THE NATION IN THE GLOBALIZATION ERA
THE NATION IN THE GLOBALIZATION ERA

Summary/Abstract: The nation integrates the populations into a community of citizens whose existence legitimizes the internal and external action of the state. The latter, an instrument of the nation, is acting at the same time to integrate populations by citizenship and to act in the world of nations - political units. Globalization is no longer based on expansionist impulses, but on new infrastructures and means of global governance and exercise of governance, which have altered power relations in the present world.In the era of globalization, the traditional correlation between the national organization of the military, namely the national defense and the territorial nation-state, has undergone transformations in the sense that the elaboration of a national defense policy, starting from the defense strategy decisions up to the deployment and the use of military force is integrated into a matrix of institutionalized consultation and cooperation mechanisms, both bilateral and multilateral, both formal and informal.
