this makes me think of the progressive ideation: "think global, act 
local" which first-order I support/ascribe to.  Your point illuminates 
higher order issues with this.     I always felt it held a strong 
component of hubris that any of us could actually effectively *think 
global*.   A variation more apt might be "feel global, act local"?


I presume there are network theoretic models/treatments of aspects of 
this phenomena?
