As the world undergoes rapid technological and economic change, so
too the role and functions of the State are being challenged. There
are those who argue that that the nation state has come to an end
and that we are entering a new phase in the territorial ordering of
the world system. Others hold that boundaries have disappeared and
that a globalized world has no need or use for artificial,
man-made, territorial barriers.
The contributions here seek to determine the extent to which states
and boundaries have, in fact, disappeared, or are simply changing
their functions as we move from an era of fixed territories into a
post-Westphalian territorial system. A group of international
political geographers and political scientists examine the changing
nature of the state, pointing to significant changes on the one
hand, but equally noting the continued importance of territory and
boundaries in determining the political ordering of the post-modern
world.
