Summary

A Global World?focuses on the complex interplay between existing and emerging political structures. It relates changes in the world's political landscape to economic and cultural changes, and assesses the possibilities for genuinely global politics. Individual chapters discuss the problems of uneven development associated with the creation of "global regions" like the North American Free Trade Zone and the European Union, the pressures imposed on the state by supra-state developments and sub-state regional movements, variations in the world of Islam and their global significance; the scope for transnational politics and social movements as exemplified by environmentalism, and the global tensions caused by uneven development and uneven responses.
