Research from Global Transformations Reading
Research:
1. Political Globalization as defined by these dimensions: political power, authority and forms of rule.
2. Modern Nation-State: "inner world" vs. "outer world" (two different sets of choices)
3. Many Easter Civilizations developed in relative isolation, which has kept their influence from spreading as in the West
4. Political rule/power needs war-making ability to be sustainable.
5. The historical growth of Europe which brought global power expansions also brought about the need for an enhanced demand for organizations that can be able to operate on a larger scale.
6. Global Politics captures the idea of how political relationships stretch over space and time. How choices made can affect a wide-reaching population.
7. Shift from international to cosmopolitan law, humanitarian laws which have been enacted that can transcend power of nation-state and can transcend political boundaries.
8. Current shift from purely state-centric politics to a more complex form of multilayered global governance. The potential for a universal political organization is possible (also called "new medievalism")
9. Military Globalization, an argument that all states are now enmeshed in a world military order.
10. Currently there seems to be a return to a traditional pattern of multipolar power politics but with a "firepower gap" that still favors the U.S.
