商品簡介
Sweeney (international studies, U. of Leeds, UK) examines the role of the state and state sovereignty in Europe as impacted by the interrelated processes of integration and economic neo-liberal globalization. He makes a number of core claims about the topic that inform his analysis including the idea that the state is an active participant in its own institutional alteration under globalization and integration, the argument that globalization has occurred in two stages after World War II (the first being the establishment of multilateral institutions and the second being the freeing of capital movement), and the ongoing importance of nationalism.
