Turkey and the EU
One obvious characteristic of world affairs today is rapid – possibly accelerating-- change. When I wrote about ‘Turkey and the EU’ for the Academia Europaea meeting in Vienna October 2012, my subtitle was ‘A Changed Context’. In 2012 the EU was still in the grip of the crisis over the euro, which had teetered on the brink of collapse and was only just beginning to look a little more secure. In contrast, Turkey had experienced an amazing economic…
Competing Identities and Turkey’s Future
One frequent observation about the contemporary world is that the pace of change appears to be accelerating. Turkey is a case in point, and the same is true of Turkey’s relationships with the Middle East, the European Union, and the wider world. All have continued to evolve at such an astonishing rate that almost the only constant has been change itself. Early in the millennium Turkey appeared to have managed the difficult transition from a long …

The History and Dynamics of Globalisation
Globalisation involves geographically wider transaction networks and has multiple interrelated dimensions. The globalisation process has geographical scope, volume and density of transactions, and a direction and pace of change. Globalization has a long history, and the local and the global have almost continuously interacted. Most forward changes have been incremental, and there have also been major reversals or almost complete system-breakdowns…
Turkey and the EU
In 2005 the European Union (EU) began formally to negotiate Turkey's application to become a full member. Today, the EU is a very different organization, Turkey has also experienced major changes, and the Arab Spring has dramatically impacted the Middle East. In sum, there is a changed context for the evolving relationship between Turkey and the EU. This article explains that context and concludes that, for the foreseeable future, Turkey is unlik…
Globalization
Written by two leading scholars of global politics, Globalization: the return of borders to a borderless world? is a major new book for students of globalization. It describes and explains globalization and its origins, and examines its future in light of key recent political and global trends and events. The text: identifies the different political, economic, technological, and cultural meanings of globalization examines its historical origins f…
NGOs’ Role in Constructing Global Governance
THOMAS G. WEISS AND RORDEN WILKINSON, EDITORS OF THE ROUTLEDGE series “Global Institutions,” in which this new volume by Peter Willetts is the forty-seventh title, observe in a foreword that their aim has been “to provide readers with definitive guides to the most visible aspects of ‘global governance.’” With regard to this volume, certainly, their use of the strong term “definitive” is no exaggeration. Willetts has been researching and writing a…

Post-internationalism and IR Theory
This paper suggests that the central question in IR theory today is not perhaps how “the international” should be conceived, rather what role either the state and interstate relations continue to have in a globalizing world with numerous actors of different types engaged in almost every significant issue. Postinternational theory advances this worldview in an aggressive fashion. Yet it is also true that (a) traditional theoretical perspectives co…
The crisis of the state in a globalizing world
The sovereign territorial state now appears to have been a contingent product of a particular time and space—early modern Europe. In fact, it is a very distorted view of even the Westphalian era not to recognize that it was always at least as much about empires as it was about states. Looking back, the entire Westphalian era is but a small slice of human history that itself has been quite varied and is still in transition—if not transformation—in…
On the Cutting Edge of Globalization
Institutions with Authority, Autonomy, and Power
In Rules for the World, Michael Barnett and Martha Finnemore have written a forthright and path-breaking constructivist book that not only challenges the familiar realist and neorealist argument that international organizations (IOs) are entirely subservient to their member states but also the neoliberal assumption that international institutions are generally beneficent in character. In a sense, Barnett and Finnemore are addressing a great debat…
Public-Private Relationships in Global Politics
In 1999 Claire Cutler, Virginia Haufler, and Tony Porter published a pioneering collection of essays on the subject of Private Authority and International Affairs. Although Bruce Hall and Thomas Biersteker's The Emergence of Private Authority in Global Governance is not strictly speaking a sequel, it is a splendid follow-on to the earlier book and a major contribution in its own right to the burgeoning literature on the role of private (that is, …
Illusions of superpower
This article recalls the perennial debates in international relations theory regarding power, applied to the common assumption that the United States is a "superpower" and especially the "War on Terror." There have been startingly different assessments of the power of the United States since the end of World War II. A central problem derives from bad theory, specifically realism and its familiar list of "power factors" that supposedly contribute …
What Is the Polity
The sovereign state became the dominant political form in a relatively brief period that began in Westphalian Europe and continued with European colonization. Contemporary states face increased challenges from inside and outside, and a global crisis of authority looms. Although the state as a form is highly variable and not about to disappear, a growing number and variety of other polities are moving toward center stage. The initiators of this ro…
Global Politics at the Turn of the Millennium
Identity politics is increasingly a target of research and a subject of theory in global politics. Identity is as much a structural condition as power and, like power, is conditioned by historical forces. The territorial state was the product of a unique configuration of historical conditions. Contemporary trends are eroding the state and the state system and ushering in significant shifts in human identities and loyalties. Citizenship and nation…
Technology and the transformation of global politics
This article looks at some of the implications of technological change for contemporary global politics. Among the most important of the consequences of innovations, especially in microelectronics, has been to erode the primacy of the territorial state and to hasten the end of the epoch of ‘international’ politics that is usually dated from the 1648 Treaty of Westphalia. Among the key consequences of the microelectronics revolution are the prolif…
Looking Backwards at Contemporary Polities
In T.H. White’s The Once and Future King, Merlin turns the young Arthur into a bird so that he can take to the skies and gain a more accurate vision of the world below.1 A key lesson was the relative insignificance of boundaries seen from above: [Arthur] saw the problem as plain as a map. ... Frontiers were imaginary lines. The imaginary lines on the earth’s surface only needed to be unimagined. The airborne birds skipped them by nature. How mad …

Dependencia has emerged as a major organizing concept in much of the literature, and "bureaucratic politics" has provided a focus for some of the work emanating from North American scholars on U.S. Latin American policies. …

The State, Conceptual Chaos, and the Future of International Relations Theory
The authors argue that the concept of the state cannot contribute to - may indeed be detrimental to - the development of international relations theory; they propose an alternative "humanistic" agenda for theory building.
