable to the forces of CORPORATIONS, who become the SUBSTITUTE government in such a scheme.

Doing some research, I came upon this man:

"Political Parties: A Sociological Study of the Oligarchial Tendencies of Modern Democracy" Paperback – September 2, 2016 (reprint of a 1911 book)
by Robert Michels
about "the iron law of oligarchy", political parties and organizations tend towards oligarchy with only a select few in charge
one of the comments on Amazon:
"Michels was a member of a socialist movement who wondered if one could ever have what today is called participatory democracy. The result is this wonderful book, in which Michels discovers the "Iron Law of Oligarchy", that even in the most egalatarian movements, elites will call most of the shots. Michels goes further than many elite theorists who simply claim that this has always been so: he claims that elite management is inherent to complex organizations. Whether you agree or disagree, you must read this man and debate his ideas!

The iron law of oligarchy is a political theory, first developed by the German sociologist Robert Michels in his 1911 book, Political Parties.[1] It claims that rule by an elite, or oligarchy, is inevitable as an "iron law" within any democratic organization as part of the "tactical and technical necessities" of organization.[1]
Michels stressed several factors that underlie the Iron Law of Oligarchy. Darcy K. Leach summarized them briefly as: "Bureaucracy happens. If bureaucracy happens, power rises. Power corrupts."[3] Any large organization, Michels pointed out, has to create a bureaucracy in order to maintain its efficiency as it becomes larger—many decisions have to be made daily that cannot be made by large numbers of disorganized people.
For the organization to function effectively, centralization has to occur and power will end up in the hands of a few. Those few—the oligarchy—will use all means necessary to preserve and further increase their power.
The "iron law of oligarchy" states that all forms of organization, regardless of how democratic they may be at the start, will eventually and inevitably develop oligarchic tendencies, thus making true democracy practically and theoretically impossible, especially in large groups and complex organizations. The relative structural fluidity in a small-scale democracy succumbs to "social viscosity" in a large-scale organization.
According to the "iron law," democracy and large-scale organization are incompatible.

So – the answer to this "inevitability" is —
make our democracies smaller
under the umbrella and protection of the Constitutional guarantees
