Short description:
The chapters in this book explore the nature of the relationships between state and non-state actors in an evolving global economic order, where both strive to continue the same system of economic production under new conditions.
MoreLong description:
Traditionally in International Relations, power and authority were considered to rest with states. But recently, in the light of changes associated with globalisation, this has come under scrutiny both empirically and theoretically. This book analyses the continuing but changing role of states in the international arena, and their relationships with a wide range of non-state actors, which possess increasingly salient capabilities to structure global politics and economics.
