The essays grouped together in this volume look from differing
angles at the crisis of condence faced by the contemporary state.
What we see is the decline of the authority once associated with
the Western nation-state as a source of public order and as a
defender of cultural identity. Multiplying and contradictory rights
claims, the breakdown of a shared political frame of reference, and
attempts by public administration to micromanage society have all
contributed to the threat to authority. What remains to be asked is
whether the Western paradigm of the state can be restored to the
basis of public faith.
