Beskrivning
Observing the dramatic shift in world politics since the end of the Cold War, Peter J. Katzenstein argues that regions have become critical to contemporary world politics. This view is in stark contrast to those who focus on the purportedly stubborn persistence of the nation-state or the inevitable march of globalization. In detailed studies of technology and foreign investment, domestic and international security, and cultural diplomacy and popular culture, Katzenstein examines the changing regional dynamics of Europe and Asia, which are linked to the United States through Germany and Japan.Regions, Katzenstein contends, are interacting closely with an American imperium that combines territorial and non-territorial powers. Katzenstein argues that globalization and internationalization create open or porous regions. Regions may provide solutions to the contradictions between states and markets, security and insecurity, nationalism and cosmopolitanism. Embedded in the American imperium, regions are now central to world politics.

Recensioner i media

"This fascinating book tells us a lot about the future. It expands our understanding of the interaction of regions in a global system. Peter J. Katzenstein is one of the few scholars in the world with the ability to compare Europe and Asia in the framework of U.S. power. A World of Regions draws on his considerable skills to examine culture and institutions, military power and domestic political processes. This is a big contribution."—Peter Gourevitch, University of California, San Diego
