I think this was the source of the conflab. It doesn't appear to read as racism. Perhaps I am on the wrong track?

World order faces jungle law terror: Annan

REUTERS[ FRIDAY, JANUARY 23, 2004 11:52:02 PM ]

DAVOS: UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said on Friday the world faced a combination of security threats and economic dangers that put the entire international order in jeopardy.



Annan said terrorism and the global war against it threatened to undermine human rights and split the world along cultural, religious and ethnic lines.



“Business...has a powerful interest in helping to prevent the international security system from sliding back into brute competition based on the laws of the jungle,” he told corporate leaders at the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland .



“In just a few short years, the prevailing atmosphere has shifted from belief in the near-inevitability of globalisation to deep uncertainty about the very survival of our tenuous global order,” Annan said.



Collective security and the role of the world body itself were under serious strain, the UN chief added.



Annan appealed directly to heads of the world’s leading companies to use their influence with governments to bring about fairer trade and enhance security.



He said business must play a vital part in averting conflicts which were often related to struggles to control natural resources. Reuters
