Essai de l’année 2012 dans le domaine Politique - Sujet: Globalisation, l'économie politique, note: 1,0, Institut d`etudes politiques de Lille (Institut d'Études Politiques de Lille), cours: Économie de la Mondialisation, langue: français, résumé: Les effets politiques de la mondialisation sont estimés tout autant qu'en révolutionnaires que contradictoires. On pourrait d'un coté interpréter l'époque actuelle comme étant période de transition. Une transition causée par le déplacement du pouvoir étatique d'une proportion historique. La mondialisation retirait de l'État, depuis longtemps la forme d'organisation politique incontestablement dominante, de son autorité en transférant de ses fonctions habituelles aux auteures trans- et inter-étatique. Parmi ces acteurs surtout, et dans ce qui suit focalisés, les organisations internationales (OI), les organisations non-gouvernementales transnationales (ONG) et les entreprises transnationales (ET). En revanche, les sceptiques de ce développement constatent que les États nation maintiennent énergiquement leur autorité dans plusieurs domaines principales du gouvernement. Et cela à bon escient, comme sur la scène internationale ce sont seuls les États qui possèdent la légitimité de médiatiser leurs populations et d'établir un encadrement du droit obligeant. Selon la perception moderne, un gouvernement, soit nationale soit internationale, n'est légitime qu'il remplisse les conditions de la responsabilité et de la transparence. Voilà le problème de la régence d'une multitude des acteurs différents. Le sujet de cet essai est donc la souveraineté étatique de fait et fonctionnellement contesté par les effets politiques de la mondialisation. Ce premier doit, dans ce qui suit, être défini comme : L'autorité suprême de l'État sur son territoire national (souveraineté interne) et dans l'ordre international (souveraineté externe), où il n'est limité que par ses propres engagements. Les questions qui se posent pour cet Écrit sont les suivantes : 1. Est-ce que l'État nation est un modèle d’organisation humaine obsolète, dépassé par des acteurs inter- et transnationales qui sont mieux capable de remplir ses anciennes fonctions sur une planète d'interdépendances mondiales? 2. Est-ce que la mondialisation signe-t-elle sur le temps long la fin de l'État nation?

Official figures classify some fifty million of the world’s people as 'victims of forced displacement'. Refugees, asylum seekers, disaster victims, the internally displaced and the temporarily tolerated - categories of the excluded proliferate, but many more are left out of count. In the face of this tragedy, humanitarian action increasingly seems the only possible response. On the ground, however, the 'facilities' put in place are more reminiscent of the logic of totalitarianism. In a situation of permanent catastrophe and endless emergency, 'undesirables' are kept apart and out of sight, while the care dispensed is designed to control, filter and confine. How should we interpret the disturbing symbiosis between the hand that cares and the hand that strikes? After seven years of study in the refugee camps, Michel Agier reveals their 'disquieting ambiguity' and stresses the imperative need to take into account forms of improvisation and challenge that are currently transforming the camps, sometimes making them into towns and heralding the emergence of political subjects. A radical critique of the foundations, contexts, and political effects of humanitarian action.

Since its publication this important study has become established as a central work on the vast and contested subject of modern nationalism. Placing historical evidence within a general theoretical framework, John Breuilly argues that nationalism should be understood as a form of politics that arises in opposition to the modern state. In this updated and revised edition, he extends his analysis to the most recent developments in central Europe and the former Soviet Union. He also addresses the current debates over the meaning of nationalism and their implications for his position. Breuilly challenges the conventional view that nationalism emerges from a sense of cultural identity. Rather, he shows how elites, social groups, and foreign governments use nationalist appeals to mobilize popular support against the state. Nationalism, then, is a means of creating a sense of identity. This provocative argument is supported with a wide-ranging analysis of pertinent examples—national opposition in early modern Europe; the unification movement in Germany, Italy, and Poland; separatism under the Hapsburg and Ottoman empires; fascism in Germany, Italy, and Romania; post-war anti-colonialism and the nationalist resurgence following the breakdown of Soviet power. Still the most comprehensive and systematic historical comparison of nationalist politics, Nationalism and the State is an indispensable book for anyone seeking to understand modern politics.
