Contact with international interests is not precisely participation within the international order. And even then, when you have a solid notion of national identity and role within the system, you again encounter the endogenous antinomies of the international order. Ricardo had the notion that nations did certain things, collectively speaking, more or less well than others, so the exchange of goods would work to the benefit of all. (This, of course, refracts Hegel.) But perhaps there is a correlative as to consumer desire; it similarly varies, and when let loose upon the prospect of distant industrial forms of production, it exists largely to satiate those desires. At every level--individual--community--nation--world, there must be an internal balance, understanding, and sense of identity before rushing into the next. Else, your factories will just be used to fuel the old wars over ancient cities, or, you know, make cheap disposable plastic things that make wealthy people feel marginalinally more satisfied after purchaing them online at two in the morning. May all living beings come to enlightenment.
