Summary/Abstract: The main argument of the book is that as a result of globalisation processes we may observe a superb example of transformation of the Westphalian international states system into neo-medieval embedded cosmopolitan states. And, maybe even more importantly, that nation states are both objects as well as active creators of those global processes. Those new contemporary form of states create new forms of identities, loyalties and political representations.
