Though Canada is having second thoughts about dual citizenship, Australia is moving to embrace it. This could legitimate conflicts of allegiance of the kind shown in recent conduct of Greek-Australian MPs (including Andrew Theophanous and Senator Bolkus). If it were possible to abolish nation states, and give every human being universal global citizenship, such conflicts might not matter. But Garret Hardin presents arguments showing that this is not possible.
