  • The European State in the Twentieth Century and Beyond

    Open AccessPeter CalvocoressiARTICLEInternational Relations1998

    The author claims that the European state in the twentieth century and beyond is neither sovereign in any other than a technical legal sense nor is it national; that it aspires to be the one and pretends to be the other and that these illusions and delusions are malign.
