    CO1 Topic 4 The Global Interstate System

    Uploaded by

    Naomi Samaniego
    Globalization has affected governments in several ways: it imposes pressure to conform to free market principles or risk falling behind; it has led to the growth of international laws and organizations; and it has increased transnational activism and communication. Intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) like the UN, WTO, NATO and ASEAN facilitate international cooperation and bind nation-states. While some argue globalization has replaced states, in reality states remain accountable to international norms and pressures while still maintaining authority over specific territories.

    STATE
    A compulsory political organization with continuous

    legitimate use of physical force in the enforcement of its
    orders
    - Weber (1997)
    NATION-STATE

    NATION
    Emphasizes the organic ties that hold groups of people
    together and inspire a sense of loyalty and belonging – i.e.
    ethnicity, language, religion and others.

    - Schattle (2014)
    NATION-STATE

    NATION-STATE

    A political community that emanates from civic society to


    execute peace legitimately.
    The NATION:

    1. imagined community (e.g. Pacman, Pia Wurtzbach)


    2. limited (different from religion and geography)
    3. self-govern (Muslims of Mindanao)
    PEACE OF WESTPHALIA
    (1618-1648)

    2. Return of Christian values in Europe
    3. Refusal to accept the Napoleonic Code
    4. Renewed peace in Europe through great power
    NATION – STATE
    • Coercive authority over specific territories (Max Weber)
    • Independent political communities with governments (Hedley Bull)
    • An imagined political community (Benedict Anderson)
    Scholars like Apparudai and Ohmae claimed that globalization
    has supplanted the states,

    But it has not.


    The states are accountable to a host of international norms and standards, find
    themselves in subordinate positions to protect their economy and face a new
    kind of pressures of supranational integration and focus of local fragmentation
    (Schattle, 2014)

    Globalization has not displaced the state.
