The end of the Cold War, as well as recent progress towards
economic integration among countries in various regions,
revolutionary advances in communications technologies, and the
rapid emergence of global social networks, has resulted in profound
transformations in structures of political authority around the
world. The role of the modern nation-state continues to be crucial,
especially for the production of public goods such as security and
welfare, yet states cannot address the most pressing problems
facing their own citizens without moving away from traditional
understandings of sovereignty itself. disciplines of political
science, international relations, sociology, and political economy.
The essays in this volume examine the meaning of 'complex
sovereignty' through a set of conceptual and empirical studies on
such topics as governance in the European Union and North America,
the emergence of public-private partnerships, the adaptation of
established international organizations, and the search for
innovative mechanisms to manage risk. Together, they elucidate a
fascinating and vitally important struggle to give coherence to a
complicated governing system of multiple and overlapping
hierarchies.
