I can see things moving slowly in the direction of a world democracy - slowly being the operative word.  I can see certain countries like the United States having a lot of trouble giving up jurisdiction though.  It will be decades before may countries could join though.  You'd be looking at something containing the EU, Canada, maybe places like Japan, Australia, New Zealand (or what were those places).

I would venture a guess that discussions of such ideas take place from time to time behind closed doors at the UN.
