Rethinking globalism and globalization -- pt. 2. Debating civic and post-nationalism -- pt. 3. Reflecting on old and new nations -- pt. 4. Confronting terror and violence.Globalization has brought with it many difficult and contradictory phenomena: violence, deep national insecurities, religious divisions and individual insecurities. This book takes a critical look at three key areas - globalism, nationalism, and state-terror - to confront common mythologies and identify the root causes of the problems we face. Too many commentators still argue that globalization is predominantly a neo-liberal economic phenomenon; that nation-states are on the way out, and that terror is something that primarily comes from below. Global Matrix exposes the limitations of this argument. The authors explore four main questions: -- What is the cultural-political nature of contemporary globalization? -- How adequate, particularly in the context of nation-states, is a politics of democratic nationalism? -- How are we to understand new and old nations in the context of changes across the late twentieth century and into the present? -- Where does national violence come from and what does it mean for a 'war on terror'?Written by two leading scholars, this is a lucid study of what place the nation-state has in a globalizing world that will appeal to students across the political and social sciences.NationalismTerrorism and globalizationState-sponsored terrorismNationalism.Terrorism and globalization.State-sponsored terrorism.320.54Nairn Tom250189James Paul(Paul Warren),1958-1653174MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910826290503321Global matrix4004317UNINA
