I could pretty much say the opposite of everything you say and be correct as well:
IP addressing is not centralized.
DNS has a distributed common namespace with lots of delegation.
HTTP is peer to peer.
The easiest book to read about the personalities and history of this stuff is probably "the innovators" by walter isaacson.
If I compare the networking we came up with to the other types of networks available in the day the ip protocols were invented, I think what we have is remarkable.
