You seem to describe quite accurately the behavior of organizations, but this is not the entirety of political philosophy. How do you ascribe the motives of individuals in these alliances? It seems, to me, that the role of the individual in your treatise is solely engaged in enlightened self-interest. You also make the assumption that both individual players and organizations are primarily rational in orientation; while I do not doubt that many people are rational and guided by a cognizant frame of mind, irrationality is a major part of human behavior as is evident by countless progroms, persecutions, and prejudice practiced throughout human history. I would be interested in hearing your opinion as to the political and ideological factors that contribute to an individual's choice of alliance or association and what drives an individual to mass movements and organizations to begin with.
