I could see possibly some kind of world union, mostly in name.
A world state is not really viable economically, nor from a management standpoint. Every problem in the world becomes one states problem.
I view it like a sea going ship. If it has just one large empty space in the hull, when it gets a hole anywhere it is pretty much done for. Ships typically have compartments to mitigate this problem - if you get a hole, the compartment with the hole takes on the water and other compartments may be spared. This still effects the whole ship and it will lean or have problems if one compartment gets a hole, but it won't necessarily sink if the other compartments can keep it floating. Without the compartments the whole thing just fills up with water and it would sink if the hole isn't patched somehow.
