The 'issue' of the One and the Many is a 'political' issue.

The 'issue' of the One and the Many is a 'political issue'. However, the problematic is not one of contraries, or, opposites, or some 'dualism'. For Government purposes, the problematic can be further described as a relation between a Top and a Bottom. The Top is Linguistic, or abstract, or a 'Map, the Bottom is 'real'. Whether, a Democracy, an Autocracy, a Dictatorship, or a Divine Right of Kings, form of Government, the real issue is always from where does the Top get its authority to 'govern'. 'To Govern', is a 'Power', that must exist at the Top, or be granted, to the Top. But, from where does the Top get the Power? In the Divine Right of Kings, the Power came from God. In an Autocracy or a Dictatorship, the Top is 'assumed' by some Individual, or Individuals. In some cases, the 'assumption' is by force, fear, or some 'continuing line' of authority. Of course, in a real Democracy, the authority comes from the Bottom, or, stated differently, it comes from the 'Governed'; it is they who grant to the Top the 'Institutional', or, 'political', Power to 'govern'. Power cannot exist in the Individual, whether the Individual is at the Bottom, or the Top. Power, 'emanates' from the 'condition of togetherness', that characterizes the Bottom. That's the only Power that can exist in a Political entity. Once, vested, no matter how, the Power is an 'equal characteristic' of each and every 'Nation' in the World. That's why, the United Nations 'government' works, and that's why, the Internet, which crosses political boundaries, and goes into every individuals 'living room', cannot 'organize' or 'effect' the International community. The National autonomy of every Nation, must be recognized and respected. Only a World Government, or a United Nations, can govern the International scene. Of course, Individuals can bring about Revolutions, but only within their own Nation. If they bring about changes in their own Nation, it might be possible, for that Nation to effect another Nation, but only through the United Nations, never through the Internet. The Internet may facilitate International Communication between 'Individuals', but it does not 'house Power'.
