Nowadays political territoriality is profoundly put to the test by globalization, the rise of the networksociety, international migration and new types of risk that state governments find hard to control. Yet, new political configurations do not invalidate the relevance of territory and territorial identity right away. Moreover, people who want to escape or forget foreign dominace still reach for the traditionally sovereign state (Eastern Europe, Asia).In this book an international group of political geographers analyse the meaning of postmodern transfromation in territoriality at different geographical scales: global, (inter) national and local. They cover such varied topics as the probability of a clash between civilizations, the rise of Worldcities, the disintegration of African States, ethnic conflicts and politics in Europe, the meaning of a supranational territorial order (European Union), the end of the welfare state, nationbuilding and its symbols, Israeli cultural politics, urban regimes and local conflictdefense mechanisms. The perspectives put forward, match more general theoretical geography and political science and involve case studies from different parts of the World.This important new study is of immediate interest to students of all levels of politcial science, sociology, social geography, administrative science, international relations, contermpoary history, and to policy makers and politicians.
