ORDINEA NEO-WESTFALIANĂ ȘI DREPTUL POPOARELOR LA UN MEDIU INTERNAȚIONAL PAȘNIC ȘI STABIL
THE NEO-WESTPHALIAN ORDER AND THE PEOPLE'S RIGHT TO A STEADY AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ENVIRONMENT

Summary/Abstract: At the beginning of XXI-st century, academics and also, the strategic re-alignments are focusing again on the neo-Westphalian trend which emphasises the central role of nation-state, in comparison with globalization understood as an objective process (the state representing a territorial but powerful actor, capable to control the transnational fluxes that are putting in danger its independency, its sovereignty or that are presenting the risk of fainting the jurisdictional traditional mechanisms over its people), and also, in relation with non-state actors. We can note an order of sovereign states, with equal rights, discovering again the full meanings of UN Charter principles -until now, seen as obsolete and insignificant, under the powerful impact of globalisation-. Neo-Westphalism is emphasising the powerful character of nation-state, the enforcement of sovereignty, political and economical independency, and territorial integrity concepts, where states are seen again as principal actors and the only entities endowed with sovereignty, capable to shape the international order and to take decisions regarding it
