The democratic nation state of the post-war era has undergone major
transformations since the 1970s, and political authority has been
both internationalized and privatized. The thirteen chapters of
this edited collection deal with major transformations of
governance arrangements and state responsibilities in the countries
of the OECD world. A unified conceptual and explanatory framework
is used to describe trajectories of state change, to explain the
internationalization or privatization of responsibilities in the
resource, law, legitimacy and welfare dimensions of the democratic
nation state, and to probe the state's role in the today's
post-national constellation of political authority. As the
contributions show, an unravelling of state authority has indeed
occurred, but the state nevertheless continues to play a key role
in emerging governance arrangements. Hence it is not merely a
'victim' of globalization and other driving forces of change.
