Sommario/riassunto: | Virtual States analyses the role of the state in a globalising, wired society. Everard argues that while information technology poses fundamental challenges to the inclusionary/exclusionary processes of state-making, this will not mean the decline but rather the mutation of the state. Everard goes on to look at the different ways in which states react to the wired society in the developing and developed worlds and the impact of these reactions on those excluded from this society. |
